A Seattle teen shown on video shoving a police officer who then punched her in the face has apologized to the officer in a private meeting.
Seattle police say Officer Ian Walsh accepted the apology Friday.
Separately, the King County prosecutor charged the 17-year-old girl as a juvenile with third-degree assault, which is punishable by a maximum 30 days in detention.
