A video went viral over the weekend of a Black man being wrongfully detained by police while minding his business at a Virginia Beach mall.

In it, a man identified by his wife as Jamar is seen being handcuffed while eating in the food court with his family at Lynnhaven mall. The officer who remains unidentified accused Jamar man of owning a stolen black truck and using stolen credit cards.

The video shows the man reasonably becoming irritated as officers escort him out while his wife shouts; “What did he do? He did nothing. We don’t have a black truck!”

The police and the wife urge the man to stay calm but he’s clearly upset because the police didn’t even bother to question him before detaining him. Ultimately Jamar was released and an officer was seen in the video apologizing.

“We got a description of someone who was using stolen credits cards. That man is a Black man with dreads and he’s wearing all black and was with a boy that was wearing read,” the officer said.

“I sincerely apologize. It was a complete misunderstanding,” the officer said. “If he was using stolen credit cards and had a stolen vehicle then I wouldn’t have talked to him. I would’ve just taken him into custody and detained him, okay?”

SOMEBODY NEEDS TO BE FIRED.

The incident has caught the attention of the likes of T.I. and racked up MILLIONS of views.

Local Virginia newspaper The Virginia Pilot says an investigation into the incident is ongoing.

“Certainly, anyone would be upset about being detained for something they didn’t do,” Police Chief Paul Neudigat said about the video. “While the video shows the officer stayed calm and respectful throughout the brief encounter, we must ensure the situation merits the response. We are gathering all the facts to evaluate the incident so we can address the concerns people have raised.”

Kanye West Questions Kim Kardashian’s Control Over North’s Name

HonkMagazine

Kanye West is once again in the spotlight, and this time, it’s not just about his music or fashion. He recently took to Twitter to express his frustrations about something personal, why his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, holds the rights to their daughter North West’s name. He shared a legal document that outlined the trademarks associated with North’s name, asking his followers how they felt about the situation. This revelation comes amidst ongoing efforts for parents to co-parent their four children. While Kanye and Kim have tried to appear united for their kids, it’s evident there have still been unresolved tensions between them since their high-profile divorce.

At the heart of this issue isn’t just about the trademark rights but also about who has control over North’s future. Kim, who has built a successful business empire using her family name, took these legal steps to safeguard North’s name as a valuable asset. However, Kanye feels left out of this decision and worries about his father’s rights. Also, it’s worth noting that North has recently been making more public appearances, especially related to Kanye’s VULTURES project. This has led to speculation that Kim’s move to secure the trademarks could be a way of managing how North’s name is used in upcoming projects and businesses.

This situation raises important questions about parental rights and how celebrity children are raised in the public eye. Should Kanye have had a say before these trademarks were secured? Is Kim simply looking out for North’s future? Or is this just another episode in the ongoing power struggle between two of the world’s most famous stars? This is not the last time we’ll hear about Kanye and Kim’s complex relationship and their ongoing efforts to navigate co-parenting.
