The world keeps getting more ridiculous by the minute! But, this video really takes the cake. An unidentified man in St. Paul Minnesota was questioned, tasered, and arrested by two unidentified officers for sitting in a public area and not providing his name. We’d like to also note that he wasn’t armed.
Police issued a statement saying that they were called by a private security company due to a man repeatedly entering a bank area that was for ’employees only’. The man, identified as Lollie, wouldn’t leave or cooperate with officers. Officers then called for back up assistance, because they felt that the man would fight or run. At that point, police took steps to take him into custody.
In the video, you can hear the man yell, “I haven’t done anything wrong! Can somebody help me?! That’s my kids, right there! My kids are right there!” The officer reacts by screaming, “Put your hands behind your back!”
This video is really upsetting.

For what? For not stopping when he was asked to stop. Police have a legal power to detain anyone for questioning whether they are going to make an arrest or not. They had probable cause to stop this idiot and question him. HE led the cops to where his kids were. Had he stopped and answered a few questions none of this would have happened and his kids wouldn’t have witnessed any of this. The fact that he pulls the overly used race card right away tells us where his mindset is. I don’t care if you’re black white blue brown or purple. Law enforcement tell you to stop. You stop. Period.
