According to police reports submitted to case prosecutors, Morales punched female officer Sonya Fry in the chest without provocation after calling her a "bitch." Reports also declared that Morales kicked another police officer in the leg.

The Seattle Police Department's account of the incident was called into question after prosecutors came upon a May 2 YouTube video that finds Fry grabbing Morales by the hair and pulling her to the ground without any physical provocation.
