A police officer in Jonesboro, Georgia, pointed a gun at five Black teenagers in a video that trended Monday.

A group of neighbors gathered to keep the boys calm and try to get the officer to put down his gun.

The officer pointed the gun at boys while responding to a 911 call about a group of teenagers trying to steal from a shop, fighting in a parking lot, and brandishing a gun.

Because the 911 caller said the teens had a gun, the police officer "approached them with his duty weapon drawn and pointed at the juveniles," Clayton County police told CNN.

The boys later told the police officer that they had were previously holding a BB gun that they threw in the bushes.
