Two Chicago Police officers received reprimands following an internal investigation into a trophy photo taken with a University of Pittsburgh student arrested during the G-20 in September.
Reprimands were issued to a department chief as well as a commander involved in the incident, said Roderick Drew, a spokesman for the force.
Police declined to release their names.
The internal investigation was launched after videotape appeared on the Internet showing officers with a handcuffed suspect who was made to kneel as the group of helmeted police posed behind him for a photograph.
The suspect, Kyle Kramer, had been charged with failure to disperse. His attorney, Cris Hoel, said Mr. Kramer had been scooped off the street by Chicago officers detailed to G-20 security, while he was walking home from dinner.
