Jonathan Josey: Cop who hit woman in the face during city parade found NOT GUILTY of assault
Caught on camera: Lt Jonathan Josey circled on the left, appears to deliver a blow to Aida Guzman during the Puerto Rican day parade

A police officer accused of punching a woman to the ground at a Philadelphia street party has been acquitted of assault.

Highway Patrol Lt Jonathan D. Josey II, 40, was suspended by the police after footage of the incident at a festival associated with the city's Puerto Rican Day parade was posted online.

A judge has ruled that Lt Josey was not guilty of assault after the video allegedly showed him striking Aida Guzman, 39, in the face during the confrontation last year.
