The Victoria Police Deputy Commissioner of Capability Neil Paterson has condemned the actions of two officers who used excessive force,  during an arrest in Epping, Melbourne.

Paterson, in a press conference on Sept. 15 said: “I form the view that it’s an inappropriate use of force by a police member in regard to the kick or stomp to the head of the man involved in that incident.”
