A Kenosha Police Department off-duty officer who was seen on video putting his knee on the neck of a 12-year-old to break up a fight has resigned from his role at the Kenosha Unified School District.
The officer resigned "effective Tuesday, March 16. As it appears that this incident may lead to litigation, the district will provide no further details at this time," Kenosha Unified School District spokeswoman Tanya Ruder told CNN.
The school district said the officer was working as a security guard at the time of the incident.

President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that he would use the power of the Justice Department to go after two officials who were highly critical of him during his first term in office, including one whose anonymously written New York Times op-ed claiming he was part of the “resistance” to Trump’s presidency captivated the nation for years.
