He needs to have a meeting with the bank. So that this never happens again. But I would be pressing charges to set an example. Or so this wont happen again I would get all my money and switch banks.
to me it more looked like he was trying to keep his rage in and succeded in being the bigger human.. personally i would prob rage and throw names in this sit. even if that makes it worse i just know i wouldnt be able to contain myself like him
It severely pisses me off every time I see an officer say that. Don't tell me to calm down when my whole family has just been put into handcuffs and treated like criminals for nothing.
do business at the branch that knows you. I learned that lesson real fast. Im sure on top of this... the teller was asking him 20 minutes of redundant questions.. ATMs are limited to cash withdrawals (for obvious reasons) but you dont have to deal with annoying tellers who gives you the 3rd degree even when you are depositing cash.
He actually has a speech impediment where he stutters over his words a lot. If you ever watch his interviews, he stutters alot. But yeah you’re right, he handled this very well somehow.
"I'm just trying to manage my emotions" My heart broke. I know what that's like. You can tell from that that he is an extremely healthy individual inside and out.
Ryan Coogler is a multimillionaire, what he should've done straight afterwards was to inform the bank he was closing his account with them and moving his money elsewhere.
@Derek Craig you ever worked at a bank before? Things like this happens all the time. Maybe from outside perspective it sounds weird but people can’t talk, don’t want to arise attention from people around him. Unless the note says I have a gun in my pocket give me all the cash, the teller should’ve read it. That of course if the teller could read
Bank teller needs to get fired and the bank needs to pay him for all the damages and public humiliation. This truly is lack of judgement and professionalism.
Exactly all blame is on the bank i hope he goes after them for a fuck ton of money and the teller personally i think the cops handled it right with the call they got of a bank robbery in progress
You can’t give a bank teller a note requesting money out, like imagine if someone had all your details and took out money from your account and his ID don’t even look like him lmaoooo
@@stevenstevenson3705 With large sums of money you can do that, but what he did was ask the teller if that was ok to do, they might of assumed something because they saw the amount in the bank account... Once I took out 8k to give my sister a loan in cash, they didn't have enough $100 bills so it was a lot of $20s and I asked if that could of been counted not at the teller, it took like 20 minutes but it was done.
@@stevenstevenson3705 I worked at B of A for 2 years. Customer slide there ATM card, enter the Pin and the account info comes up. Technically we didn't have to ask for ID, since it was 12K, the Customer already handed his ID over with the note. What about that is alarming to a teller, I don't know. I had multiple notes slide to me as a teller for large amounts of cash, never called the police!
Man Ryan is a truly amazing human being. I know myself and when I hit a boiling point it’s just uncontrollable anger and rage but I really learned from Ryan when he just asked for time and expressed he’s trying to manage his emotions. Not once did he pull the celebrity card either.
A problem most people don’t understand is that when someone doesn’t act as calm and collected as Ryan then they are viewed as aggressive and in the wrong. But it is very hard to act civil when you are blatantly being unfairly treated.
What if someone has a speech issue, and that's the only way they could request their money, by writing it down, on top of that he actually gave his ID lol... this is crazy, I would close my account there
Raise your systolic blood pressure. Inhale to a comfortable full l. Hold approximate 3-5 seconds after full inhalation. This will slow your heart rate.
When the director explained what he did - he wrote the amount, gave his own card, put in his pin, gave his ID - but the teller still decided to call the cops on him. The teller should definitely be fired for profiling. What else could a person provide so he/she would not be suspected? Who wouldn’t be irritated being arrested when you did everything you could to identify yourself? If I were him I’d definitely sue the teller and the manager of that branch and then move all my money somewhere else.
@@Nick9Three Oh come on. At the very minimum, it would be fun to dive into a pile of money like Scrooge McDuck. Or have a money fight where you throw balls of wadded up 100 dollar bills at friends. Or just make it rain!
@marshall ..?? But he did say that. In the full footage, the literal first thing he says to the cops is to "Google" him and they'd "know why he shouldn't be in cuffs".. This isn't the full version. Just sayin'..
The man gave her his ID and inserted his debit card and PIN # and still got the police called on him. What else can you do to verify….. fucking unbelievable
Yeah, I'm guessing she seen the amount in the account, and felt he wasn't worthy of that kind of money based on her own bias. She probably thought he was running some type of scam.
It's obvious he wasn't trying to rob the bank,he gave the teller instructions on what he was doing,he used his own card and pin and provided his identification to the teller, the teller overreacted and could have cost him his life...so sad...
Ima keep it 💯 he still should not have risked it though, we all know the procedure knowing how to rob a bank by slipping them a note 📝..he took the risk..as a black he should of never risked the chance of doing some BS like that, and he keep saying that he has a 5 month year baby.so why risk your life? I would neva
@@arealhauntedhouse4171 No she was a black woman. A.k.a The enemy. The police report said that Coogler handed a bank teller, described as a "pregnant Black female," a note jotted down on the back of a withdrawal slip. The note asked the teller to withdraw a sum of money larger than $10,000 from Coogler's own account, and requested that she "be discreet" when handing Coogler the cash.
Everyone is congratulating him on not name dropping, I think he deserves recognition for being an attentive father in a concerning situation. He voiced his concerns for his child right away and made sure his baby was being looked after.
If i was a cop i wouldve went into the bank, talked to the teller and told her next time dont call unless you are being robbed. That kind of stuff gets ppl killed.
@@mommyissue legally I'm not sure no one can because there's no evidence that she knew no crime was being committed. However they did release the 911 call, the note Ryan gave to her, and any evidence showing how ridiculous of a take she made that caused that unnecessary incident. Hopefully someone who knew her locally outed her and the manager.
4:23 wow. He doesn't want to reach into his pockets to check for paper or pen. Cause they might assume he has a gun. Wow. That's incredibly sad. Sad that he knows he has to do that. Luckily I haven't had to be in this situation cause I honestly would freak out and when I get nervous I put my hands in my pockets.
@@mikey5782 thats because they got a call saying he was robbing the fucking bank lmao. i mean the cops really did nothing wrong they were being nice to him the whole time
@1x0xyou're an imbecile if you think that was being dramatic. Everyone saying that is basically "tell me you're not a minority without telling me you're a minority" you all will literally NEVER get it.
@@ojstoical4044 Hold up! The POLICE didn't do Anything wrong in this situation. They followed protocol for a bank robbery.

