A 20-year-old Milwaukee woman has been charged with felony battery after prosecutors accused her of kicking a police officer in the head during a traffic stop in the Harambee neighborhood, according to a criminal complaint filed Tuesday, Oct. 13. Kennedy Gray is accused of kicking Officer Joseph Riojas as he attempted to handcuff a passenger near 202 E. Keefe Ave. on Oct. 8. Riojas was taken to a hospital and diagnosed with a concussion, the complaint says. The stop is also under review by the Milwaukee Police Department after cellphone video of a separate arrest at the scene prompted a family to call for accountability. The video, recorded near Palmer Street and Keefe Avenue, appears to show officers striking 24-year-old Nicholas Beamon while he is on the ground. Beamon’s attorney, LaMarr, has said Beamon told officers he had a firearm and claims he possessed it legally. Beamon was arrested and later released; he has not been criminally charged. According to Gray’s complaint, officers had stopped the vehicle over a license-plate violation. Before the stop, police had received information that a rear-seat passenger might have a gun. The complaint says occupants argued with officers, refused orders to get out of the car and physically resisted. During the struggle, an officer removed a pistol from a passenger’s pocket. Police have said Beamon was armed and did not follow commands. In the cellphone footage, two officers appear to punch him in the head as a third officer approaches. Beamon’s family has described the officers’ actions as excessive force. The department addressed the video in a social media post after it became public, but it had not responded to follow-up questions or made the police chief available for an interview as of Oct. 14. Gray is charged with battery on a public officer, a felony carrying a potential sentence of up to 3½ years in prison and a $10,000 fine. The allegations against her have not been proven in court.
