Alleged police misconduct at P
A young man visiting from out of town was thrown into a stop sign by Metropolitan Police last night at Philly Pizza, according to sophomore Dan Nunn.
Nunn and his friends were eating pizza across the street from Philly’s last night around 1:45. They were sitting on the curb with their feet in the street. An unmarked Metropolitan Police Department car pulled up with its sirens on. Three officers demanded that Nunn and his friends get their feet out of the street and threatened to arrest them.
After, the officers crossed the street to the pizza line. They turned someone in line around, and the guy put his hands up to show he wasn’t doing anything. Nunn said then the police started shoving him.
“Everybody starts freaking out,” Nunn said. The police then pushed the man into a stop sign and put him on the ground, where they got on top of him and cuffed him. After that he was taken away in their car.
“He was really getting roughed up,” Nunn said. He said the guy’s friends said he wasn’t doing anything wrong. Calls to the police department to complain and find out the arrested man’s status were fruitless, and police in the area told complaining students to get away from Philly’s or get arrested.