SILLY BITCHES are the problem
Got a whole new found respect for this guy. Throughout the entire conversation, he never once said “Do you know who I am”, as many other celebrities have done in these types of situations.
@@robhay3438 Nah people like seeing stuff like this. They hate the other way it can go. That's usually made pretty clear. The teller that didn't bother using deduction skills or communication was the one in the wrong here and everyone knows it.
@@tyronejr.3087 think it was more for purposes that he’s a black panther director and would end up suing terribly. rather than to say “i’m a celebrity i don’t follow rules”
He made a movie about a guy killed while being detained by cops. It's admirable how calm he was throughout the whole ordeal. This is frustrating to watch. This Bank of America should be ashamed.
You act like cops are killing black ppl everyday. Black ppl are killing each other everyday in nyc but you worry about police gtfo and wake up you liberal
This guy is a multi-multi millionaire and an uber successful Hollywood director, and this is how they treat him. And some people say racism isn't a thing anymore...
As a teller myself we know the difference between a robbery note and a regular note. I get notes all the time in the drive thru. She & her manager should be fired or reprimanded for this. If he gave her his IDs and saw his account there is no way! Bank of America should apologize and donate to the charity of his choice
He passed the note because you don’t want everybody to know how much your pulling out this is ridiculous the bank teller should be fired she pulled up his account and everything
Passing a note, almost completely covered, is a huge red flag. The teller shouldn't be fired. The dumb customer who is drawing a large cash amount should have been called the branch or spoke to a manager. He is mostly to blame.
You’re right! He should have said, “it’s in my pocket, officer. Do you want me to reach into my pocket to get it?” You have to know how to speak to police officers when being stopped and when being detained. Obviously, many people do not. I will give him an “A” for remaining calm, though.
@@freethinker5226 that's because most law enforcement officers in this country are egotistical trigger happy shitheads who escalate too many situations. why is it the public's responsibility to know how to talk to police? cops should know how to politely talk to the citizens that pay their salaries. coogler did great. at the very least, whoever ran up on him with the glocks drawn shouldn't be copping anymore.
Even if he wanted to. He wouldn’t mention black panther. He would say he’s a director, not a director of black panther. People just know him from one movie smh it’s disrespectful
Actually, one of the first things he says to the officers is to look up his name on Google. It's just not in this particular clip from the body cam footage
This is so distressing to watch. He is legit having a panic attack. Ppl don’t understand how distressing it can be to be held against your will and accused of something you didn’t do.
I think ppl do understand that, I certainly do, from the panic attack side and being wrongfully held side, but it's not like the officers did anything wrong. If you are told someone is robbing the bank you don't just roll up and ask people how they're day is going. You show up, make the scene safe and go from there. He was treated with dignity and respect and if it had actually been someone robbing the bank he would appreciate the calm quick nature of the officers to keep him and his group safe. The real issue lies with the person who made the call. That being said, come on, you're paying such large amounts of cash that you can't speak and have to slip a note to a teller?? That makes absolutely 0 sense. As someone who dealt with large sums of cash at one point in my life, HAD ANYONE, white, black, Hispanic, From Mars, I don't care, slipped me a note asking for cash I would have been concerned and the fact the sees NOTHING WRONG with slipping a note to a bank teller that's asking for a large sum of cash absolutely blows my mind.
@@griffisjm How is slipping a note to a teller a concern when he is putting in his pin and drawing money from his own bank account? That’s completely ridiculous. I’m sure he never said I’m trying to rob the bank, give me all the funds? Ppl watch too many movies and let their imaginations take them away too far instead of dealing with what’s being proposed in front of them. It’s common sense. The guy entered his bank info. What else was he supposed to do? I agree the problem is with the teller. And though the cops were very respectful of him, they are still cops that he doesn’t know who have guns. And with everything that has happened to many innocent black men making so called suspicious movements and getting killed for it, he’s is rightfully anxious. I work alongside cops everyday, I see the way they handle ppl under arrest. It can be very intimidating. And he’s just one person. I saw at least 4 cops in that clip. It takes just one of them being a jackass claiming he sees something that is black and looks like a gun, for them all to react too quickly and hurt someone. And this poor guy is just trying to hold it together after being surrounded by authorities. That’s what I see.
@@gilbertoarellano8711 Yea, but did you see the video with the guy from the military who was sprayed in the face with mace. The guy was calm. He was only asking what he did wrong. And they just sprayed him like it was nothing. You can remain calm, do nothing and still get hurt. And all these ppl have one thing in common, the color of their skin, because apparently being black in America is seen as a threat. Even little black children are a threat. Sad 😞 But on the flip side, I see plenty videos of white ppl stealing cop cars, beating cops and even drawing guns on them, but they definitely lived to see another day, while unarmed black ppl get hurt in situations like these where they have done nothing wrong. It really pains me to see him in this video because I see him trying to hold it together, but he looks scared as hell. So being calm may help, but it doesn’t always work if the others around you have biases and perceive you as a threat anyway. 🤷🏽♀️
@@griffisjm It makes sense for him to slip a note, because you don’t just say loudly to the person working the counter “Hi, I’d like to withdraw $12,000”. Anybody with the wrong intentions could try hurt him or worse. Even if nobody did, you don’t want everybody staring at you for taking out that much cash. You never want to draw attention to yourself when withdrawing that amount of money, so it’s the bank teller’s fault. Also, he’s withdrawing out of his own account, and he had his ID. The bank teller just thought that he was stealing because of a note he slipped telling them to not make a scene out of it? Doesn’t make sense to me.
As someone who works as a bank teller, I can tell you right now that the person who handled his transaction did it wrong. So long as the information you get that he gives you (id, bank card, ect) is the same as its profile, it doesn't matter how they ask for the money.
Thank you! That teller did not do her job correctly. Idk if she had a lapse in judgement or what but she needs to be held accountable for this. Because now the police department will likely be sued. But Bank of America is at fault.
@@TJL2010 he has no case on the department they did nothing wrong they respond to a bank robbery call and detain the person the teller called on now he absolutely has a case against Bank of America and i hope he runs them for a shit ton of money and i hope he personally goes after the teller as well
@@tnbn55 he’s wearing a green hoodie and a beanie, not exactly robber gear 😂 do you wear a suit every time you go to the bank? A robber note won’t have his id and details you dummy
He is speaking to a qualified officer, who is trying his hardest to keep everything calm and collected. I am so glad that Ryan made it home safely. I’m also very happy that he was communicating with an experienced officer who was communicating with him directly and sincerely.
The officer lost me when he started talking about "have you ever tried talking to them beforehand" in reference to the idea that he should call ahead so he won't get profiled while depositing cheques. That's some pro-racism apologetics right there. Then he started saying "calm down" when the man was 100% calm. He's a below-average communicator at best but that probably still makes him an above-average officer given how low the bar is.
That’s NOT DRAMATIC…. That’s more than appropriate and that’s just doing bare minimum…. He could fight to get that teller fired including the manager or supervisor that was duty…..The teller refused to verify his account information even AFTER receiving all what’s needed…. The supervisor or manager could have came out and verified the information to ensure what they was reading was accurate…..
It is humiliating scary and dangerous you dip shits! You’s need to think where he’s coming from. He did absolutely nothing wrong.. he got treated like a criminal handcuffed and escorted in from on everyone, which is embarrassing AF.. scary because it caught him and the people that were with him off guard, and seeing guns pointing at you.. and dangerous because the cops are human they are not robots, human error happens all the time daily it just takes one mistake from one of those 5 police officers… the guys black sunglasses 🕶 or even his phone could cause a shooting by accident. When the guy was just trying to get him own money from his own bank account..
@@whatNtarnation90 Hunter calm down. He staged the whole thing to get a reaction from the bank. He went into the bank with sunglasses, a hat, handwritten note, not answering questions, withdrawing more than the federal amount, car running outside the door. Notice how he never said he was a infamous movie director with presumably millions in Bank of America. He wanted the treatment of just a suspicious black guy at the bank. I am black too and see straight through his story. Jussie Smollett 2.0 trying to bring awareness to issues in banking.
@@dacuna1010 Lol… he was trying to get a over reaction from the bank.

