After LaForge confronted him with a video camera, the man could be seen standing up and walking away.

LaForge and Hunter following him, saying: “The cops are on their way. You know what this is? This is a citizen’s arrest. You’re not going anywhere.”

When LaForge and Hunter caught up with the man, they tried to detain him. In the video, LaForge could be seen pushing him against a wall, and yelling threats and obscenities at him.

The man could be heard saying, “I got to go. Please don’t touch me.”
