A 21-year-old black male had guns pointed at him even while he had his hands up. His alleged crime? Running a stop sign.

A 21-year-old black man justifiably panicked when several cops pulled guns on him and repeatedly screamed,"Show me your hands" ... even though he was clearly already showing them.

Later in the video, you can hear Anders crying and telling cops he's scared before his 90-year-old grandmother walks out trying to defuse the situation. But, even then cops don't approach Anders ... as one officer can be heard asking if there's anyone else in the vehicle.

Is this right or it's a crime to be black?..

Yeah but thats texas

Check their body & dash cams..

Maybe the guy kept driving until he was at a safe location, he has that right.

Then what?

It never ends.... disgusting.

you will not be happy until america has been burned down to the ground from racial riots will you? Its like you are on a mission along with CNN & CBS.

Did the cop break Protocol

Like DJ khalid says : and another one djkhaled GeorgeFloyd GeorgeFloydprotest GeorgeFloydMurder GeorgeFloydWasMurdered ahmaudarbrey

black men needs to stop making crimes if they don't want the police to come.

He kept driving for two blocks after the cop lights came on. He stayed in the car with the windows rolled up for 6 minutes while cops told hin to get out. He had a group of friends show up who also began ignoring the cop and walking to the car. Maybe print the whole story?

This is getting out of hand!

Texas targets:

When does this shit end?!! Then you wonder why people riot. If you don’t see this is an issue, you’re part of the problem...

here we go again

When will all this injustice and harassment end

Texas target is next ! 🤣🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

Good

lmaoooo wtf did the grandma do?

When did running a stop sign require guns drawn and asking a private citizen to get out of their car? He asked 4 times why they stopped him before they answered him. The only threat they saw was that he was black. Ain’t that right MidlandTxPD ?!?!

Wtf!

don’t break the law

Hopefully they loot the tmz building! Lol

Lol start more shit tmz

retrosher These police are no better than cold-blooded murderers

Here we go again

With everyone in the USA having a gun I don't blame the cop.

Cant even handle a traffic stop without fucking up everyone around them .

HAS IT BECOME TMZ'S JOB TO STIR UP RACISM!?

TMZ is trash

clarencehilljr All of that for running a stop sign? Give the man a ticket and move along.

And

shaunking

Man these cops need to stop!

Somehow I don’t think we have the whole story yet!

How bout tmz report some black on white crimes

He should have never run from the police.Period. He should have pulled over. Besides, not having a gun drawn was a potential risk to the officer’s safety. Hands up or not.

Grandma should win an Academy Award for that fake fall.

Guns out for running a stop sign dam . I don't blame anybody to stop for their asses he want to be in front of his family we have to record period. God Bless grandma. She protect her love one❤❤❤❤

Stop the race baiting tmz!

My god, what is wrong with American...this is shocking

TMZ JUST GOT A WOODY

Enough is Enough😠

Theses f*cking cops sure know how to make a situation 💯 times worse than it has to be

I AM SORRY ON BEHALF OF MY RACE!!! I DONT UNDERSTAND

IS THIS REAL LIFE

I can’t even watch this. We’re being hunted.

Keep flaming

Wow, race-baiting TMZ. Of course you will have a gun pointed in your face if you flee or refuse to get out of your car. Come one! Quit this shit.

I believe its procedure to have gun drawn when someone doesn't pull over immediately regardless of race or sex. It's called a felony stop I think if you drive longer than actually needed to pull over.

What are you doing Tmz? Stop trying to put more fuel on this chaos.

What in the actual fuck? This is infuriating

These officers clearly need some better training! Cop doesn’t sound sure of himself and is tugging on granny. When my mom was frail, it hurt her to be jerked around like that. This is all wrong!!!

Watch live pd

You get shot for running a stop sign? Ok.

Dude was in the ground pleading !!! And they pushed his 90 year old grandmother .. shit is mind boggling

we need change now peace is not working

We need to do away with police and have robots take over their jobs. Ones without fear, prejudice and racism

I remember when all these stories and videos came out when Obama was President. People blamed him for fueling the race war and police violence. We still blaming him or are we going to acknowledge we have a real problem in this country?

It's a highly stressful job that requires split second decisions. Plus most of the people that are drawn to this profession are into guns and violence. All you can really do is try not to break the law and always follow a cops orders.

