... Connecticut cops had their guns pointed straight at him during a traffic stop last week -- and the terrifying incident was caught on video.
The police footage from the incident is intense ... officers pointed firearms at the Yanks exec and screamed at him to get out of the car and slowly move toward them. But, before officers let Cashman go, they had a funny interaction with the guy -- recognizing him as the Yankees' personnel man!!“I’m the GM of the New York Yankees,” Cashman responds.
But, Cashman says cops forgot to take the car off the stolen list when they returned it ... and when Darien cops ran his license plate, it still came up as a stolen vehicle.
'Teachable Moment'. Yankees GM did the right thing. Notice he didn't argue, listened and obeyed to the Police Officers instructions.
White privilege and no whining
If he were black he’d be dead. WhitePrivilege
It’s funny he did what was asked of him and nothing happened to him other people don’t
I hope someone gets reprimanded for not taking his car off the list on stolen cars.
Wow
Looks like he's still alive because he complied ProTip
Amazing what happens when you listen and don’t act like an asshole to cops. Also helps that you have robbed every other MLB team in every trade you ever done.
Reminder that if you prefer everyone has a gun, police have to assume you do when they need to confront you. It’s a bad situation to have guns flooding society
Brian, sometimes these unique situations can get yo ass shot. You did everything right on your end and STILL....
Also, Connecticut....
White privilege wins again.
Thank God He Wasn’t Killed
Lol. Like to see that report about the gun at a doctors office. lol. Sounds like some BS.
Must be Sox fans.

Must be nice to get special treatment
This can’t be true, cops only do this to black people...
The core item here is how it was deescalated. They did not cuff him and let him go back and reach into his vehicle with officers at least 5-10 feet away. I’m not saying it should not be done this way but that deescalation should be the norm.
Thanks I'm gonna sleep good tonight now
he is white though!
What in the hell am I looking at? Oh, two hands holding a pistol and the dingy hanging down is a finger.
Misunderstanding
If he moved the wrong way he would be dead. More great police work, why didn’t they pull him over and ask him for ID, is that too hard to do. Why would they think his car was stolen ?
It happen everyday to black people what’s da difference
I’ve met Cashman on many occasions through the years. Pretty decent guy.
Love to hear where the white privileged people are on this ?
