I watched the whole video. While the cops obviously didn’t follow normal procedure, and have some what gone out alone, the full story appears to be they are recovering one of the cop’s daughter’s stole phone which was mugged from her. Perhaps the only way to get something done in a bankrupt city… They are wearing badges and uniform so the exact line they have crossed is perhaps procedural only.
If the cops felt there were acting outside the law, would they have done this in such a public place with CCTV?
We obviously don’t know the full story, but it also doesn’t seem to be as black&white as Rob implies, even the Fox article suggests otherwise.
