Man Beaten By NYPD In Synagogue Speaks Out

Description:"It happened really fast," Ehud Halevy told PIX 11 in his first chance to speak out against the two police officers seen on the video that went viral, that has been called the "Crown Heights Synagogue Smackdown." It started as a argument about leaving the Alternative Learning Institute for Young Adults in Crown Heights, which the shirtless Ehud refused to do. The 21-year-old is then clearly punched repeatedly by one officer while another officer appears to hit him with a baton. (2:09)
