"Is That A Mic In Your Pocket...?"
Los Angeles/Keystone cops after robbers instead bust a Bloomberg news crew doing story on paparazzi. Oopsy! Story at WeHo Daily and LA Observed.
Loved this quote posted on WeHo Daily from Brittany Joe, who they say, "was observing the extraction nearby, unaware that police were looking for robbery suspects":
"This is what happens in West Hollywood, six cop cars with guns drawn on a CAMERA CREW. The sound guy still has his head phones and fanny pack on. Maybe they thought his boom was a gun?"







I think they caught it from Massachusetts. A mall went into lockdown the other day due to an umbrella.

How funny- I just saw an ad for one of those Samurai umbrellas and thought they we're very cool.

The LAPD. Not the Sheriffs. The sheriffs have a functioning civilian review board, and it works. Not the LAPD.
