An Arkansas officer was fired after video footage was released showing a man being punched and elbowed while handcuffed in the back of a police car.

The Jonesboro Police Department said in a Facebook post on Friday - the day after the incident occurred - that Joseph Harris’ termination was “effective immediately”.
