Exactly 💯

Coward of a manager. COWARD

He ain’t shit either and don’t stand for the black people either

I'd sue the manager too for incompetence...

That manager wants the Police to respond for future incidents in a timely manner. If he makes noise it could take the police hours to respond.

They're bootlickers or they're racist it's as simple as that!

Now Sir, you better understand the depth of hate of the the ppl at question. Take it and free yourself

This happens to all races not just blacks. A white person was accused of mass shooting and turned it the shooter was black.

Lets make this a race issue. Blame the person who gave the description.

@matthew frank mikovich Facts

I think it takes others to recognize and act for others when they are being discriminated against.

Thank you, brother.

Update?

Ha ha

I thought it's only shoplifting if you leave the store

@@ladybug6117 I agree to an extent. The store was actively on the phone with police reporting the location of the real suspect. The manager stood there and didn't correct the officers.

Whoever called the police also needs to be fired. If they miss something like a bright Orange hat then they’re clearly not fit for the job.

Straight up! I wouldn't wanna come back in there for anything!

The police was just as wrong. Once they enter the store they should go to the Lost Prevetion office before making contact with the shoplifters. They run the streets and public, when they step in the store, they have to abide by store companies policing. The store is responsible liable for what happens to the shoplifters. The store is the one who will be sued. Once the police speaks with Lost Prevention or a member of management they can take over the case. The store tells police officers if they want to press charges or if they want to banned the shoplifters. Banding means the shoplifters are not to go on any property of the store even if they're out of the states. We used API, a computer base report that's Shared company wide. Which is one of the first things you look at to see if they have previous been caught shopping lifting.

I don’t, I understand what I’m the hell these people are worth to society… these 2 mean deserve to be jailed and stripped of their badges and laughed at publicly, racist pigs

@@earvetta Do you really believe the store is responsible for the action of rouge police officer??? You really believe that the cops are under the "store law" and must follow their policies?

@@sittingindetroit9204 I as a Asset Protection Coordinator worked for 18 years whenever law enforcement was called to any of my stores whether it was disturbing operation oi f business or shoplifters small children being left on the stor if someone is purchasing the ingredients to make crack ect. The decision has always been left up the what the store polices are. Give you a couple of examples. If a homeless person came only stole some ready cooked food, would you have them arrested. A child put a pack of gum in thdir pocket. A customer come in the automotive business entirely open a bottle coil pour some of it on the floor lay down in it, wants to file a accident claim you get a call you look at the video see what that customer did. You have called the none emergency phone number to have a police officer to come to the store tell the operator what location for the officers to come so they won't go to the AP office. You Go out to speak with the customer with a accident floder get their information. Ask if they're alright listening to them tell you what happened ask them if they want to file a accident report. You have a associate to to stay and watch the customer you don't want to leave a customer who just had a slip and fall in the store to be left alone that may pass out. Once the officers come to your location you tell them what you got got going on that you've viewed the video what the customer did.. The customer doesn't know that you're speaking to police officers. They ask what you like to do. You already have your banned paperwork done. Go back to the location where the customer is the officers With the police telling the customer exactly what you viewed on video ask them if they still want to file a accident report. You do inform them that you're Bannding them from the stores. Reading the paper work to them. Ask their I'd have them to sign it. The police are going to ask if you want to have each of these of the people in these examples arrest. You make a decision based on company policy. Yes each one could be arrested. If you look at cost of each of these examples would it be cost affected for you to have to go to court for their hearings?. In order Banned to be put on a customer it has to be on record at the police you station called the police give a copy of the APIS report. Those are just few of the the things when a officer arrive at any of my stores. They will ask you want you would like to do. Which you go by company policies. Anything that's taken out of the store that is not paid for by law it's shoppingliting regardlessof the amount. Another thing is establishment communication with the police, by going by the station to introduce yourself. Business are private property. So yes law enforcement will listen and let you on behalf of the store make the decisions

@@earvetta None of that explains why it is the stores fault that the police went after someone that did not fit the description they were provided....was it a store employee that pointed at the innocent guy and said.....get him.....

Exactly, if a cop mistakenly questions anyone they should sue. I've been wrongfully questioned by cops and I was embarrassed, I want 10 trillion at least.

@@johnames6430 mistakenly questioning is not what happened here, they deemed the suspect

Nah, they just made a mistake and they apologized profusely. The report didn't even mention to the cops that it was a white guy.

I disagree ! I believe that they are so stupid they don't even know what they were doing was wrong ! Disgusting

Most cops are just like their Ancestors. wicked and they wonder why so manny of us Don't trust them

Make sure you make a formal complaint. Too many times this happens and POC don't m File a complaint. At least for the PD I worked for this was the case and am sure it is the same for other jurisdictions.

