QuoteUS police officers were seen joking as they watched footage of a 73-year-old dementia sufferer whose shoulder was said to have been dislocated during her arrest.
Video released by Karen Garner's lawyer, shows officers watching the bodycam images of her arrest, and one of them asking "ready for the pop?" as her shoulder is pulled.
Ms Garner was detained on 26 June last year after she walked out of a Walmart in Colorado without paying for $14 (£10) worth of items.
Her lawyer says her elbow was fractured and shoulder dislocated during her arrest.
Back at the police station, officer Austin Hopp had showed fellow officers Ms Garner's arrest - and as they watch, they fist-bump one another.

"Ready for the pop? Hear the pop?" one of the male officers says at one point, referring to Ms Garner's shoulder.
A female officer, who helped during the arrest then says: "I hate this."
During her arrest, Ms Garner - who suffers from dementia and sensory aphasia, which impairs her ability to verbally communicate and understand - was held against the bonnet of a patrol car in Loveland, about 50 miles north of Denver, with her handcuffed left arm bent up behind her head.
