Montgomery County has settled a lawsuit with a man who was kneed in the back of the head two years ago by a county police officer during an arrest.
Officer Kevin Moris was seen on video kneeing Arnaldo Pesoa, now 21, outside an Aspen Hill McDonald’s in July 2019. Police said they were arresting Pesoa for selling psilocybin mushrooms – a type of drug that can cause hallucinations. As Moris tried to handcuff Pesoa on the ground, the officer struck Pesoa using his knee.
