In Bowling Green, Kentucky, a man and his girlfriend were trying to have a yard sale when police officers from the Warren County Sheriff’s Office and the Bowling Green Police Department appeared and accused them of shoplifting, due to there being multiple duplicate items for sale on the tables in the front yard. Despite not having a warrant, the officers refused to leave, detaining a man and attempting to interrogate him on the home’s front porch for over 45 minutes.

So what happens when these pigs break the law ?
This is why people should have a fence around their front yard with a locked door so only people who are invited can get through the door.
File a formal complaint and contact an attorney.
After.
I've asked you to leave one time.That's the only warning you get after that the guns come out.
I would like to hear what brought them to the property to begin with.
We do not answer to Jewish s k.k.k. question
So cops won't respond to people actually in the store shoplifting (depending on state) but they harass a yardsale. Hey cops you know flea markets sell tools still in box you gonna harass them.
This is private property. The police are not entitiled to investigate or search this area without a warrant. You are in the curtilage which is the same as being inside this home, which you do not have the right to do without a warrant. Do you have a warrant? I do not consent to this illegal search. Am I free to go? Am I being detained? We have to remember to ask as many of these questions as we can remember. This is so bold and arrogant on the part of the cops.
Clearly illegal search. Would it be illegal to remove the police with force?
The blind leading the blind
These cops put some folks in a rage. Then they wonder why.
The Gustapo. Does he come on the property and take pictures of lemonade stands too? Is he giving out tickets? Is he secretly an angry person that hates for other people to have any happiness and freedom in life? I am glad I am not his wife. He would probably take pictures of my tampon boxes.
You think they Care 😂😢 Qualified Immunity.
Cops are inventing crimes now
That's the problem with most properties in the u.s right there. There are no real fences, or fences at all.
Noone should be able to set foot on your property without being invited to 🤦♂️
My wife does the same thing I would love to have an officer come mess with me like this I’d have a field day with them
Bunch of re re cops 😂😂😂
Sad how so many cops have become the worst tradh in our society , perhaps they need to be held accountable?
IT'S A F*CKING YARD SALE!!! WTF IS WRONG WITH THESE PUNKS. The cops look more and more like a bunch of communist gang who break the law… all the time. THIS IS WHY PPL DON'T LIKE COPS.
I coupon and resell. This is how I support my family especially with my health issues. Sometimes I go out to the street and sell. I didn’t even though this could be a thing. Wow 😮
Check the security cameras at the store that I allegedly stole from. Case closed.
Nothing better to do than harass someone having a garage sale. Ridiculous.
Ok you got multiple items for sale at a yard sale? Hang on let me get this stright, okay, everybody FREEZE.
No ignorance on the part of that cop. He knew EXACTLY what he was doing, and doesn’t care that he was violating your civil rights.
Tyrant cop
Maga America – that’s the mango faced puppets work and his puppeteers.. rule of law. Hmmmm
What is the point of the law to protecting us, if police don’t follow them, and the courts, let them get away with it most of the time?!
The girlfriend was also involved with helping the homeless buy tents, there's no homeless shelters in town, 4 deputies at one point. Ridiculous!!!!