They never bring that false reporting which is a crime but not to the black mans advantage I'd want everything from bank people being fired immediately and arrested for making a false police report
Bank of America has a long sad history of Fu#ki g up where Black people are concerned! He should end his acct. there and invest his money elsewhere. There are many up and coming Black managed banks and credit unions who can use his services. Don't give that giant piece of doodo not one more red penny!

@@larrymack2879 they did nothing wrong. They were not there to see him hand the note. They were courteous and that was the right procedure they did. I would not have changed nothing except removed the handcuffs a little sooner rather than him having to ask
He handled this situation EXTREMELY WELL!!!! The bank reported him as a robber. The bank is at fault. Needless to say, I wouldn't be a banker with them any longer!
Everyone in this video handled it well and maturely, how it should be. Mix ups happen and it can be resolved peacefully. Cops werent escalating mindlessly trying to cover up someone elses mess, they acknowledged it was a mistake and took their share of the responsibility. He approached this calmly and clearly explained his POV, he was reasonable with his demands and wasnt threatening to anyone. Its a weird situation, some people are way too quick to just blame racism on the teller part or whatever.. but we wouldnt know either way. Teller could just as well made a honest mistake by misreading the situation, but that couldve got someone killed if any of the people involved were less understanding. Shits fucked.
He was completely justified but towards the bank not the cops the cops did their job the way they were supposed to they responded to a call the way they were supposed to control the situation It was a supposed bank robbery to their knowledge They have no clue who he is 99% of the world has no clue who directed any movies that are out If anybody is held responsible it should be the bank that's common sense

