Johnson told NBC4 he begged the deputies to stop and repeatedly told them he was not resisting. He was eventually arrested for battery on a police officer, though he maintains in the complaint he never engaged in any physical contact with the deputies. Abdulfattah allegedly told Johnson to ‘shut up’ when Johnson said his father needed his inhaler, the complaint stated. LA County Sheriff’s Department officials would not comment on the case except to describe one of the deputies in question as ‘the best deputy in the division.'”
