Bodycam video shows Huntsville police arrest man for initially declining to show his ID.
Three federal judges sided with a mechanic suing Huntsville officers for false arrest, writing in an opinion this week that Alabamians do not have to show identification when asked by the police.
A customer called Edger in June of 2019 and told him that his wife’s red Toyota Camry had broken down at the church where she worked in Huntsville, according to federal court records. McCabe began questioning Edger. Edger told McCabe that he was fixing a car for his customer. McCabe then pointed to a black hatchback parked nearby and asked whose car it was. Edger replied that it was his.
“Okay. No, you need to give me your ID or driver’s license,” Officer McCabe said in the video, as Officer Perillat approached Edger from behind. Eventually Perillat found the ID after searching Edger’s wallet. In the video, McCabe explained to Edger’s stepson that Edger was going to jail because he obstructed an investigation by refusing to give her his identification.