most likely not true. why black people think they are the only ones who get shit from cops and the banks is beyond me. many of the things that people say is racist happen to whites and asians and everybody else. somebody said he had to say that he was reaching in his pocket to the officer and that was a reality for black ppl. yes it is, and for white people and literally every single other person engaging with cops. they don't want to get shot by anyone, not just a black person
As a former teller, it's common for people taking large deposits to write the requests down. Some will write it down just to withdraw $40. Some have their whole transaction request written down. It's not uncommon. She totally overreacted and could've caused him to lose his life. All the officers know upon arrival is that there is a robbery attempt in place. They could've assumed a gun was present and acted accordingly.
Most likely was a silent alarm. I used to work in a bank and it's super low key to press. So easy that I accidentally hit it twice with my leg while stretching and cops had to come out and clear the building lol
@@GenerationalDisappointment silent alarm or not. The teller and the Manager need to both, be fired. The manager should have looked at the I.D an the account he’s trying to withdraw from. None of that was done, an she had the nerve to say good job officer on the way out. Smfh
There was a hint of rich entitlement to his talk and the way he thinks it’s normal to not talk at all to a bank worker while withdrawing a large amount of cash there are so many better options for withdrawing cash if he’s scared than literally making it look like he’s robbing the bank. Amazing he’s made it so far with that much stupidity.
@@AHomelessDorito you’re literally looking for shit to blame him with bro lol like how far do you white fucks have to go? How much hate do you have in your heart that you literally have to LOOK for shit to attack him with? “A hint of rich entitlement” what the fuck is this bro.
@@AHomelessDorito that's not entitled it's literally their job to read his note and then go about business as usual. so many people pass notes for so many reasons: hearing problems, nervous, trying to be discreet, making a specific request, etc. the lady was just ignorant and bad at her job
Maybe, it happened to Blacc Youngsta before he a household name. I was watching the evening news like who is this dude and why does he have $250k to just withdraw like that
So true, My daughter got into a fight at Kroger. The white girl hit her in the face with some keys. All the white people started jumping in. So I jumped in. The cops was called on us saying we had a gun. They came with guns on us. Three or 4 cops threw me on the car. What an embarrassment. My grandkids was in the car crying. The police camera was edit. Plus they said that the officer that pulled the first gun, that was his last day working at that station. What a coverup.
This man directed a film about an unarmed Oscar grant, being handcuffed and shot by the police and now he’s being wrongfully arrested for “bank robbery”. He kept his cool, praise God!
Praise God for what he complied The cops did exactly what they were supposed to do this is the bank's fault not the police They don't know who he is they can't see through his mask And even if they could they probably still don't know who he is Because everybody knows the name of the director of a f****** movie get real
I’m pleased Mr Coogler asked to be taken out of handcuffs before any conversation continued. By then officers already knew it was mistake and should have released him immediately. There is no need to attempt to control the situation with an innocent man.
@@mook12151 That may be true, but that is not on the police here. That is on the person who called and claimed it was a robbery. The police would have treated anyone they got that call on the same.

Saying that, there should have been no conversation while he was in cuffs. He should have been immediately released upon learning it was a mistake.

I was a bank teller years ago and remember a customer giving me a note with bill instructions for a large withdrawal. Once his ID and bank account was verified, I don’t understand why this teller thought he was robbing the bank. I understand he did not want to announce to the whole bank how much money he was withdrawing. The cop questioning that he should have pulled someone outside is ridiculous. The bank employees were totally in the wrong and Ryan did nothing wrong.
She didn't think he was robbing a bank. She is a teller and deals with notes all day everyday and it's a big city. She probably didn't like how he was talking to her and she took the opportunity to do what she did.

Well Bank of America loves to hold on to people's money. So if you look at it from their perspective, we are all bank robbers and we've all done this many times. Damn customers; I mean criminals.
The teller should be sued or held accountable. He/she put Ryan's life in danger or put him in a stressful and traumatic situation when it wasn't necessary at all just because he/she was judgemental and can't figure out what's right and what's wrong.

Unfortunately, the way a person reacts when a gun is pulled on them has nothing to do with intelligence. The worst thing is an innocent man has to de-escalate everyone to avoid being killed. Police look for every reason to shoot while the accused has to walk a razor-thin line to avoid it.
i think he was fighting the tears. he certainly is a celebrity, other brothers that are less successful than him have it harder in this situation. he knows that. all black officer knew that too. they knew it is all fucked up. they know they cant act differently, it's their SOP. all because a racist black teller acted stupidly as racist people often do.
So what would have been better to cuss out the cops resist them and escalate something the cops are more then ready to escalate??? Maybe he gets killed maybe he gets beaten is that what should have happened I agree never should have happened but it will be your own people being racist against you mad cause he taking 12000 out his account
There is so much wrong here, including the fact that Ryan Coogler had to ask these cops why he was still in handcuffs even after these cops knew he was innocent.
Did you see the body camera footage. He never said he was a famous director with millions in the bank. He wanted to be treated bad. All staged… in the real world famous people always say “ do you know who I am “. This is so much BS and he is going to be exposed. If I think it was staged the police and Bank of America is not buying it either. It’s like when the cops ask you if you killed you wife and the first thing you say is “ I need to speak to my attorney “. An innocent person would go crazy at the thought of you suggesting you killed the person you love. The ask you to see your reaction. With to his guy, because he never brought up his status means he didn’t want them to know. Detectives are not stupid. They saw where he asked for someone to take of his sunglasses outside, but wore them inside a bank to withdraw cash…. Please. Nobody is believing him just like Jussie Smollett… just wait for it.
@@ultraviolet9169 It will never happen to me because I am not going into a bank wearing sunglasses, handwritten notes, not answering questions, and having a car running outside the door.

Sunglasses, handwritten note, car running outside the door. You would have to be stupid not to see he staged it. The cops ain’t buying it for sure as well as Bank of America. They going to keep on this until he is exposed. You know you are wrong when blacks called the cops on you. Thank god the teller and manager were not white.
I love how cops ALWAYS feel the need to explain things into the dirt. It's like, just let the guy vent and stfu. Quit trying to justify justify justify. Let the guy be mad - it's understandable.
Yeah then when they are RIGHTLY upset they try to turn it around on you like “calm down” and “the way you are acting makes it look like you did something” as if he/we don’t have a right to feel some type of way for the BS that’s happening …uggh
Calm down , you are so emotionally invested . The guy was ranting and upset but it doesn’t need to get that far . He can sue the bank and get with his day .. if I was accused like this I would just be happy to get ready to sue 🤷🏻♀️
Cops do the explaining thing because they don't believe they did anything wrong in the slightest, nor do they care about the people they effect. Note how once they KNEW he wasn't wrong, they still had him in handcuffs trying to explain things to him, and it was Ryan Coogler who had to initiate the topic of them taking the handcuffs off of him. This wasn't a misstep on the officers part, it was purposeful. They would've kept him in handcuffs as long as possible. White supremacist police are scum, which means ALL cops are scum.

