Met investigates new claims of policeman hitting G20 woman

The police watchdog is to investigate a fresh claim of alleged police brutality after new video footage emerged showing a woman being hit by an officer during the G20 protests.

The Metropolitan officer, who has his identification number covered up, appears to slap the woman across the face before taking out his baton and hitting her on the legs.

The incident happened a day after another officer pushed over newspaper seller Ian Tomlinson, who died of a suspected heart attack shortly after.

The new incident, which appeared on the website You Tube, is another blow for the Met which has already faced intense criticism over Mr Tomlinson.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission has already received around 120 complaints about police actions during the G20 protests.
