The agent, Adam Saracco, was charged with misdemeanor after the altercation at a gas station near Chicago last year during the Trump administration’s crackdown there.

The former Bibb County deputies were arrested this week amid a growing national debate over Flock cameras, which can be found on roads in every state but Alaska.

The agent accused the woman of trying to run him over with her vehicle, a claim she denied. It was the latest tense encounter between a federal agent and a driver.

The Department of Homeland Security described the gloves as a “de-escalation device,” but critics said they could encourage agents to use more force.

Police thought they had caught a car thief in San Francisco. Instead, they had mistyped his license plate number, a watchdog agency said, then arrested him with excessive force.
