Howard University officials fired two campus police officers and their supervisor after video showed officers dumping a woman from a wheelchair outside the university's hospital.
A male and a female officer were terminated, Metropolitan Campus Police Officers Union President Gabriel Adegoke said. A male supervisor, who ordered the patient be removed from the hospital, was also fired.
The Washington Post reported the incident occurred last month. In the video, a male officer appears to be pushing a barefoot woman in the chair. Her legs are flung in the air when the officer stops abruptly, and she tumbles out of the chair. A second male officer and a female officer watch as the woman hits the ground.
The second male officer was not terminated, Adegoke said.
