Authorities have released video of Carlos Gimenez Jr., son of U.S. Rep. Carlos Gimenez, surrounding the slapping incident of Miami Commissioner Alex Diaz de la Portilla while dining at a high-end Coral Gables steakhouse.

There are three different CCTV (closed-circuit television) videos of the Ponce De Leon/Miracle Mile cameras released by the Coral Gables Police Department on Friday.

There are two angles of the incident posted below. It’s tough to see the actual slap but the aftermath shows a struggle between Gimenez and a Sergeant of Arms who is with Miami Police and who is part of the Commissioner’s protective detail.
