Sheriffs arrest a woman with alleged excessive use of force and spray pepper spray in her face

On June 24, two sheriffs arrived at a store at 700 West Avenue in Lancaster for an alleged robbery. Once they arrived, they arrested a man matching the description of the local workers. At that moment, a woman who claimed to be the subject’s wife begins to record the arrest, but one of the bailiffs approaches her to also arrest her, pushes her and subdues her and, moments later, sprays pepper spray in her face.