@@garyny4073 there’s no excuse, the bank teller was scared of a black man wearing warm clothes during the winter and a face mask following a World pandemic and even received all the proper information including his bank card and identification card. The teller must have some serious anxiety or something to call the cops and say someone’s trying to what? Calmly rob them with their proper paperwork? If she’s afraid of black people she probably shouldn’t work in Atlanta or any demographic area with many black people, she must first overcome her fear based on sight alone, that’s a personal problem and no one is at fault but the teller, and I agree with you, the officers did their jobs properly given the information from their call if you ask me.
Just tell us exactly how the wise Mr Filley would have handled the situation. Enlighten us on what the policy for responding to a bank robbery should be?
@@jessicalafleur4115 well first there should actually be you know, a robbery. and not some incompetent teller claiming there is when there clearly isnt. you know. common sense and having more than 27 iq goes a long way. so i can see where your confusion lies.
They were called to a bank robbery in progress, they were about as gentle as you will ever see in that situation. They absolutely were, usually with that kind of call, its alot of screaming and orders and guns drawn and a knee in the suspects back and we apologize later if we have to, it's about safety for everyone including the suspect. I hear quite often, people telling me how LEOs give them anxiety and 90% of the time its because they have been arrested before. I get it, I do but the best way to not have stressful contact with law enforcement is to not break the law. In this case they employee who called this in needed to be fired. This could of went bad it just takes adrenaline and anxiety and the suspect reaching for something to ruin lives.
Exactly, it's the banks responsibility to decide how to handle large transactions not the customers. If they wanted him to come into a private office they should have asked him to.
He sounded reasonable and cooperative. Also he put his bank card into the reader for the teller, entered his pin# and showed i.d. So this is the bank's mistake. If a person asks to withdraw money from their account and the money is there in the account then......
This is not a BANK MISTAKE, this is bank racism culture. "Banking while black". It happened always to black people, is that a mistake? Or a systemic culture.
When that officer came up and started touching him and asking about his ID ... And he just stopped talking, hung his head and closed his eyes. That hurt.
big chance he doesn’t have all of his money there, probably like $500k at most, also it’s typical to call banks ahead of time when you want to request larger amounts of money, they don’t keep much there.
When they say calm down, it's a tactic to have another reason to do something. That officer who is speaking and trying to defend the situation is only digging himself in a hole.

This was Totally responsible and just a huge misunderstanding but nothing Purposly done . Guy with mask and note at a bank 99.99999999 PERCENT of times means a Bank robbery.
As someone who has been a banking manager enough to know what fraud actually looks like- he gave her all the information she asked for. If she had any real concerns or questions- she should have went to her manager who then should have brought him into the office for clarification on any concern they had. It blows my mind this was escalated to calling the police. If anything- they should have gotten their local security team involved for further advice. Lots of ignored procedures it seems.
Maybe he should've filled out the withdrawl slip properly instead of writing a note on the back, telling her to be discreet. And I'm pretty sure that banking protocol doesn't call for going to your manager if you think your place of employment is being robbed. "Somebody fucked up!" Yeah, the idiot that doesn't know how to fill out a withdrawl slip.
@@robdalton4528 he's withdrawing cash. He wanted to be discreet cause you can and will get robbed in Atlanta. 10k in cash someone will over hear. And I've had plenty of clients come in the bank and hand me notes. We never require them to fill out deposit slips. Bank of America is a known in the industry of not being a pleasant place to bank at. You could double my salary and I wouldn't work for them. I can tell you've never worked at a bank, dude did everything correct. No one is robbing a bank giving their ID and debit card.
@@civilwarwasaninsidejob7405 Lol. A bank that doesn't require someone to fill out a withdrawl slip, especially when banks require one to be filled out to properly track money? Sounds like the bank you work for doesn't handle things in a proper, professional manner.
This man handled this very well. I’ve been in this type of situation before. The cops are just doing their job and responding to the call. The bank is at fault and should be held accountable.
If he was cooperating there was no need to act like the call had all the details, cops aren't stupid. They sure do like to act like they are when they make mistakes. Like how the cop told him to "calm down" after having his rights trampled.
@@jonjeskie5234 The teller represents the bank, and therefore represents the bank's principle of ethics. If a company doesn't take responsibility for their employees actions that's exactly how they intend to be represented to the public.
Sounds good but all banks are the same and they are all owned by the same type of people. Maybe he may "feel" a lil better if he did that but same thing could happen even at another bank.
WHY would he have to speak to someone in the bank BEFORE he makes a withdrawal, if he's showing the proper ID and verification? We ALL know why! This pisses me the hell off! Sick of this!
This is race baiting. Jussie Smollet move. If you take out large amount of money from the bank you have to speak to the bank manager ahead of time. That’s standard procedure
@@Dirty_730 No it's not. Many people give notes to do this - not everyone talks to a bank manager but because you may not you assume that is the case. Giving a note is just as effective especially when doing multiple processes at the teller. They in fact appreciate it since it basically lists everything out and you don't have to say shit. Efficient and secure as well, so no, it's not a Jussie at all and he was an idiot who got what he deserved. One more thing - it's more incompetence than race.
All of the bank employees involved with getting the police, need to not only be fired, but also criminally charged. This is how you fight white supremacists.
I already admired Coogler as an artist, but I admire him so much as a man after viewing this. What an incredible face of patience and clarity in a moment of undue stress.
When a bank teller counts my $100, I’m already nervous. Can’t imagine $12,000 being counted in front of everyone. The bank owes him more than an apology. If you listen to the 911 call, the teller said she didn’t even check his ID to see if it matches the person.
I've literally worked at bank of America for more than 5yrs. This was definitely profiling. Their policies doesn't warrent calling officers unless a crime is being committed. Not to mention this was definitely O.K.'d by the management there because the manager would have to be filled in immediately and Bank of America's corporate security called after the police were called. So the manager had every chance to get the details and descalate the situation Before & After the officers arrived. The policies due state if you are suspicious of a transaction you have all right to call the fraud team and have them review the account but never. So this was wrong in so many level on the banks side. Teller definitely should be fired and law suit against BOA
@@jeffreyaccilien9270 if a teller and and their manager doubt someone’s identity, they have a duty to deny a suspicious transaction to protect the bank and to protect the account holder. Given you don’t understand this basic responsibility perhaps explains your statement of authority (a horrible argument on its own) being in the past tense.
Once they realized who he was they were busy trying to explain/justify why they pulled guns on him. Also Ryan is a very humble, low-key person. Obviously he didn't want this info to go public or he would have made it known back in January when it happened. Now he has to relive it all over again. He wrote Fruitvale Station because he was deeply affected by the Oscar Grant killing so to have this interaction with the police happen, must have been even more traumatic for him.
They were justified to pull guns you don’t go to a possible bank robbery or robbery period unarmed, they don’t know if the person has a gun or not they have to react with the little information they are given
I actually have no issue with detaining at gunpoint for a call in of a bank robbery. That seems reasonable to me to assume a bank robber may be armed and once safely detained the details can be sorted without risk. This is why responding to direct orders in this situation is good, Ryan listened and let them detain him calmly and THEN worked on what was going on. I think the only failure here is the cops should have removed his cuffs FAR faster it was very clear this was a misunderstanding early on into this detainment and the BANK is a major WTF failure. I cannot find/fathom a reason the bank should have called the police.

