Controversial arrest caught on police video: Sheila Stevenson and then-Millville police officer Carlo Drogo crossed paths on a cold early morning in February 2008. In the video Officer Drogo was seen accidentally peperspraying himself in the face and he then punches the girl.
It was still dark, around 6 a.m., and Stevenson was riding her bicycle on the sidewalk of North 2nd Street when Drogo, in his patrol car, pulled alongside her. What happened next is now the subject of a lawsuit in Superior Court in which Stevenson alleges Drogo beat her while she was in custody. The officer denies the charges. Drogo resigned from the police force last fall and Stevenson has since been found guilty of resisting arrest. The city of Millville released two videos recorded on cameras in police cruisers at the scene.
