NEW YORK - The New York Police Department is conducting an internal investigation after a video surfaced of another officer using an apparent chokehold on a suspect during an arrest.
Police say the July 14 incident happened at a subway station in East Harlem.
They say 22-year-old Ronald Johns was arrested on a fare-evading charge after walking through an emergency gate without paying. Police say Johns also was charged with resisting arrest and criminal trespass.
