Stop and Frisk, Harlem - NYPD Car Search

NYPD stop and frisk, search the car of 2 men in Harlem.

Joseph "Jazz" Hayden films the incident and questions the officers as to why they are searching the man's vehicle. The officers point their flashlights at the camera the majority of the video to hide their faces.

After the stop, the two men who were stopped and searched gave an interview to allthingsharlem.com about how they felt racially profiled and would be filing a complaint with the Civilian Complaint Review Board against the officers.

My cousin knows you from back in the day. Told me all about you.

[AllThingsHarlem]

Wow thats great! You could have saved yourself some time and just done a Google search. The info is all out there.

[MrBigcromartie]

@allthingsharlem, you are a murderer and a drug dealer.

[AllThingsHarlem]

I guess that make what these police officers are doing alright huh? Thanks for taking up you own time to join youtube today so that you could make this very important comment on this video.

[AllThingsHarlem]

I can only assume that those who support the police behavior here live in a world where this doesn't happen and, they have drank the cool-aid served up by the media that blacks and crime are synonymous. Well, the policemen in this case released these men without so much as a traffic ticket, an acknowledgement that the men did nothing wrong. There was no crime! Did you consider that when you made your remarks?

[AllThingsHarlem]

@elshouse what justice are you speaking of? I didn't see any in this video.

[Malique Chante']

there is no law against recording a stop and frisk or arrest so get your camera phones out

THIS IS F-UP THEY ARE COWARDS AND THEY NEED TO BE EXPOSED EVERY CHANCE WE GET TO DO SO GOOD JOB JAZZ KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO BROTHER

[John Hucul]

yes what these cops are doing is unconstitutionl....but what does the color of anyone have to do with this....as a white man I was offended. Crime is crime and what these police are doing is a crime. It's not black on black crime... it is crime. The comment of this is why prisons are full of black men, and the comment of putting a black face on the enforcement . It is also an offense to every black police officer.I hope you realize this happens to everyone that is poor , not just minorities

[guitarguy1031]

that's just sad... I'm glad that I've never been to New York...

Yea right

[Edgar Perret-Gentil]

Thanks to people like Nicky Barnes and his "underlings" that planted a disease in Harlem the new generation and young men like these two guys are paying the price. The cops aint no angels, i know that. but the drug pushers blend in with regular citizens, things will get better for those two guys' kids in the future.

The cop with the flashlight should get the ever loving shit kicked out of him. Taxpayers paid for him to flash light....nice

[MrRaptur3 .]

pretty soon you will need a retina scan to walk block to block...

[justatube]

great comment about the police officer shinning his flashlight.

if he would do a proper job and would be proud about it and would have a reason he would be happy beeing on camera and he wouldn't shine his flashlight.

[Sara Ivy]

These cops should be tried and hung for treason. This video will live forever. Thank you for capturing this injustice happening up there.
