After Watching These Cops Bully an Innocent Combat Vet, You’ll Know Why People are Upset with Cops
The two men said they were simply sitting on a curb outside of a cellphone store after business hours, waiting for a ride, when approached by the officer.
Six Apopka police officers are under investigation after video was posted online showing cops roughing up and berating two men who were simply waiting for a ride to work.
A video of the incident shows extremely aggressive and unnecessary actions by the officers involved, which are indicative of the increased calls for police oversight and accountability by the American public.
The two men said they were simply sitting on a curb outside of a cellphone store after business hours, waiting for a ride, when approached by the overly aggressive officer. Now one of the men has spoken out, claiming that he feels he was racially profiled.
“If you’re African-American, you’re going to be profiled,” Niblak said.
Initially, one of the men can be heard politely explaining to the officer that he is waiting for a ride, stating,
“I understand that ma’ am. I’m just sitting here waiting for my boss. I just wanna go to work. That’s it.”
