California Cop Snatches Phone From A Woman During A Traffic Stop, Fearing It To Be A Weapon!
​The incident occurred on the morning of April 12 along Meadow Road near Garvey Avenue when the woman, Eileen Aquino, and her husband were driving a vehicle without license plates from an auto glass and vehicle sales business they own in West Covina, she told KTLA.
When they were stopped by a West Covina Police Department patrol car, the couple provided proper documentation, Aquino said. Officers ran her husband’s ID, finding he was on probation for a gun violation, Aquino said.
One of the officers was polite at first, she said, but his demeanor changed when he found out her husband, Chris Moreno, was on probation.
Then officers ordered her and her husband Chris to get out of the vehicle because they wanted to search it. Aquino said she and Moreno asked for a higher-ranking officer to be present during the search, but the officers denied their request. They were complying when her husband was cuffed and was taken to the side of the car, she said.
She began recording while she was still in the vehicle and an officer approached her side of the car, soon telling her to put the phone down. She refused. Posted By Ghost
