Do any of you guys have any noteworthy encounters with the police, Good or Bad? please share
This will be long ass shit, FYI
I 'll start: around September 2013, I was working as facilities engineer, which is a dirty job. I pretty much carried around an entire toolkit with me most days, i.e a hammer, screwdriver, boxcutter, drywall patch and etc. As I 'm heading home for the day, listening to music, two men grabbed me from behind and tried to drag me down to the curb. I did what anyone would do if two strange men grabbed you from behind, I fought back...which made it worse, but my mama didn 't raise no punk. Very soon after the brawl started, a third man approached and shouted 'NYPD '. I stopped fighting back, I thought the third guy was there to help me and I started shouting about how those two guys just jumped …show more content…
I was in shock, total and complete shock. 30 minutes ago, my biggest concern was whether I need to buy milk for the Oreos i had at home, and now I 'm being arrested and charged with three felonies. But the universe was looking out for me. As they are waiting for the paddy wagon, their supervisor pulls up and orders them to let me go. All three officers immediately take offense with her order, and they start listing all the charges they are going to press and how I pretty much deserve to go to jail that night. But the female officer doesn 't lose her cool, #latinagirlmagic, she calmly stated that: 1) I didn 't match the description of the perp they were looking for. The perp was a black male, 5 ' 5" to 5 ' 10" tall, between the ages of 13 to 17, with cornrows. I was 25, 6 ' 2" with a crew cut. 2) None of the items on my person are illegal and there 's no connection or proof they have been used in a crime and 3) None of the officers, had their badges out and they failed to identify themselves before tackling me to the ground. They begrudgingly let me
