A Wisconsin police officer apparently was knocked out by a brick as an angry mob cheered and shouted “F–k the police” during riots in Kenosha, according to a viral video.

The footage shows a handful of cops trying to help a Kenosha police vehicle leaving the area as it is mobbed by dozens of people Sunday night during riots sparked by the police-custody shooting of Jacob Blake.

As one officer walks away from where a Molotov cocktail appears to have been thrown, he suddenly collapses forward onto his face, as seen in the video viewed more than 1.8 times in the first 12 hours.

“He just got bricked! He just got bricked!” someone close to the cameraman screams, as others in the mob cheer, clap and shout, “F–k the police!”

Shouts of “Officer down!” are heard on the police scanner, the Kenosha News said, as his colleagues rush over and try to drag him to safety.

It was not clear if the knocked-out officer was from Kenosha police or another law enforcement agency brought in to help with Sunday’s riots. It was also not immediately clear how seriously he was injured.

The violence erupted after agitators and rioters first gathered at the scene where Blake, 29, was shot several times by a police officer as he fought off 3 other officers and tried to dive and reach back into his car after being detained.
