LONDON — A video clip showing a British police officer kicking a man in the head as he lies face down at an airport has sparked protests and accusations of police brutality and racism.

       Video footage of the Tuesday incident at Manchester Airport shows a White male officer pointing a Taser at a man lying on the floor. The officer kicks the man, who appears to be of South Asian heritage, in the face and stomps on his head, before kneeling on him.
