CINCINNATI — A Cincinnati police captain accused of strangling a woman while off-duty has been acquitted.

Court records show Brian Norris was acquitted Friday after he was charged with assault and disorderly conduct for an October 2024 incident where witnesses said they saw him strangling a woman in Washington Park.

Video shared with WCPO 9 shows people walking toward Norris, who can be seen on top of a woman who is crying on the ground. The woman can be heard yelling at Norris, "Get off of me."

When the witness tells Norris to get off of her, he responds with, "She knows what she did."

Eventually, he gets up and walks away from the woman, who continues to cry on the ground.
