A new video has emerged of Phillip White’s arrest by Vineland police.

As we reported earlier, White died in custody late Tuesday morning after police reportedly let a K-9 attack the handcuffed man as he was subdued on the ground.

The video that was released gives a clearer view on White’s final moments.

A law enforcement official, not connected to the investigation, was deeply disturbed by the actions of the officers involved. Commenting anonymously, the official stated the officers should have called off the dog immediately after bringing White under control. Furthermore, the expert said the officer demanding the recording of the event had no right to do so.

Upon realizing the incident was being filmed, an officer approached the man recording and asked,

“Did you see what happened over here? All of it?”

When the man confirmed that he was recording, the officer demanded his information and attempted to take the footage.

An independent investigation is being launched by White’s family attorney, Conrad Benedetto, who stated, “There are great concerns about the circumstances that surround this death.”

After declining to comment on the initial video released, Vineland police have thus far ignored calls seeking a response on this footage of the incident.

The video, obtained by various news outlets, can be viewed here on ABC 6 Philadelphia News.
