A video released on Friday morning shows how an ertzaina attacks a person. With a hard hit without realizing someone was recording, throw the people to the ground, feel for once! while screaming in Spanish (Shut up now, pussy!)

In a few seconds, a dozen local police and ertzaines have left in cars, leaving the person lying on the ground.

ARGIA contacts the Ertzaintza office in Irun to inform him that they will not make any statement because they are analyzing the video. "We don't know when the video is or what's happened, so we're not going to make any statement until things get clear," they say.

The Irun Municipal Police have also been contacted and no statements have been made.
