team manager Ibrahim Hassan<\/a>, a longtime national team player and brother of Egyptian coach Hossam Hassan, in a verbal and physical confrontation with the officer, whose name hasn\u2019t been released.<\/p>\nThe video shows the officer trying to block Hassan from approaching two other people. The officer can be seen shouting \u201cback off\u201d and shoving someone, but bystanders block the view of who he shoved. A second man in a T-shirt marked “Egypt” is seen a few seconds later confronting the Dallas officer. The altercation lasted a few more seconds before other people and at least one other Dallas police officer intervened.<\/p>\n
The Dallas Police Department said that the incident happened at 10:50 p.m. Thursday at the Westin Hotel and that its officers \u201cresponded to the Westin at the request of hotel security regarding an individual without event credentials attempting to gain access.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe situation was resolved on scene, and DPD met with representatives of the team to address their concerns. The matter has since been resolved,\u201d the department said in an emailed statement.<\/p>\n
The department didn\u2019t respond to follow-up questions via email or voice message, and the Egyptian Embassy and Egyptian Football Association didn\u2019t immediately respond to requests for comment.<\/p>\n
