(26,546 posts)University of California at Berkeley students are petitioning to have an officer removed from his post after he allegedly removed a wallet full of money from a hot dog vendor because he was operating without a license.
University of California at Berkeley police officer Sean Aranas was caught on camera citing the hot dog vendor for selling food without a permit, at which point the officer reputedly confiscated his profits.
The incident was caught on camera by UC Berkeley alum Martin Flores, who began filming because he felt the officer unfairly treated the hot dog vendor, known as Juan.

(54,770 posts)I think this policeman is in trouble, and rightly so. He can join Mark Furman, Darren Wilson, Timothy Loehmann, etc., in Idaho or seomthing (sorry Idaho).
