A Northern District police officer, already under scrutiny for allegedly using excessive force, then confiscating witnesses' cell phones June 12, now faces unrelated allegations that he overstepped his bounds in another incident two days earlier.
This time the accusations come from a Washington police officer.
George Mundy, 32, of Dundalk, a patrol officer in the Washington's Metropolitan Police Department's 4th District, said he was off duty, riding his motorcycle June 10, when he was chased, nearly pulled off his bike and ticketed for reckless driving by James Wilder, an officer in Baltimore's Northern District.
The encounter happened two days before an incident at 39th and North Charles streets, in which witnesses claimed that Wilder used excessive force while trying to restore order at the scene of a two-car traffic accident.
The accident escalated into a confrontation among police, onlookers and the family of the driver who was found to be at fault in the accident.
