Tony Shin and Gadi Schwartz report for the NBC4 News at 11 p.m. on Thursday, April 9, 2015. (Published Friday, April 10, 2015) 
  
 The San Bernardino County Sheriff ordered an internal investigation Thursday into an arrest caught on NBC Los Angeles' NewsChopper4 video that showed deputies beating a suspect when they caught up with him following a desert chase on horseback. 
  
 Aerial footage showed the man falling off the horse he was suspected of stealing during the pursuit in San Bernardino County Thursday afternoon. 
  
 He then appeared to be stunned with a Taser by a sheriff's deputy and fall to the ground with his arms outstretched. Two deputies immediately descended on him and appeared to punch him in the head and knee him in the groin, according to the footage, reviewed several times by NBC4. 
  
 The group surrounding the man grew to 11 sheriff's deputies. 
  
 Deputies Beat Man After Horse Chase 
  
 San Bernardino County Sheriff's deputies appeared to beat and kick a man who had stolen a horse and led them on a pursuit. Tony Shin reports for the NBC4 News at 5 p.m. on Thursday, April 9, 2015. (Published Thursday, April 9, 2015) 
  
 In the two minutes after the man was stunned with a Taser, it appeared deputies kicked him 17 times, punched him 37 times and struck him with batons four times. Thirteen blows appeared to be to the head. The horse stood idly nearby. 
  
 The man did not appear to move from his position lying on the ground for more than 45 minutes. He did not appear to receive medical attention while deputies stood around him during that time. 
  
 The man, identified as Francis Jared Pusok, 30, of Apple Valley, was hospitalized with unknown injuries, authorities said. 
  
 Pusok's mother Anne Clemenson blasted the conduct of the deputies, and said she still does not know where her son is, or what condition he is in following the arrest. 
  
 "To me, it was like a joy ride for the cops to do this to him. (It was) brutality. He didn't deserve something like that," Clemenson said. "To Tase him, the beatings that I see them doing to him — it's uncalled for. You see him laying down, and they continue to kick him, hitting him and punching him. Why?" 
  
 His girlfriend, Jolene Bindner, said she hasn't been able to get answers from the Sheriff's Department about Pusok's condition, let alone what hospital he's at. 
  
 RAW VIDEO: Man Shot With Stun Gun, Beaten For at Least 2 Minutes By Officials 
  
 Exclusive aerial footage showed a group of sheriff's deputies kicking and punching a man who led deputies on a pursuit in the Deep Creek area of Apple Valley before 3 p.m. Thursday, April 9, 2015. (Published Friday, April 10, 2015) 
  
 "They have not told me a thing," she said. "How can you be tased and still feel it's necessary to beat him like that? I don't understand." 
  
 Three deputies were injured during the search. Two suffered dehydration and a third was injured when kicked by the horse. All three were taken to a hospital for treatment. 
  
 San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon told NBC4 he was launching an internal investigation into the actions of the deputies. 
  
 "I'm not sure if there was a struggle with the suspect," McMahon said. "It appears there was in the early parts of the video. What happens afterwards, I'm not sure of, but we will investigate it thoroughly." 
  
 The series of events started when deputies from the Victor Valley station went to a home on Zuni Road to serve a search warrant in an identity theft investigation, authorities said in a news release. 
  
 The suspect took off in a vehicle and deputies initiated a pursuit through unincorporated Apple Valley, the town of Apple Valley and unincorporated Hesperia. The area is more than 80 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles.

 Pusok allegedly abandoned the vehicle 40 miles away from Hesperia in a place called Bowen Ranch where he took off running. 
  
 During a search on foot, with off-road vehicles and by helicopter, deputies learned the suspect had stolen a horse and rode it on dirt trails through rugged, steep terrain, causing numerous injuries to the horse. 
  
 A sheriff's helicopter inserted a team of deputies to take the suspect into custody. As deputies made contact with Pusok, the horse threw him off. 
  
 Deputies said the Taser was ineffective due to his loose clothing and a use of force occurred. 
  
 "I can certainly understand the concerns in the community based on what they saw on the video," McMahon said. "I'm disturbed by what I see in the video. But I don't need to jump to conclusions at this point, until we do a complete and thorough investigation. If our deputy sheriff's did something wrong, they'll be put off work and they'll be dealt with appropriately, all in accordance with the law as well as our department policy." 
  
 San Bernardino Superior Court records show Pusok has convictions for resisting arrest, animal cruelty, disturbing the peace, attempted robbery and failure to provide evidence of financial responsibility. 
  
 The American Civil Liberties Union said in a statement that while they understand police officers are authorized to use force, they "are deeply troubled by the video images that appear to show San Bernardino County sheriff's deputies beating a man after he surrendered."

 San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon said the video "disturbed and troubled him" and appeared to show an excessive use of force. 
  
