Woman arrested after swearing aloud on mobile phone

A pregnant woman was handcuffed by police and forced onto her stomach during an arrest that began with her talking too loudly on her mobile phone, according to BreakingNews Ireland.

"Deputy Transit Police Chief Timothy Gronau said Officer George Saoutis followed police procedure after Aaron refused to stop cursing loudly during a mobile phone conversation and became abusive and uncooperative.

Aaron said the officer approached her as she walked to catch a bus, telling her to keep her voice down. She twice tried to break away, but he caught her arm, then placed her face down, handcuffed her, and charged her with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest."
