I’ve been digging through the 8 TB of footage Pete and I have assembled and came across this incident, shot last August, while doing Uncle Sam Outreach in Times Square. Watch the video below to see what happens next.

Even though this man was being detained for Jaywalking, something that shouldn’t even be a ‘crime’, the police still didn’t want us to film them – Why? They asked Marv over and over to tell us not to film but he wouldn’t. I’m glad we were able to stop and film, especially since most of Marv’s friends had bailed on him, and that the police didn’t escalate the situation. Our presence also helped speed up the process probably because the police didn’t want to end up on YouTube. Fail.

If you have a video you’d like to share with CopBlock.org contact us.