 McMahon announced the action after 30-year-old Francis Pusok was arrested by deputies in a violent encounter filmed by a KNBC-TV helicopter (http://bit.ly/1H8UC3D). Pusok fled by car and then on a stolen horse, traveling several miles while deputies chased him on foot, after deputies tried to serve a search warrant in an identity-theft investigation Thursday. 
  
 The video shows the man dressed in bright red clothing falling from the horse as a deputy runs up and uses a stun gun on him. McMahon said the stun gun was believed to be ineffective because of the man's loose clothing. 
  
 The man falls face down with his arms and legs outstretched and put his hands behind his back. The video shows two deputies appearing to come up and kick him in the head and crotch. Other deputies arrive moments later. 
  
 Two deputies were taken to the hospital for injuries including abrasions, a twisted knee and a back injury from being struck by the horse. Pusok was treated at the hospital for abrasions, bruising and then released to be booked on suspicion of felony evading, theft of a horse, possession of stolen property and reckless driving. 
  
 McMahon said there is an internal investigation as well as a criminal investigation into Pusok's and the deputies' actions. 
  
 He said the department won't release the names of deputies, including a sergeant and a detective, until they're sure that multiple threats made aren't valid. 
  
 "I'm asking for some patience while we complete a thorough and fair investigation," McMahon said. "I am disturbed and troubled by what I see in the video. It does not appear to be in line with our policies and procedures ... I assure you, if there is criminal doing on the part of any of our deputy sheriffs or any policy violations we will take action." 
  
 The deputies were wearing audio recorders, but McMahon said he had not listened to them and the recordings will be part of the investigation. 
  
 Attorneys for Pusok told KNBC-TV Friday as they left the jail that their client has a badly swollen eye, marks from the beating over his face and body, and is in pain. 
  
 "He remembers being beat, and he remembers that he wasn't resisting, that he laid still, he complied immediately. He says that he didn't even move a muscle because he didn't want to be continuously beat, yet it still happened," said attorney Sharon Brunner. 
  
 After the beating, a deputy whispered in his ear: "This isn't over,'" attorney Jim Terrell said. 
  
 "And that's why he's scared to death for himself and his family right now," Terrell said. 
  
 Ken Cooper, a use of force expert, said the deputies were clearly frustrated and appeared to take that out on the man. One, he said, appears to be striking Pusok with the Taser. 
  
 "It doesn't look good. It looks like his hands are behind his back even when they're doing the blows," Cooper said. "The justification for using force is to gain compliance from the suspect, and the suspect seems to be complying. So what this looks like is those blows are not justified, they're not necessary and they're not professional." 
  
 Cooper said the officers should be disciplined, retrained to deal with stress especially, and the video should be used for department-wide training. He said the officers allowed their emotions and adrenaline to overtake their professionalism. But training helps "inoculate" officers from responding improperly during high-stress situations. 
  
 "When chasing a fleeing suspect, in high stress, you have to control that. It's your obligation as a professional. You can lose it sometimes," Cooper said. 
  
 McMahon said deputies had previously been called to Pusok's home where he allegedly made threats to kill a deputy and shot a puppy in front of family members. "We were very familiar with his aggressive nature," McMahon said. 
  
 The beating of Pusok came as recent violent episodes by officers dealing with suspects have provoked outrage after being captured on video, including the shooting death of an unarmed man as he ran from a police officer last weekend in North Charleston, South Carolina. 
  
 Pusok's girlfriend of 13 years, Jolene Bindner, said he has had several run-ins with the law but is a great father. 
  
 "I'm not going to stand here and say that he's perfect, because who is?" she told the TV station. 
  
 "I couldn't believe it," Bindner said after seeing the video. "The first thing I said was 'they cannot do that.'" 
  
 The American Civil Liberties Union released a statement saying it is "deeply troubled by the video images" and applauding McMahon's call for an investigation.

Student:
San Bernardino County is down 10 sheriff's deputies today, all of them placed on paid leave after a TV news helicopter filmed them beating a prone suspect offering no resistance, reports the Los Angeles Times. Sheriff John McMahon did not release their names, citing threats to the department after NBC4 aired its footage. In a follow-up, the station does the rough math: "In the two minutes after the man was stunned with a Taser, it appeared deputies kicked him 17 times, punched him 37 times, and struck him with batons four times. Thirteen blows appeared to be to the head." Suspect Francis Pusok fled deputies who arrived at his house to serve a search warrant in an identity theft investigation, then led police on a long chase that ended with him falling off a horse and being beaten. His attorneys say he is bruised and in pain behind bars, reports AP. "He remembers being beat, and he remembers that he wasn't resisting, that he laid still, he complied immediately," says one. "He says that he didn't even move a muscle because he didn't want to be continuously beat, yet it still happened." Another adds that when the beating stopped, a deputy whispered in his ear, "This isn't over."
