A South Bend police officer accused of hitting an unresisting man will have a hearing today with the Board of Public Safety.
Back in February, Corporal Jason King arrested a man after a high speed chase on South Bend's southwest side.
It was later discovered, on a random review of dash cam video, that King beat the suspect even though the suspect wasn't resisting arrest.
King is working desk duty at the department, pending the outcome of his hearing.
The chief is recommending a demotion to patrolman for a year and a 30 day suspension without pay.
