The officers in the video appear to be using a wrist lock, which is an alternative to more controversial tools, such as electroshock weapons and tear gas https://www.policemag.com/patrol/article/15346750/gaining-compliance-with-targeted-pressure https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grappling_hold#Pain_compliance