Nice unbiased racebaiting. You don’t even know what happened up to that point. Smh

Yes this is what happens when you don’t stop for the police, refusing to get out from a blacked out car and being confrontational... and the people around should have known better to not interfere with a police investigation. 🤦‍♂️

dude whats the fuck have been happening lately with cops like back to back with this bullshit never gonna end ! since beginning of this year have been a lot cases of this cop doing this bullshit

😕

Imagine teachers teaching your kids after only 6 months of instruction. Sounds crazy right? Imagine that but with a gun

When did cops stop using tasers

did y’all watch the video ? smh all dude had to do was pull over for running a red stop sign . instead he’s acting like a fool and making things complicated

Agreed, there is more to the story.

These cops have Bob business of being COPs if they are afraid of black people

Wonder why you are tweeting this

Bruh, this is too much.

TMZ getting their race hustling on....right on cue!

Wtf is wrong with some of these cops?

Ok...so what's the rest of the story. Do we have to wait for that, or do we just start destroying cities and beating the shit out of people(?)

It never ends 😢💯

It’s Texas. I grew up there. This man has every right to be scared. Texas cops can murder black people and NOTHING will happen. Ruby red and proudly racist, Texas will always be Texas.

A question for the people who aren’t racist and can get past the fact that we all know the cops were wrong for telling him to get up ...Why did the grandma try to intervene? If I’m getting arrested and my grandma tries to intervene, I’m not gonna feel bad if she gets hurt

Wow seriously?! Unbelievable

I feel like we're back in 1940 where people of color were just getting killed or discriminated against just by existing and being on the streets. 🤮

The Young Man Did Right By Getting Himself To A Situation To Have As Many Witnesses As Possible. The Police Will Seize The Opportunity To Harass Blacks On The Smallest Offense. It's Never Give Me My Ticket And GO! We Always Receive Some BS Lecture Or Provoked Making Things Worse

Completely fucking unnecessary, cops need to be treated like civilians when they get trigger happy. Tired of reading “suspended with pay”

They did all of this just because he ran an stop sign are serious

COME ON!! These officers need some serious training in de-escalation. There were multiple officers there. Were you that intimidated by one guy? That is total B.S. If you are such cowards you shouldn't be permitted to carry a weapon and have any authority. Poor Grandma.

Cops will be replaced with robots 2039 Future predicted

All of a sudden you dont wanna post about which Kardashians titties are out?

Body cam footage from arresting officer! Be prepared for the truth! “Real eyes realize real lies”

These bad cops give all races except african american a bad name.

Only in USA !!! USA has become one of the most dangerous countries in the world !!!! Ratings are like Afghanistan

Tell Babcock if this was just about fighting we wouldn’t be having this conversation. This is about white cops murdering black men & Babcock is out if his Frickin mind if he think most white cops are Good WRONG,when your black Babcock then your opinion will have more validation

Yeh I seen it on TMZ wow

TMZ you should be shamed of yourself, here is a video showing what led up to his traffic stop

Man wearing a moo moo?

I hate cops as much as the next person BUT this is the fault of the young man. Just be calm and take the damn ticket. He escalated the entire thing. The Cop did a good job in my opinion on this situation from not letting his emotions get the best of him.

Do they speak the same language? It looked like cops and house residents come from different planets

FUCK 👏🏾 THE 👏🏾 POLICE.

Dumb

WTF IS WRONG WITH THE POLICE? Who raised them?

Is this all you guys do anymore tmz? Is race bait?

Good ole redneck Texas

Let me fix this for ya.. cops pull gin on guy who could have gotten a ticket but instead ran from the cops and refused to get out of his car.. oh and he’s black.

BlackLivesMatter you need to turn up the volume coast to coast if you wanna Create some real change. Unite all races.... We are not all racists... injustice has no race, hate has no race.... Covid stopped the earth.... make your movement louder....when they push you push harder

tmz is a fucking joke now. This is a perfect arrest. Dude ran from the cops. The cops don't know if he's armed, dude listens to the cops and is arrested without incident. This isn't the problem. What happened to George Floyd is the problem.

I didnt see anything wrong here, cops were being nice and not being racist in anywy. Man should just follow instructions, and the grandma just fell over, no one touched her, dude ran a stop sign so yea, cops just doing job the way they supposed to.

Can’t hide what you really are behind closed doors forever 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

😡😬

COPS NEED BETTER TRAINING ESPECIALLY IN THE MINORITY DEPARTMENT ..... THEY NEED TO STOP THINKING ANYONE WHO ISN'T WHITE IS A THREAT .....

