Although posted this week, Sheriff Urbino “Benny” Martinez estimates the incident took place in 2016.

Some news sources have reported that the department posted the video in order to recruit for more officers, but Martinez says those assumptions are “insulting,” KSAT reports.

The video has been viewed more than nine million times on Facebook since last Friday.
