BEDFORD-STUYVESANT (WABC) — It was an NYPD raid to crack down on the illegal selling of untaxed cigarettes, but the manager of a Brooklyn deli says the day after police raided his store, he discovered that he had been robbed.
Now, he’s accusing one of the detectives, and he has surveillance video as proof:
The plainclothes detectives entered the Bedford-Stuyvesant deli last Friday night and immediately arrested two workers for selling loose cigarettes. The store’s elaborate 12-camera security system captured every second of the police raid.
One day later, deli manager Ali Abdullah noticed nearly $3,000 in store rent money missing from a box he kept hidden under the counter.
“I was thinking it was robbery, because I never seen the video,” he said.
He thought may be one of his workers stole the cash, so he looked at the video and was stunned when he saw detectives had found the box. He says the video clearly shows one of the detectives grabbing the stack of money, hiding behind the counter door and out of view of his supervisor, before putting what appears to be the money in his coat pocket.
“When I look at my system, I see the officer took the money,” he said. “It’s crazy.”
The NYPD viewed the surveillance video after Eyewitness News started asking questions, and an NYPD spokesman now says one detective has been suspended pending the outcome of a joint investigation between Internal Affairs and the District Attorney’s Office.
The NYPD adds that the deli has a past history of selling illegal cigarettes and marijuana. We will have more on the detectives suspension coming up on Eyewitness News at 5 p.m.
Just another one of NYPD’s (not so fine) finest who should be behind bars. And they have the nerve to arrest other non-cops for doing lesser things. This P.O.S. needs a long prison term with others of his kind.
Oldest scam in the book done by the oldest gang of thieves in the U.S.
Funny how this scop (scum + cop) knew where to look.
(wow, maybe I should get a trademark for this new word “scop” (scum + cop). But, no thanks, feel free to use it EVERYWHERE, because after all, this scum is everywhere.)
notice when mandatory evacuations are implemented for whatever reason, fire, flood etc, people return to a find their home may have survived but they have been looted, by whom? most never conceive the obvious perpetrators armed with time and opportunity that are paroling the cordon.
“When I look at my system, I see the officer took the money,” he said. “It’s crazy.”
It’s only “crazy” to those still trapped in the matrix.
Take the red pill, and it’ll make perfect sense.
