A Brownsville school dean says he wants
justice after video appears to show MTA
fare enforcement officers forcibly removing him from a bus.
He's accusing them of using excessive force.
Our Estefania Salinas has more on the incident
which was caught on camera.
In this video, a Brooklyn school dean appears
to be forcefully pulled off a city bus
by members of the MTA's Eagle team.
Now, Kyle Taylor and his attorney are accusing members
of the MTA's Eagle team of using excessive force.
Kyle is left traumatized.
I don't want to get on the bus no more
because I'm afraid if anything can happen.
It happened the morning of October 6th
as Kyle Taylor says he was heading to work on the B-14 bus.
Taylor says fare inspectors demanded proof
of payment as he was getting off.
He told them he used a transfer,
but says things escalated when they asked for his ID.
The way he was treated was inhumane, and it's a warning to everyone.
Unless this is stopped, unless the Eagle team is disbanded,
every single one of us could be impacted by it.
Taylor says members of the Eagle team grabbed him,
punched him, and slammed him.
I can't sleep at night.
Taylor shared payment records with News 12,
which shows he's been paying his bus fare every time he rides.
If you pay, it's good. They don't have to take you out.
The NYPD tells News 12 officers responded to the scene
and helped Taylor until EMS arrived.
We also reached out to the MTA for a comment
and are still waiting for a response.
In Brooklyn, Estefania Salinas, News 12.
