It makes no sense. >> We're investigating a possible crime right now. >> A police officer approached a man who was lawfully performing work at a commercial property and quickly treated him as a criminal suspect based solely on an unverified anonymous report of a possible break-in. Despite having no evidence that a crime had occurred, the officers repeatedly demanded identification and continued questioning him without establishing a clear legal basis for their actions. When the man calmly refused to surrender his ID and challenged the officers to explain the lawful grounds for their demands, they continued to pressure him and prolong the investigation while failing to produce any evidence of wrongdoing. But, instead of backing down, he remained calm, recorded the encounter, and firmly defended his rights. In the end, when the officers could not show that he had committed any offense or justify further detention, they were forced to end the confrontation and leave without issuing any charges. >> It worked. >> The owner is looking at this, though. Like, he got 45 cameras on this building. >> No, I get it. >> He's looking at us work. So, whoever called, that's crazy as hell, bro.

Like, "Hey, the police got called on >> I'm not putting something on somebody's window for no reason. That makes no sense. >> I know that. So, just call him so we can confirm it. >> I'm not doing it. This is ridiculous. This is ridiculous. >> You said it earlier, we got to do our job, right? >> Right, but y'all if this is a business, y'all should know how to get in contact with the owner, as well, too. >> What's that? >> Should know how to get in contact with the owner if this is a business. somebody says a burglary attempt going on. >> Do you have got your ID on you? >> No, for what? Am I being detained? >> Can I have your ID, please? >> No, sir. >> something. >> Now, y'all are investigating something? >> Yeah, I mean >> First, you said somebody called and said there was a burglary attempt going on.

Am I going to do this for nothing? That makes no sense. You're looking at it. I don't know. There you go. Yeah, I wouldn't just be putting this on somebody's window without their knowledge. That makes no sense. Right. Well, if y'all don't see that's what's going on, that's the name of the company I'm here putting this on the window, what am I doing? I'm talking about this company.

So, whoever said something is going on. >> Do you know the owner of the property, right? >> If I'm working for him, I would absolutely know. Makes no sense, you know what I mean?
