The cop was calm and professional too, until the millionaire ignored him and drove over his foot. Yes, with hindsight the cop probably overreacted, but since none of use were there we don't know exactly what was said between them. In the end the millionaire should not have driven off from an officer of law and order plus hurting him at the same time. No jury will approve with that.
I read the word millionaire twice in your post. Have you seen his bank account? 
You should read the comments regarding this incident on other sites: Half of the people blame the cop for brutality and the other half blames the rich kid and wants him to get "his lesson".
We don't know what happened exactly but I watched the video over and over again and I really don't see why a policeman should react in the excessive way the one in the video did. I also cannot see that he (the millionaire 
) actually injured the police officer, the cop looks quite fine to me when he hits the window, slams the door open and against that taxi and pulling the guy out of the car. You can't do that if someone hurt your foot.
There was a lot of rage involved and let me guess...the cop has a wife and kid(s) and probably a lot of debt. Well, what a good chance to show him (the millionaire ) who the boss is.
A good lawyer could eat that cop for breakfast but I guess that the NYPD and the millionaire will try to keep this under a lid sooner or later. Just wait and see.
