Police released a video Monday afternoon, just a handful of hours after the reported burglary in the 4800 block of Robertson Street, near Irvington Boulevard.
In the video, a Black man appears to be interacting with a woman before he moves beside her and suddenly wraps his arms around her neck in a chokehold.

The woman was taken to the hospital, where she remains, as of Tuesday.
