A memo from the state attorney says Will McNeil's dash-top video that was posted on social media five months after the encounter was "incomplete in its scope" and "does not tell the whole story."

Will McNeil Jr. said he is still recovering from injuries suffered when he was punched by deputies, who are seen on video forcibly removing him from his car in February.