True
What other choice did he have?
do business at the branch that knows you. I learned that lesson real fast. Im sure on top of this... the teller was asking him 20 minutes of redundant questions.. ATMs are limited to cash withdrawals (for obvious reasons) but you dont have to deal with annoying tellers who gives you the 3rd degree even when you are depositing cash.
He actually has a speech impediment where he stutters over his words a lot. If you ever watch his interviews, he stutters alot. But yeah you’re right, he handled this very well somehow.

@@griffisjm How is slipping a note to a teller a concern when he is putting in his pin and drawing money from his own bank account? That’s completely ridiculous. I’m sure he never said I’m trying to rob the bank, give me all the funds? Ppl watch too many movies and let their imaginations take them away too far instead of dealing with what’s being proposed in front of them. It’s common sense. The guy entered his bank info. What else was he supposed to do? I agree the problem is with the teller. And though the cops were very respectful of him, they are still cops that he doesn’t know who have guns. And with everything that has happened to many innocent black men making so called suspicious movements and getting killed for it, he’s is rightfully anxious. I work alongside cops everyday, I see the way they handle ppl under arrest. It can be very intimidating. And he’s just one person. I saw at least 4 cops in that clip. It takes just one of them being a jackass claiming he sees something that is black and looks like a gun, for them all to react too quickly and hurt someone. And this poor guy is just trying to hold it together after being surrounded by authorities. That’s what I see.
I do. that's why you remain calm cause they don't have shit on you.
@@gilbertoarellano8711 Yea, but did you see the video with the guy from the military who was sprayed in the face with mace. The guy was calm. He was only asking what he did wrong. And they just sprayed him like it was nothing. You can remain calm, do nothing and still get hurt. And all these ppl have one thing in common, the color of their skin, because apparently being black in America is seen as a threat. Even little black children are a threat. Sad 😞 But on the flip side, I see plenty videos of white ppl stealing cop cars, beating cops and even drawing guns on them, but they definitely lived to see another day, while unarmed black ppl get hurt in situations like these where they have done nothing wrong. It really pains me to see him in this video because I see him trying to hold it together, but he looks scared as hell. So being calm may help, but it doesn’t always work if the others around you have biases and perceive you as a threat anyway. 🤷🏽♀️
@@griffisjm It makes sense for him to slip a note, because you don’t just say loudly to the person working the counter “Hi, I’d like to withdraw $12,000”. Anybody with the wrong intentions could try hurt him or worse. Even if nobody did, you don’t want everybody staring at you for taking out that much cash. You never want to draw attention to yourself when withdrawing that amount of money, so it’s the bank teller’s fault.
Also, he’s withdrawing out of his own account, and he had his ID. The bank teller just thought that he was stealing because of a note he slipped telling them to not make a scene out of it? Doesn’t make sense to me.
As someone who works as a bank teller, I can tell you right now that the person who handled his transaction did it wrong. So long as the information you get that he gives you (id, bank card, ect) is the same as its profile, it doesn't matter how they ask for the money.
Thank you! That teller did not do her job correctly. Idk if she had a lapse in judgement or what but she needs to be held accountable for this. Because now the police department will likely be sued. But Bank of America is at fault.

He is speaking to a qualified officer, who is trying his hardest to keep everything calm and collected. I am so glad that Ryan made it home safely. I’m also very happy that he was communicating with an experienced officer who was communicating with him directly and sincerely.
Qualified officers my ass
The officer lost me when he started talking about "have you ever tried talking to them beforehand" in reference to the idea that he should call ahead so he won't get profiled while depositing cheques. That's some pro-racism apologetics right there. Then he started saying "calm down" when the man was 100% calm.