Wow. Dats y people love wen cops get they muthafukin brains blown out. 🧠 🔫. Yep. Racism

Well Mel, that is very unfortunate & I’m sure it has scared your son as well as the other children. The good thing for you & your son is you can sue & you will be taken seriously & you will probably receive a settlement or compensation for the mishap with your son. The sad thing is that black individuals are often dismissed & told it happens like the officer initially said to the innocent man. Our cases or complaints fall on deaf ears & we cope until it happens again

Lo hacen xq son racistas y piensan q tu hijo es un pedaso de mierda,tiene suerte q no Telo mataron,imgainaye todo loq ha sucedido x tantos años sin cámaras para grabarlos,en la frontera los hemos visto matar niños!!! Suerte amigo así está este mundo racista y clasista!!

Well, that’s because that’s the name they made for themselves! So my suggestion is don’t let your white kids hang out w black kids or this is what u get!

Police officers who lie cannot be trusted. And, police officers 99.99% of the time will lie to justify their racist actions.

I recall hearing stories about the old west... when someone called you a liar you could shoot that fuck dead in his heart AND be justified in court, because that was the worst thing you could call an honest man, and yet today cops with their itchy trigger fingers walk around calling everyone liars.

Caucasian man with green jacket and they stop a Black Man in a orange jacket!🤯 The other officer in training said he doesn't fit the description!😮

Not true at all. 😂

@@ryans9029 Actually true at all times. What is the criminal code for putting your hands in your pockets? There isn’t one because it’s not a crime to put your hands in your pocket.

Ryan s mr know it all / it is true

Sure. It's not a lawful order. I agree. So go ahead and keep your hands in your pockets when the cops tell you not to. See how that works out for you.

@@davecarsley8773 That went right over your head. I didn’t suggest anyone not do it. My point is that cops are drunk on their perceived authority and usually say it for their ego’s sake. Not their safety. So many cops on here trying to give advice on how to just bend over and take it. Eat their shit with a knife and fork and nobody gets hurt. I’ve heard it all before. It thanks for the advice.

Logic doesn't apply,humanity is disregarded ,hatred thrives,rich get richer...

@@wiolettapagowski5590 yeah anytime I try to understand instances of racism, I have to remind myself there is no logic in racism and therefore no way to understand it

Back to preschool they go. Tan, orange all the same. Schsh.

just like black and white not the same

Then why do some people say Trump is well tanned ,while others say he's orange. In the end it turns out nobody knows what green looks like.

Yep. That cop got a pat on the back when returning to the station for almost making an arrest on a Black man.

Well the city settled the lawsuit!😅

My opinion - The officers made a mistake BUT America is full of entitled people like that guy JUST SHOW THEM THAT YOU HAVENT TAKEN ANYTHING AND ITS OVER. THATS IT INSTEAD OF LECTURING THEM JUST PROVE IT!!! Oh America 🤦‍♂️🤷

@@nathanvarghese. They did not make a mistake. They profiled the black 60 year old man. When they were looking for a 30 year old white man. Clothing did not match the description. Don't allow your rights to be violated.

@@nathanvarghese. In America you don't have to prove innocence they have to prove guilt. You don't have to assist them gathering evidence against you. "No not me, No I didn't do it, F*** off and demand 1st 4th 5th 14th amendments wont talk till lawyer present" see you in court twice once for my innocence and once for my civil case have a nice day LOL

Last year white cops murdered a 17 year old unarmed white kid foreal y'all they didn't put it in the world news only the local news they usually only put the black deaths on the news because the illuminati want blaks and whites fighting each other so we can't come together the real enemy is the illuminati not the police but most Police so crazy u can't tell them nothing stupid cops. police and people supposed to b working together but the illuminati has a racism agenda they pushing it's deep.

If a lot of people knew that a white kid was murdered by a cop there would be a lot more dead cops

DISPATCHER SAID WHITE MALE ------------ COPS PURE RACIST===========

probably had black man in loss prevention too, almost guarantee ti, it doesn't matter if the store manager is black or loss prevention the black man will always play the race card and try to get money.

They need an entirely new loss prevention team. That bright Orange hat should’ve been one of the main parts of the description and they dropped the ball BAD

what minute in did they tell them ..the culprit was white?

Lmao yeah he was pissed but I understand that's embarrassing

Shopping while Black? Yes sir, that's against the law. Breathing while shopping while Black is not criminal but still a violation.

I commend this gentleman for continuing to press the point because obviously the people involved didn't know the seriousness of what they did and especially to a black man. Because of the attitudes and blatant disrespect and murders the police have perpetrated on men of colour, it is not unusual for them to be scared for their life anytime an officer is nearby. You'll notice he knew exactly that the police arrived before he did and even probably prepared to say that if he was illegally detained / profiled.

