According to footage released by the Tarrant Police Department, on Monday night, Tommy was standing in the City Hall parking lot near a pick-up truck speaking with Tarrant Police Chief Wendell Major after a tense meeting inside. During the meeting, Bryant reportedly urged Mayor Newton to step down as they argued over several topics. In the just-released security camera video, Wayman can be seen approaching Tommy. They engage in a brief discussion before the councilman punches Wayman so hard, he falls to his knees before getting back up and jumping around. Holy s**t!
Check out the violent moment if you wish (below).

There was no audio in the footage, so it’s unclear what they were discussing at the time, but it likely had to do with their meeting just moments earlier. Not only does the video prove what happened, but several witnesses saw the shocking moment go down. The chief immediately put Tommy’s hands behind his back to arrest him on the scene. Speaking to ABC 30/40 News, Wendell recalled:
Following the incident, Wayman took to Instagram to explain what happened, writing:
So horrific… Bryant’s already been accused of racism in the past, such as last year when he allegedly referred to Councilwoman Veronica Freeman as a “house n*****” during another public meeting. WTF.
