A police officer has been removed from front-line duties after this video emerged of him appearing to kick and hit a 15-year-old boy in the street.

The unnamed officer can be seen on CCTV grappling with the teenager moments after having calmly restrained him.

The policeman then appears to floor him with a hit to the head and a kick on his body - which one witness described as "unnecessary."

The incident took place in Birmingham, after a 15-year-old was told he would be stopped and searched under the Misuse of Drugs Act, on April 21.
