VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. – Police departments in Hampton Roads, as well as Virginia State Police, have responded to abuse allegations said to involve a local police department made in a Twitter post that has been shared over 100,000 times.

Tuesday morning, a series of tweets were published by a woman detailing an alleged situation involving her boyfriend that had occurred in Virginia Beach in the early morning hours.

The woman claims her boyfriend had left their Norfolk home around 10:30 p.m. to drop a friend at the Newport News-Williamsburg International Airport and had stopped at a 7-Eleven in Virginia Beach on the way back. At the 7-Eleven, the man reportedly gave a panhandler some change before returning to his vehicle and getting back on the road. As he got onto the interstate, the woman says he was pulled over and police told him they had seen him give the panhandler change. The tweets then detail an aggressive approach by an officer demanding information and making accusations that he had marijuana in the vehicle. The woman says her boyfriend was asked to get out of the car with his hands on his head and he was reportedly held at gunpoint while the officer continued to demand his information. At some point, she says additional officers and someone identifying themselves as a Sheriff showed up at the scene. The officers allegedly breathalyzed the man and used a K-9 to search his vehicle. He was eventually let go and allowed to call her and tell her what was going on, she says, and he returned home.

The Virginia Beach Police Department responded to the woman several times on Tuesday after the tweets started to gain traction. They said they were looking into the incident but it did not appear to have involved any of their officers.
