A San Bernardino County sheriff’s deputy is on administrative leave after video surfaced of a use-of-force arrest on an armed robbery suspect in Hesperia earlier this week.

Events leading to the arrest began on Sunday when deputies were called to an armed robbery in the 16000 block of Main Street, the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department stated in a news release Wednesday.

Investigators later identified 36-year-old Adelanto resident Christian Cardenas Alonso as a suspect in the case.

On Tuesday, deputies located Alonso near the intersection of Main Street and E Avenue.

“The investigators initiated a traffic stop and contacted Alonso who refused to exit his vehicle. Alonso resisted arrest and a use of force occurred,” the Sheriff’s Department stated.

Cellphone video of the arrest recorded by @jesseloc and shared with KTLA via Instagram showed three members of law enforcement holding Alonso down during a struggle as a fourth landed several knees to his head and multiple punches to his face.

“I have been made aware of the use of force that occurred during the arrest of a suspected armed robbery suspect. The use of force is currently under investigation, which includes the review of all body-worn cameras,” Sheriff Shannon Dicus said. “The deputy has been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation.”
