Family claims police used excessive force in Fairfield pool incident” – FAIRFIELD —Police said it was a case of disorderly conduct and resisting arrest at a Fairfield city pool. Bishop Bobby Hilton said it was the police who were out of order. Both are using the same video to illustrate their point.

Multiple cameras captured the incident at a Fairfield pool last week. On Tuesday, Hilton released video recorded on a cell phone.

In a news conference, Hilton said Krystal Dixon brought eight children to the pool last Tuesday, but one child was ordered to leave, because he didn’t have proper swim trunks.

Hilton said Dixon went to get swim trunks but was told when she returned that the teen wouldn’t be allowed back in.

At that point, Hilton said, Dixon went to get the other kids from the pool, passing an officer who told her she had to leave.

Dixon told the officer that she had to get the rest of the kids and passed him. She retrieved the kids and was leaving when the officer grabbed her arm and said he had told her to leave, Hilton said.

When that happened, Dixon’s kids demanded that the officer let their mother go. But Hilton said the video doesn’t show them assaulting any officer.

In the moments that followed, Hilton said, an unidentified man assaulted a 15-year-old, while an officer injured a 12-year-old’s jaw and her ribs. (the story continues with additional video)
