VIDEO: Chicago police accused of false arrest in Lakeview
After an alleged male offender was arrested in Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood, a woman accused two Chicago police officers of making a false arrest. She also accused the officers of behaving like the Los Angeles Police Department.
A YouTube video entitled, "Chicago Police Like LAPD", was posted online November 16, 2011. The video documents a woman questioning two police officers after a male subject was arrested near the intersection of Belmont and Sheffield.
When the woman asked the officers why the man was being taken into custody, the officers said the male subject was arrested for blocking the sidewalk and refusing to leave the area.
"What did he do? He didn't do nothing. I got it all on tape," said the woman, from behind the camera.
But despite the woman's claim that the man is innocent, the YouTube video doesn't show what happened before the subject was hauled off to jail.

"din do nuffinz"
ReplyDeleteyea, I've heard that before...
Way to go CPD!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure he was doing nothing wrong other than being a "public nuisance".
Maybe there are no laws in Chicago to thwart standing on the sidewalk and yelling about "MF White people", or flailing around with a bottle in your hand, or loitering for hours, BUT you CAN arrest them for being a PUBLIC NUISANCE - they do it in Detroit all the time.
This is #1. When I hear of at least 5 more of these arrests in the general area, I'll start spending $$ at the local businesses again other than at the grocery store or getting my hair cut.
If you're black you better stay strapped
ReplyDeleteYa digg stay strapped
ReplyDeleteYa'll are silly with your knives and bottles here. If you have a gun at least learn to hit something other than a mailbox, an ankle or your spawn. Your clothes are hilarious too! (20 years behind Detroit and New York). Cornrolls. OMG! And the cars! The "cars" (with those stick-on fake Buick portholes - usually crooked too). ROTFLMAO! Where's the inhaler? I'm laughing so hard. Those crooked wigs with Asian hair texture on the gigettes.
ReplyDeleteGD, I'm happy to know I did experience some classy Black people in my lifetime. They ain't to be found in Shitcago though. Whatcha got? R. Pee Kelley? Jennifer (black-on-black crime poster child) Hudson? Oprah and her lesbo on the side aka Gayle? Where's Steadman? With Tiny Dancer?

he wud nah he wud nah, he din do nuffin. Fucking pavement apes are the scourge of the earth....no really.
ReplyDeleteThe humane thing to do with all of these "people" would be to pay to have their "familes" (Core Groups) relocated to their native habitat in Africa. There is no racism in africa (because there are no whites) and they can go back to doing what they do best: Nothing but eat, sleep and shit. No, really...
I don't care if the CPD has to crack a million heads to get this city back to a level of safety where we can ride a train and walk down a sidewalk without being robbed, killed, or raped. Keep up the good work CPD!! Stay safe fighting these scum bags.
ReplyDeleteWay to go CPD! Clean up that area! Wonder if the video is being taken by one of the many IPhones they steal? I love the way they ALWAYS start the video AFTER the fact.
ReplyDeletecrack heads. that's the problem....AND the solution! (thanks for the inspiration, anonymous @ 8:41am)
ReplyDeleteFEEL SORRY FOR THE HOMELESS, GIVE THEM MONEY SO THEY CAN GET HIGH,THE MONEY YOU GIVE THEM GOES TO THE GANGS NOT JEWEL OR DOMINICKS.
ReplyDeleteChick needs somethin better to do. At least get the WHOLE INCIDENT on video or dont post it at all....
ReplyDeleteThis article tells us nothing.
The video says EVERYTHING about Shitcago. No nignorance on these streets, please. They're being checked. Finally!
ReplyDeleteThanks CNR. You've got some competition now though. The Tribune is posting reality now too! They're usually a day late and a $ short but if CNR is the FIRST......I'll remain a fan.
Our 150+ attempt to civilize black apes is a massive failure, we need to cut welfare immediately and instead devote our money to shipping all of them back to Africa.
ReplyDeleteEverytime I leave the apartment wild apes are terrorizing pedestrians.
First of all Tony is one of the nicest cops in the area. There are people that stand on the sidewalk and block foot traffic over there all the time and bother anyone around them there. My husband tried to walk around 2 of those people and got pushed into the wall and they started screaming at him and threatening to kill him. There were some people waiting for a bus a few feet away so the offenders left him on the ground and toke off
ReplyDeleteRAID WASP SPRAY WORK BETTER THAN MACE AND SHOOTS FARTHER AND IN HIGHER QUANTITIES. BUY SOME NOW!
