Did police go too far by shoving Fox 2 reporter M.L. Elrick?

Fox 2 News Headlines

Two Detroit cops shoved Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter M.L. Elrick on Tuesday while he tried to interview Council President Pro Tem George Cushingberry at the start of a public council meeting.

Video shows the Fox 2 reporter getting prepared to ask Cushingberry a question at the entrance of the meeting when two officers forcefully pushed Elrick back.

It was an odd reaction by security because reporters commonly approach council members before meetings.

Fox 2 has launched a complaint with Police Chief James Craig.

In the video, Elrick refers to Motor City Muckraker and the time I ended up in the emergency room after being assaulted by council security about three years ago.
