A police officer in McKinney, Texas, has been placed on administrative leave after a shocking video showed him pulling his gun on a group of unarmed black teens leaving a pool party, the Dallas Morning News reported.

..

Officers were reportedly responding to calls that the teens were not supposed to be at the residential community pool. Other callers said the teens had started fighting.

..

Although the crowd was mixed-race, police officers appeared to only target black teens. At one point, the cop in question forcefully threw a black girl on the ground, and pulled out and briefly aimed his gun at a group of black teens who surrounded him. He then proceeded to slam and hold the girl's head against the grassy field.

..

The officer has been identified as Eric Casebolt, according to Zahid Arab, a local reporter at Fox 4.

..

Although some residents complained that the black teens weren't supposed to be at the pool party, local reporter local report Zahid Arab noted the event was advertised on social media.

Research shows that police officers and the public hold subconscious biases against black people, which could explain both why residents called the cops on a group of kids at a public pool party and why the officers reacted so harshly.

..

As part of a study published in the American Psychological Association's Journal of Personality and Social Psychology in March 2014, researchers studied 176 mostly white, male police officers, and tested them to see if they held an unconscious "dehumanization bias" against black people by having them match photos of people with photos of big cats or apes. Researchers found that officers commonly dehumanized black people, and those who did were most likely to be the ones who had a record of using force on black children in custody.
