MIAMI BEACH (CBSMiami) -- Security video from the garage of the Miami Beach Police Department shows a group of officers milling about, a petite, handcuffed woman standing among them. The woman reaches out her foot, as if to trip one of the officers, who then slugs her in the face and kicks her.

Miami Beach police released the video, along with more than 500 pages of investigative documents Monday, after a lengthy investigation of the incident that occurred in July, 2013.

The woman, Megan Adamescu was left with a swollen face and concussion. The fist-swinging, kicking cop was Officer Philippe Archer. Earlier, he had karate-kicked and punched 50-year-old Andrew Mossberg, leaving Mossberg's face, cheek and forehead bruised and bloody.

Mossberg had come upon the cop, who was wearing a casual shirt and jeans, rummaging through an inebriated Adamescu's purse.

He thought he was seeing a robbery, dialed 911 and shouted out that he was calling the police.

"Apparently that really infuriated him, because he rushed me, kicked me in the head, the left side of the head, and knocks me on the ground," Mossberg told CBS4 News shortly after the incident in 2013. "While I'm on the ground he punches me twice, and I'm knocked out."
