Newly released dashboard camera video shows a suspect attack several police officers in Greenfield, Wisconsin.

Officers responded to a domestic call at the Hideaway Motel at 5105 South 27th Street on May 29 and were confronted by the suspect, according to WTMJ-TV. The suspect, 21-year-old Bryon Vaughns, repeatedly told the officers to shoot him.

"I do not need to do this," one of the responding officers told the man. "You need to get down on the ground."

Vaughns disobeys the officers' orders before one of the officers reaches for his Taser.

"I'm a gangster," Vahughns tells them. "Don't play with me folks."

The officer fires the Taser, hitting Vaughns, but he can be seen breaking away and getting into a struggle with the officers.

Sgt. Matthew Borchardt told the news station that one of the officers hit a pole during the struggle and was rendered unconscious.

The officer suffered a concussion and required stitches while another officer who was hit was also transported to a local hospital.

Vaughns is being charged with two felonies.
