El Paso Police Caught on Camera Using Excessive Force During Arrest

As a seasoned journalist with a knack for cutting through the noise, I’m here to give you the lowdown on the latest controversy surrounding the El Paso Police Department. In a shocking display of force, officers were caught on camera pummeling a man during an arrest, sparking widespread outrage and calls for accountability.

The incident in question occurred on September 7, 2025, when El Paso police responded to a report of an individual assaulting a security guard. According to authorities, the suspect, 25-year-old Nima Dhendup, had struck the guard after attempting to escort a vomiting individual out of the establishment. As officers arrived on the scene, they observed a chaotic situation with 30 to 40 people yelling and the security guard attempting to detain Dhendup.

The viral video, which has been making the rounds on social media, shows several officers taking Dhendup into custody. One officer is seen kneeling on the suspect’s face and repeatedly punching him in the back while he’s kneeling on the ground. The clip then cuts to the same officer hunching over Dhendup, who’s still down on the ground, and slamming his fist into the back of the suspect before pulling out a taser and zapping him.

What’s equally disturbing is that another officer socked a bystander who tried to intervene, highlighting concerns about police brutality and excessive use of force. The El Paso Police Department has confirmed that the footage pertains to the arrest of Dhendup, who has been charged with assaulting a public servant and faces a $10,000 bond.

But that’s not all – another individual, 25-year-old Menda Wangchuk Dorji, was also taken into custody for resisting arrest and ignoring officers’ commands. Dorji is currently locked up in the El Paso County Jail with a $5,000 bond.

The El Paso Police Department has yet to respond to inquiries about the seemingly excessive use of violence by police during the arrest. However, it’s clear that this incident has raised serious questions about police conduct and the need for greater accountability.

As I take a closer look at this story, I’m left wondering what sparked such a violent response from law enforcement. Was the situation truly as chaotic as described, or did officers overstep their bounds? These are questions that need to be answered, and fast.

For now, it’s clear that this incident has sparked a heated debate about police brutality and the need for reform. As the investigation continues, one thing is certain – the public will be watching closely to see how this situation unfolds.

And that’s today’s dose of reality. You’re welcome.
