The pair arrested five 10-to-14-year olds in Flatbush in a stolen car.
Witness footage shows the officers using force, including one several times hitting a youth lying face-down.
The second officer appeared to kick a restrained a 10-year old.
One officer wasn't charged; the other pleaded guilty to common assault and was discharged without conviction.
Regional Commander Superintendent, Shanan Gray, says an employment investigation was carried out - and they accept the findings.
