This is the shocking moment police tried to prise a baby away from its mother in a food assistance centre.
The video shows Jazmine Headley, 23, sitting on the floor at a SNAP centre in Boerum Hill, New York.
Taser-wielding police officers, who were called to reports of a woman being disorderly and blocking a hallway, can be seen trying to physically move the woman.

At one point in the struggle, in order to arrest Headley, they tried to yank her one-year-old out of her arms as she cried: 'They're hurting my son... I'm begging you please.'
Other people can be heard screaming in the background as one woman shrieked: 'Oh my God, oh my God, look what they're doing to us, look what they're doing to her.'
One officer pulled out a stun gun as an onlooker shouted: 'There's a f***ing baby in her hands!'
Headley's mother, Jacqueline Jenkins, said her daughter, who is a cleaner, was at the centre to collect daycare vouchers for a minder who looks after her son, Damone.
She said Headley sat on floor because there were no chairs available and that a security guard called police after she refused to stand up.
'I was devastated to see something like that happen to my daughter and grandson - and how this officer yanking on my grandson to get him out of my daughter's arms,' she told ABC-7.
The video was posted to Facebook where it sparked outrage from viewers.
The woman who uploaded it wrote: '[The mom] made the security guard feel dumb so she called the cops on her and this was the outcome.
'She had her baby in her hands the whole time. I'm so f***ing disgusted with the NYPD.'
At one point in the struggle they tried to take her one-year-old out of her arms as the woman cried: 'I'm begging you please.'
City Council Speaker Corey Johnson called the incident 'unacceptable, appalling and heartbreaking.'
He tweeted: 'I'd like to understand what transpired and how these officers or the NYPD justifies this. It's hard to watch this video.'
State Attorney General-elect Letitia James, released a statement saying: 'No mother should have to experience the trauma and humiliation we all witnessed in this video.'
She added: 'Being poor is not a crime. The actions of the NYPD in this video are appalling and contemptible.
'A full investigation must be conducted immediately, and the results should be made public so there is a transparent accounting of how this horrific situation occurred.
'All involved officers, including the assigned supervisor, should be assigned desk duty pending the investigation results.'
The NYPD said it is investigating the 'troubling' incident.
Headley has been charged with resisting arrest, acting in a manner injurious to a child, obstructing governmental administration and criminal trespassing.
She faces court on Thursday.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
