Seattle's Office of Police Accountability, a watchdog agency, said it is investigating the officers involved.

Two Seattle police officers are under investigation after a bystander recorded them beating a man with their batons at a bus stop last week.

In the video, which was posted online and first reported by NBC affiliate KING 5-TV, two officers can be seen hitting a man with their batons last Friday afternoon. In the 40-second clip, one of the officers appears to grab the man’s hair before he uses a knee to pin him down.

The video does not show what occurred before the officers started beating the man.

    Now there’s some irony for you.

    Hope these cops get heavier sentences than the LAPD did back in the 90s.