I’m done with They are nothing but Fake , bullshit news

OUR BLACK men are scared for their lives!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where are the black cops in all this... where's there voice

The fuck

codeblue on the streets . Of has bounties on their heads. Steer clear

novictimnocrime

Tf goin on this week man

TMZ straight hustlin lol

This needs to stop immediately! It’s time for a revolution

I had guns drawn on me too as a teenager and made to get on the ground for running stop sign. It happens. Just follow orders and keep your hands up.

This is bullshit

Poor journalism to run an almost 2 week old story amidst heightened racial tensions. Shame on you TMZ.

This country is broken...United we are not

This is so old

Big surprise, remember they shot this one

Time to riot in Texas too

THIS WILL TURN INTO A WAR BETWEEN CITIZENS AND THE GOVERNMENT IT ONLY TAKES ONE BULLET IN A PROTEST

Stop 🖐🏼. We don’t need to incite more rioting.

That's heartbreaking.

Ran a fucking stop sign

What’s going to happen the people are gonna be going against the cops. And I don’t think the cops will win on this one! Too many cops are trigger-happy

All this for rolling through a stop sign? You can hear the fear in this poor mans voice, fearing he was going to be killed and not knowing why. His poor 90 year old grandma trying to protect him....this is so sad...

This looks like a mess on both sides

The drivers actions is no better than AmyCooper s Karening in NYC at park! This guy was acting like he was the victim when he ran several stop signs and speeding away from police followed by refusing to get out of car the first time asked!

Just write up a ticket, put it on his damn car...but if dude would have come up on me and get all in my face, while I’m trying to write this ticket..I will have tazer his ass! Don’t fucking try me! Bad enough when I told you to walk towards me you, you never did...

_SheAVirgo _DamnThatsAce

the police went to handcuff him. She then faked a fall in the guy, saying she was pushed by the police. This was a simple stop and talk but the guy made it a shit show because he didn’t want a ticket. So stop your BS about “poor, inncocent law breakers” vs the mean ole police.

They fear us that much... WOW!

You guys are the worst.

Then he finally exited his car after a crowd of family & friends came over to insert themselves into the traffic stop, and was yelling and screaming at the officer, not listening to anything the police were telling/asking him. Then his grandma came out, refused to move when...

That was BRUTAL!!!

Let's stop making a big deal out of EVERY situation. George Floyd was a BIG deal.

maybe protocol needs to change but i know in my district, if you don't stop within a certain amount of time, a gun is drawn on you no matter what color you are.

Damn

Wait he got arrested for running a stop sign?

Keep flaming the fires

Those police officers are real criminals, those police officers should be in jail 😱

RealJamesWoods wheres your outrage here?

and attacked an old lady

Maybe stop breaking the law 🧐

the video doesn't show how far he drove after he allegedly ran the stop sign or when the cops asked him to pull over. He came out screaming (but he's young), and there was a crowd forming. Is the cop supposed to get his weapon drawn like that or should it be holstered?

TMZ stop fanning the flames, this is pathetic

All in on a pre election race war again, I see?

The United States Police Department is out of control

Per media reports: The (white) serial killer who was arrested in Hagerstown, MD, yesterday, was brought in without incident. 😑

Texas wants a riot too ?

Great story it is you who is enticing hate and war of Cops vs. Blacks.

So a ran stop sign can get you killed in almighty USA 🇺🇸

Tmz....fueling the fire

Because I'm sure he didn't comply with any of their commands

High time people starts jungle justice on the cops💀

Cmon man. This dude was lit up by a Patrol car and he decided to keep driving home. Gtfoh

The president order us to do this

That’s no Grandma, that’s Martin Lawrence

Some police are really on a power trip🤨

They trying to kill black folks off before Novembers election. Or at least jail them so they can't vote.

Quit your Soros agenda HarveyLevinTMZ HARVEY!!! MediaVirus HollywoodMELTDOWN

I can’t imagine this happening for a stop sign. Give him a ticket and move on!!! These cops are high on power, drunk on hate.

Why is the media trying to start a race war?

Black male Looks like a black old lady

Seems excessive...

Let me guess. He didn’t do nuffin

Gotta hear both sides

This country is so racist man 😔

Hands up doesn’t mean unarmed
