During one of many protests for abortion rights over the weekend, actress Jodie Sweetin was seen on video being shoved to the ground by Los Angeles police officers. Sweetin, best known for her role as Stephanie Tanner on "Full House," was leading a group of protesters away from the freeway when the incident occurred, a journalist who captured the moment said on Twitter.
In the video, Sweetin is seen standing on an embankment on the freeway shouting something through her megaphone towards the protesters when LAPD officers grab her and shove her several feet onto the freeway. She promptly stood back up.
The crowd immediately starts shouting at the officers, with one person yelling, "what the f*** is wrong with you guys?" The protesters then began chanting, "No justice, no peace," led by Sweetin. It is not immediately clear what may have happened prior to the incident.
