Norman police are investigating the arrest of a man who was allegedly trying to look up women's skirts on the University of Oklahoma campus.
A one-minute video of the arrest of the 23-year-old was posted to Facebook showing four officers on the scene and three of them wrestling with the man on the ground and at least one officer kneeing him in the back.
The man was arrested on a charge of outraging public decency and interfering with the official process. The man remains jailed, but the prosecutor's office says he has not been formally charged.
Norman police chief Keith Humphrey said in a statement that the officers' actions were justified. Humphrey says the department has nothing to hide and will be as transparent as the law allows.
