Derrick House was returning home from a trip to Costco, headed to make dinner with his family. An unmarked car comes speeding up from behind him, suddenly blocking him in. Cops jump out and start pointing their pistols at him, threatening to shoot him in the face. What did he do wrong? Apparently he was just a black male driving a Volkswagen. Even though it was the wrong make, color (and license plate number) the cops figured it was close enough.
A bunch of terrified cops with their fingers on their triggers. What could possibly go wrong????
Wrong number of passengers, wrong color car, wrong model of car, wrong license plate.
The only part of "you match the description" was the first two letters on the license plate.
Great to know that cops are too lazy to confirm any details before threatening to murder civilians
A stupid gun crazed happy-trigger young punk Rambo murdered Daniel Shaver under similar circumstances as here. Killer was a psycho, a wacko, sicko loser who joined the national guard where he received military training. His urge to kill was satisfied by joining the police force.
How dumb does the cops have to be to not know the difference between a black car and a light gray car. Those fools were inching to shoot that guy by what they were saying to him at gun point.
I would want an incident report of everyone involved
How come the ability to READ is no longer a requirement to be a Police Officer?
I always thought reading was the most important lesson we were ever taught and Law enforcement should have higher standards than hire people who are evidently Illiterate .
Can't read house numbers, license plate numbers, make and model of vehicles and even color of said vehicles
What happened to the standard of becoming a Police Officer ?
One use to have to pass tests, written and physical ones , being a certain height and weight, and know the law reasonably and be able to communicate and express compassion and care .
It is time to re-examine the Police model and make appropriate changes and the ability to read Must be a priority
Great commentary… The officer that drove in front of the volkswagen… is…on the powder.
Soon as police officers hear the word black you already know what kind of mold they go into
Another open and shut case of qualified immunity.
taking this officer safety way too much, have a little courage to do your job
All police should assist the local flora to ascend toward the sun
I watched this video and guns pointed over the wrong car once again and then the one says no it’s the right one ??!!
Things are getting out of hand big time
At least, they didn’t make up multiple BS charges!!!!
Earning the hate. Officer safety has gone too far as a reason for horrible behavior.
So much aggression. They are so scared of people in every situation.
It'd be funny if they weren't murdering people.
Clown show from start to finish but yet again no accountability nor individual responsibility from any of these lying cops. Did you hear Harvey have the cheek to start saying, "Well, ya know, you need to see it from our POV" – actually that is a typical retort of a cop to then gaslight & blame the innocent victim because these clown cops not only are all number dyslexic they are all colour blind too, but they don't give a f-ck as long as they are safe, get to point guns at innocent folk & then lecture them about how grateful they need to be for all cops.
"Here's the deal…"
That phrase should be banned from the language.
Cops have totally lost their minds. This is ridiculous.
This makes me wanna puke damn I hate tyrants even if this is who they are looking for what gives them the right to treat anyone like this its not right
Let me get this straight. They pull over a wrong guy who has slowed down for an accident he says ahead of him. Did any of these officers go to the accident ? Hope they were not hurt there as does not seem to be a car for that accident. Well they did get the make of car correct and they all look alike.
Th worse thing was he gave those cops his name. Them trying to explain AFTER they were ready to unalive the guy was priceless. They failed to get the right info, failed to notify why the guy was being pulled over, did an illegal search and seizure, handcuffed and put him in their parole car is wrongful detainment….It's like they were eager to do what they see on these TV cop shows. And the brotha…white cops aren't the worst…it's the black police officers that are the worst.
A year later and this guy got no justice!!! I'm not surprised by this. In our world the slogan 'no justice no peace' is what we have to deal with in our everyday lives…This even happened on my fraternal twin sister and I's birthday!!!!
I hope this guy get what he rightfully deserve. I would say those cops should be fired but I don't have to guess that they're still lawfully employed.
So, yeah, we've read and seen some honest mistakes. But there's a fine line where it becomes gross incompetence as well. Stopping a silver car when you're looking for a black one, and doing it on two letters is less a mistake and more negligence.
