A US policeman who was filmed punching a black youth and slamming him against a car has been awarded $1.6m (£890,000) in a race discrimination case.
Jeremy Morse, who was sacked by the Los Angeles police over the incident, said he had been treated more harshly than a black officer who was also there.
A second white officer was awarded $811,000 (£450,000) damages.
Inglewood Police Chief Ronald Banks, who had disciplined the officers, called the awards "ridiculous".
Mr Morse was caught on camera in July 2002 as he arrested 16-year-old Donovan Jackson at a petrol station in Inglewood
