Man accuses Montreal police of racial profiling after being pepper-sprayed following a traffic stop

MONTREAL -- A Black Montrealer is accusing police of racial profiling after he says he was pepper-sprayed by white officers during a violent arrest.

A video taken June 24 shows Lamine Sale Nkouendji being forcibly removed from his vehicle by two white Montreal police officers. Since then, multiple videos of the same arrest have emerged, showing crowds watching the man screaming in pain as his car was impounded.

CTV News Montreal contacted the SPVM for a comment, but was told that wouldn't be possible before Monday.
