15:48Now PlayingNYPD Officer Daniel Pantaleo, who was accused of using a chokehold in the viral video death of Eric Garner in 2014, was fired by NYPD Commissioner James O'Neil.
O'Neill made his announcement Monday after five years of investigations and protests.
"What I want residents of New York City to understand is that there is accountability in the New York City Police Department," said O'Neill, speaking from police headquarters in lower Manhattan.
A state grand jury declined to indict Pantaleo in 2014. Federal authorities, however, kept a civil rights investigation open for five years before announcing last month they would not bring charges.
It was up to O'Neill to seal Pantaelo's fate after an NYPD administrative judge recommended firing the officer earlier this month.
Pantaleo's lawyer had insisted the officer used a reasonable amount of force and did not mean to hurt Garner.
