I'm in the US, so I don't have first hand knowledge, but the song “Black Boys on Mopeds” by Sinéad O’Connor is explicit enough evidence to tell me it does.
Not sure a song lyric counts as evidence.
This is probably better evidence than a 35 year old song lyric.
Yes we have our issues, as does any country, but the US is way out there in terms of police brutality.
