The Camden County Prosecutor's Office is releasing the body cam video from a pepper spray incident last week in Woodlynne, and a police officer involved has been charged.
The camera, worn by Officer Ryan Dubiel, 31, of Wenonah, begins as officers from the Woodlynne Police Department were dispatched to the 200 block of Parker Avenue.
Dubiel used the spray against several individuals he encountered while investigating a complaint, officials say.
Under the current use of force protocols, an officer is allowed to use force only when someone refuses to comply, or makes a threat.

Dubiel was charged with two counts of simple assault following an investigation by the Camden County Prosecutor's Office.