Everyone in this video handled it well and maturely, how it should be. Mix ups happen and it can be resolved peacefully. Cops werent escalating mindlessly trying to cover up someone elses mess, they acknowledged it was a mistake and took their share of the responsibility. He approached this calmly and clearly explained his POV, he was reasonable with his demands and wasnt threatening to anyone.
Its a weird situation, some people are way too quick to just blame racism on the teller part or whatever.. but we wouldnt know either way. Teller could just as well made a honest mistake by misreading the situation, but that couldve got someone killed if any of the people involved were less understanding. Shits fucked.

The lady who called the cops is black
most likely not true. why black people think they are the only ones who get shit from cops and the banks is beyond me. many of the things that people say is racist happen to whites and asians and everybody else. somebody said he had to say that he was reaching in his pocket to the officer and that was a reality for black ppl. yes it is, and for white people and literally every single other person engaging with cops. they don't want to get shot by anyone, not just a black person
@1x0x the first reply to this comment is literally talking about it. fake woke ass
As a former teller, it's common for people taking large deposits to write the requests down.
Some will write it down just to withdraw $40. Some have their whole transaction request written down. It's not uncommon. She totally overreacted and could've caused him to lose his life. All the officers know upon arrival is that there is a robbery attempt in place. They could've assumed a gun was present and acted accordingly.
The teller needs to be fired and banned from ever being able to work in any Financial institution.
They pulled their guns out before confronting him, it definitely could be dangerous
But didn’t he give I.d. Seems goofy to me. No excuse for the teller.
Could have been disastrous. Racially the misunderstanding it could have caused . Smdh
Exactly. Thats how it was when I worked at the bank.
The fact that he put his card and pin. Then even gave I.D and they still called the cops on him. They all need to be fired and he should sue.
First thing to do, is take all your money out and never bank there again.... and suggest to everybody you know to do the same.
Most likely was a silent alarm. I used to work in a bank and it's super low key to press. So easy that I accidentally hit it twice with my leg while stretching and cops had to come out and clear the building lol
@@GenerationalDisappointment silent alarm or not. The teller and the Manager need to both, be fired. The manager should have looked at the I.D an the account he’s trying to withdraw from. None of that was done, an she had the nerve to say good job officer on the way out. Smfh

So true, My daughter got into a fight at Kroger. The white girl hit her in the face with some keys. All the white people started jumping in. So I jumped in. The cops was called on us saying we had a gun. They came with guns on us. Three or 4 cops threw me on the car. What an embarrassment. My grandkids was in the car crying. The police camera was edit.

@@mook12151 That may be true, but that is not on the police here. That is on the person who called and claimed it was a robbery. The police would have treated anyone they got that call on the same.

i think he was fighting the tears. he certainly is a celebrity, other brothers that are less successful than him have it harder in this situation. he knows that. all black officer knew that too. they knew it is all fucked up. they know they cant act differently, it's their SOP. all because a racist black teller acted stupidly as racist people often do.

I hate how cops always try to control your reaction, like they want you to consign why they are doing what they are doing.
There is so much wrong here, including the fact that Ryan Coogler had to ask these cops why he was still in handcuffs even after these cops knew he was innocent.
Did you see the body camera footage. He never said he was a famous director with millions in the bank. He wanted to be treated bad. All staged… in the real world famous people always say “ do you know who I am “. This is so much BS and he is going to be exposed. If I think it was staged the police and Bank of America is not buying it either. It’s like when the cops ask you if you killed you wife and the first thing you say is “ I need to speak to my attorney “. An innocent person would go crazy at the thought of you suggesting you killed the person you love. The ask you to see your reaction. With to his guy, because he never brought up his status means he didn’t want them to know. Detectives are not stupid.

