Police apologize, release video of arrest, tasing of Bucks' Sterling Brown

The Milwaukee Police Department apologized Wednesday and said officers who "acted inappropriately" have been disciplined after an internal investigation over an incident in which a stun gun was used on Milwaukee Bucks rookie Sterling Brown after he was questioned over a potential parking violation in January.

Body-cam video of the incident was released by the police shortly after Milwaukee Police Chief Alfonso Morales' news conference. Criminal charges against Brown were not pursued, Morales said in a statement read to gathered media.

"I am sorry this incident escalated to this level," said Morales, who did not take questions from reporters.