Lol KZfaq keeps deleting my comment for using the word black.. so I abbreviated B**ck and miraculously my comment stopped being deleted..

@@thetruepatriot7733 Cop number one omitted the fact that the dispatch call DID advise the color of the suspect...then went on to describe the clothing...It wasn't the loss prevention guy...it was this cop diverting from the dispatch call...

@@4catsnow yes.. I agree the cop was told the suspect was white but he subconsciously thought the suspect was black... BECAUSE most shoplifters are B**ck.

yup, plus beat him for "resisting"

1000% TRUE

Oh no oh no oh no no no no no...help him omgsssh what's to be done..he has lost all of his dignity..🙀 Shit.

That's why they do a thing called investigate and talk to him to stop sure that guy was an idiot he could have just waited and talked to them so they were sure he wanted to start and fight and yell so he seems like he's so brave for yelling at a cop

@CimarronWay probably has happened to him a few times before n he tired

@@idkwhattoput777 they were called for a white individual with totally different of clothes. There's no way they mistook him for the guilty party. Even as they were talking to him the store through the intercom was telling them where the subject was. He had every right to get annoyed

@Ian La Coste cops have an obligation to act professionally... ad if they cant do that... like in any profession.... they need to find a new job.

Why you still here then? Go back to Africa

I get that, race or no race, however, it happens to black people much more often, so please try to understand why people get so upset.

And please miss me/us with the race or no race BS. The only thing those men had in common was the COLOR orange. Their prejudices drove their actions. There's no way the both of them heard or told the other orange hat and they both heard orange coat/jacket.

@@P3P33U Orange hat is different from jacket. They heard the race. This training officer was training the other officer to learn how to harass. I used to work for a PD and this is too commonly done.

​@@mrjaybee73 You have no idea how many times it happens to white people too. In highschool two friends & I were mistaken for stealing a class graduation ring. My principle didn't believe us, held us for hours while unappropriately searching us individually several times. They eventually found the kid who stole, a hispanic kid in a gang. None of us ever received any apologies from our school board or principles. This is one of many examples.

​@@gocubsgo721 "This is one of many examples." Do you have a example of cops doing this to you in a store like they did this guy?

You couldn't even see the f****** cops face.

@@nathanvarghese. consider watching the entire video played at trial you can cleary hear dispatch describe the person they were supposed to look for,yes he lied straight to that mans face, he knew exactly what he was doing

A white man calling a black man “boss” is racial as f*!k! White people are masters at using racist code words.

@@nathanvarghese. how that boot taste?

They wanted the black man to be guilty

Yes they absolutely 100% profiled him. There's no other explanation for it

If they couldn't catch the real crook they'll get the next best thing an innocent Blackman....

They absolutely profiled him. There's no other explanation.

Suspect is a blonde woman in high heels F it I'll just go after the black guy

❤️

And every penny he’s owed by cops state and store he ❤️ EVERY PENNY !.

For real, questioning a black man should automatically give him 10 Trillion if he ends up not being the suspect. Personally I think we should just tell officers to let black people do whatever they want, just let them commit crimes and don't bother to question them because that would be racist.

I just wanna give him a hug 🤗

@@johnames6430 black folks always have to pull the race card. Always

Exactly!

In many states concealing merchandise is a crime.

I heard he was cutting the packaging off but may have misheard something.

Because you put items in a cart 🛒 and not your pockets?

Because concealing merchandise clearly demonstrates your intention not to pay for it. You've got 20 items in a shopping cart and five items in your jacket you don't plan on paying the for the five items in your jacket. If you did they would be in your cart.

duhhhhh

Ilkr!! I hope these officers are absolutely mortified

@CimarronWay Yes go cry harder.

@CimarronWay just a troll account. You’ve been commenting all over videos capturing this incident. Go get a hobby.

Time to put a huge Black Lives Matter sign across, and up and down that store parking lot.

They should’ve told the caller they can’t do nothing until the shoplifter is apprehended. Normally they get stopped when leaving the store with stolen merchandise. Both the officers and the managers were in the wrong in their own ways.

Yup everyone who makes a mistake needs to be fired. It's not worth it to stop shoplifters anymore. Imagine losing your job on this cuz some guy tried to steal 50 bucks worth of merchandice...but the officer questioned the wrong person and now is out of a job. This is why they just let the blacks steal now as long as it's under 700 dollars. It's not worth losing your job or bad publicity.

Yup, it's time to just fire all white people and hire only blacks. We the taxpayers can't afford to hand out the keys to the city and millions in dollar to every black person that gets wrongfully questioned in the vicinity of a crime.

Too funny. “Well Barney, last I saw it, it was between aisles 9 and 11.”

