Distressing footage shows police officers using a stun gun to subdue a teenager in an apartment block after she 'shoved a police officer'.
Police have confirmed they are aware of the video and are investigating the incident after it was broadcast by US media.
In the clip, which has been captured by a mobile phone, 17-year-old Dailene Rosario is seen screaming in agony as the stun gun is deployed.
The wires from the device can clearly be seen.
It is claimed that Ms Rosario is 14 weeks pregnant .

She screamed: "Get off me, get off me," as officers attempt to hold her down before using the stun gun, according to WPIX News in New York .
The incident occurred around 10pm on Friday, February 10, when officers were responding to an unrelated call in the Bronx apartment building.
When they arrived, they heard a loud fight between Ms Rosario's ex-boyfriend and another man, a scuffle that is believed to have been started over a video game.
According to reports, Ms Rosario 'interfered' with officers - some reports claim she 'shoved' one policeman into a wall - and when they tried to handcuff her, she refused and sat down on her hands.
She then shouted at officers: "Yo, why are you cuffing me? I didn't do anything."

Ms Rosario continued to struggle with the police until they finally used the stun gun, causing her to fall to the floor and scream in agony.
One girl watching the incident unfold repeatedly shouts at the officers: "She's pregnant, she's pregnant."
Ms Rosario is charged with resisting arrest, second degree harassment and disorderly conduct.
And NYPD spokesman told WPIX News: "We are aware of the incident. It is under investigation."