"In a call to 911, a Meijer loss prevention worker described a white suspect who was wearing a dark green/gray Carhartt coat with a red hoodie underneath. Eric Lindsay, the innocent Black shopper stopped by police, was wearing a puffy burnt orange coat with a scarf." The Loss Prevention worker got it right. The dispatcher relaying the information also got it right. The police ignored the correct description and decided to accuse an innocent man, instead. I say "ignored" the description rather than made a mistake because it's evident from 3:23 that they KNEW the guy they were approaching didn't match the description.

Oh please....just open yoyr orange jacket. No need to start shrieking

@@mimibee626 Yeah, just subject yourself to unlawful search. That's a great precedent to wilfully propagate 🙄

Clearly you don’t know or don’t care about your rights. But for the rest of us that do…. the lack of police work here is shameful.

@@mimibee626 Let me guess...you are white...right?

Maybe the store should have been clearer as to where the Police needed to be..?

@@ed7519 The store and dispatch both relayed where the suspect was and what he looked like. This is on the cops for dismissing that info and on the store manager for not defending his LP employee when he knew the police fucked up.

Normally retailers don’t stop shoplifters until they try to leave the store with stolen merchandise. Seems like the managers weren’t doing things correctly as the officers normally go to the loss prevention room to pick up suspects. Officers also were wrong for walking around the store looking for the suspect.

How is this retail's fault? The cops were racist.

And that of which?

@@dto1270 That the man was pissed and emotionally distressed that he got profiled while the theif was calm to make himself look innocent Tf what do u mean that of which this shit made me go through so much emotions even though that it wasen't me

Silent & guilty af.. Innocent upset as he should be

Right I can’t believe the real shoplifter did get away he had many of chances to just walk right out the store with the stolen items! The racist cops didn’t care they was to busy looking for blacks that they hate

Exactly! And yes, the disclaimer at the beginning would be comical if it wasn't so terrifying. It's just a long-winded way to say that we should trust a cop's memory over concrete video evidence.

He my favourite guy of the crew. What an elegant Uncle Tom to seal this deal 😂😂

In the store I used to work in, security ALWAYS detained the thieves first AND THEN the cops came and took it from there-- BUT before they even got to that point in order for security to even approach them, the thief had to be on their way out the door with the stolen merchandise instead of in the middle of a store aisle like we see in this video. The cops in my store would show up, go straight into the security office where the thief was being kept, then after about 10 minutes or less you'd see the person/people go out in handcuffs. I'm pretty sure that 10 minutes or less was spent with the police viewing the video evidence of the stealing that had occurred. They never just came into the store and took the person away or confronted the person straight away like they did in this video. Also, as far as who steals more, I wouldn't doubt for a minute that those numbers are misreported-- JUST LIKE how the true numbers are misreported about black people being the main ones who are on welfare.

@@greatgownsbeautifulgowns I'm a retired Asset protection Coordinator, you're correct. You have to have your 5 elements before approaching shoplifters . If they turn the corner you lost eye sight there goes your shoplifter. You can not approach them. It's best to have other Apa or members of managements watching . Never go after one alone. They have to have passed all points of registers,unless there's a sidewalk sale. Most stores now are installing vestview in their stores. Which is a entance before you get to the main entrance to the store. Never have I had police to to come in the store without making contact with loss protection or management. I have been on the phone with 911 operators telling the location of the shoplifters. All ways have your Apa members of managements or associates that are designated to help apprehend shoplifters

@@earvetta Exactly! We were told to alert security if we saw somebody stealing instead of going up to them. I've never seen a manager go up to a shoplifter and stand there while they're being apprehended whether security was dealing with the thief or after police arrived.

@@greatgownsbeautifulgowns A member of management should be with a APA associate or the APC, never go after a shoplifters by your self if a manager isn't available select other reliable associates. It's to dangerous you don't know if they have any weapons or if they will fight you. Not only that when they see more than one Ap or associate they're less likely to run. There's safety in numbers also witness. My managers and a few hand pick associates knew when we called the code, they had to stop what they was doing and go to all exits doors. I took it that shoplifters was stealing from me, shrink affected my bonuses. Believe me I didn't earn the name Silver Fox for nothing. If I or one of my managers or selected associates didn't cover the doors that would a coaching from the Market Asset Protection Manger all the way up to Corporate management

FBI data confirms bulk of thefts are from Whites, but that does not fit the narrative racists craft.

@@jensen220 yes I did watch the video and all's I saw was two cops march in the store and walk up the lanes and not taking a blind bit of notice what was being said to them, because if they were listening they wouldn't have approached a bloke who walked in after them, seems like you wasn't watching properly

@@littlemissy2883 - 😂😂Maybe you should try watching all the way through. If I weren't "watching properly," I never would've posted to you.