Yeah then when they are RIGHTLY upset they try to turn it around on you like “calm down” and “the way you are acting makes it look like you did something” as if he/we don’t have a right to feel some type of way for the BS that’s happening …uggh
Calm down , you are so emotionally invested . The guy was ranting and upset but it doesn’t need to get that far . He can sue the bank and get with his day .. if I was accused like this I would just be happy to get ready to sue 🤷🏻♀️
Cops do the explaining thing because they don't believe they did anything wrong in the slightest, nor do they care about the people they effect. Note how once they KNEW he wasn't wrong, they still had him in handcuffs trying to explain things to him, and it was Ryan Coogler who had to initiate the topic of them taking the handcuffs off of him. This wasn't a misstep on the officers part, it was purposeful. They would've kept him in handcuffs as long as possible. White supremacist police are scum, which means ALL cops are scum.
This is a man doing everything he can just to keep composed. Kudos to him, but he should never have had to deal with it to begin with.
It's all because of racism
@@josephbridges9891 no it's because he had a note which is strange in a bank 🏦, sunglasses , a hat and a mask 😷 on ! A perfect storm of 💩yes but not racial ! Note black cops just doing their jobs .
@@garyny4073 there’s no excuse, the bank teller was scared of a black man wearing warm clothes during the winter and a face mask following a World pandemic and even received all the proper information including his bank card and identification card. The teller must have some serious anxiety or something to call the cops and say someone’s trying to what? Calmly rob them with their proper paperwork? If she’s afraid of black people she probably shouldn’t work in Atlanta or any demographic area with many black people, she must first overcome her fear based on sight alone, that’s a personal problem and no one is at fault but the teller, and I agree with you, the officers did their jobs properly given the information from their call if you ask me.
Just tell us exactly how the wise Mr Filley would have handled the situation. Enlighten us on what the policy for responding to a bank robbery should be?
@@jessicalafleur4115 well first there should actually be you know, a robbery. and not some incompetent teller claiming there is when there clearly isnt. you know. common sense and having more than 27 iq goes a long way. so i can see where your confusion lies.
You know the system is fucked up when I get anxiety every time an officer says "calm down".
They were called to a bank robbery in progress, they were about as gentle as you will ever see in that situation. They absolutely were, usually with that kind of call, its alot of screaming and orders and guns drawn and a knee in the suspects back and we apologize later if we have to, it's about safety for everyone including the suspect. I hear quite often, people telling me how LEOs give them anxiety and 90% of the time its because they have been arrested before. I get it, I do but the best way to not have stressful contact with law enforcement is to not break the law. In this case they employee who called this in needed to be fired. This could of went bad it just takes adrenaline and anxiety and the suspect reaching for something to ruin lives.
He shouldn’t have to speak to a manager ahead of time. He had ID, his bank card, and the available funds. That’s all he needed.
@@bl757 that’s not what he’s said.
Agreed, It’s his money!!!!
Agreed!
Exactly, it's the banks responsibility to decide how to handle large transactions not the customers. If they wanted him to come into a private office they should have asked him to.
@@vduval22 but it is what he said though
He sounded reasonable and cooperative. Also he put his bank card into the reader for the teller, entered his pin# and showed i.d. So this is the bank's mistake. If a person asks to withdraw money from their account and the money is there in the account then......
EXACTLY! She needs to be checked out. Absolutely ridiculous!
This is not a BANK MISTAKE, this is bank racism culture. "Banking while black". It happened always to black people, is that a mistake? Or a systemic culture.
@@saintjulien6126 most people don’t write bank tellers notes, that includes black people. Nice try, though.
naw, that's not how it went... note was passed FIRST... that set off the alarms.. the ID and card stuff was done after to buy time until cops arrived
@@dickgozenya1542 You do not know rich people. And you definitely do not know how rich people bank. This is obvious!
When that officer came up and started touching him and asking about his ID ... And he just stopped talking, hung his head and closed his eyes. That hurt.
Yeah that officer needed to just let the one talking to him handle it bc they were chillin
I think I will take my money out of Bank of America.
Imagine seeing a bank account with millions of dollars and thinking he was attempting a robbery
Fr like
Stupid ass cops… I swear they npcs😂
From what I know she didn’t even check the account she just made assumptions
big chance he doesn’t have all of his money there, probably like $500k at most, also it’s typical to call banks ahead of time when you want to request larger amounts of money, they don’t keep much there.
Only an idiot would keep more than 250k in a single account
When they say calm down, it's a tactic to have another reason to do something. That officer who is speaking and trying to defend the situation is only digging himself in a hole.
At that stage of things I think they realized whom he was and no aggression would have been implemented. That's why they were so laid back with him.
A person has a right to raise their voice in anger. Why wouldn’t a policeman expect someone to be angry?
Traumatizing man…he probably thought he was going to die. Sad.
Why would he think he would die?
@@Jimmy-hw6hq do you live under a rock or are you just tryna be funny??!
@@dukez5568 I’m not trying to be funny or live under a rock. Where’d you get that assumption?
@@Jimmy-hw6hq Generally speaking, your concerns of mortality are dramatically increased by having several guns drawn on you. Historically speaking, those situations go even worse for people of color. Doesn't seem like a very challenging concept.
@@Jimmy-hw6hq black guy wearing mask and hoodie in a bank got surrounded by cops with there guns drawn, in USA, yeah, that sounds like he's about to get shot
His calm demeanor throughout this entire saga was legendary. Best way to handle a shitty situation like this
And despite how extremely well he handled it he STILL had the officers tell him to calm down, ha. What a total joke on the officers part, seriously.
@@CG-wr4no dude, straight up. Even if someone's not aggressive, they'll try their best to make it seem that way. Justice system fkn sucks ass
This is America: get arrested for trying to withdraw money from your own account and someone assuming you didn't earn that money. 😡
Only in America
Once you’re black
Ur dum. If withdrawing over 10k it gets flagged. Normally you call ahead a arrange for a manager. But some ppl are dum..
@@halcyon6098 just say you're broke and go
@@halcyon6098 lies...you do not have to call ahead. It's like this was just messed up.
This was an irresponsible call to police that could have resulted in Coogler's loss of life.
Yeah I agree, the officers were only doing their job because they wouldn't come in the bank unless called by someone from the bank.

@@lornakim5706 please be quiet you make no sense
As someone who has been a banking manager enough to know what fraud actually looks like- he gave her all the information she asked for. If she had any real concerns or questions- she should have went to her manager who then should have brought him into the office for clarification on any concern they had. It blows my mind this was escalated to calling the police. If anything- they should have gotten their local security team involved for further advice. Lots of ignored procedures it seems.
@K haha I’m young enough all of this was set up in high school.. just never bothered to change it
@K his profile and name is nothing offense? Does K stand for Karen or what?
Maybe he should've filled out the withdrawl slip properly instead of writing a note on the back, telling her to be discreet.
And I'm pretty sure that banking protocol doesn't call for going to your manager if you think your place of employment is being robbed.
"Somebody fucked up!"
Yeah, the idiot that doesn't know how to fill out a withdrawl slip.
@@robdalton4528 he's withdrawing cash. He wanted to be discreet cause you can and will get robbed in Atlanta. 10k in cash someone will over hear. And I've had plenty of clients come in the bank and hand me notes. We never require them to fill out deposit slips. Bank of America is a known in the industry of not being a pleasant place to bank at. You could double my salary and I wouldn't work for them. I can tell you've never worked at a bank, dude did everything correct. No one is robbing a bank giving their ID and debit card.
@@civilwarwasaninsidejob7405 Lol. A bank that doesn't require someone to fill out a withdrawl slip, especially when banks require one to be filled out to properly track money? Sounds like the bank you work for doesn't handle things in a proper, professional manner.
black panther 2 boutta go crazy
The fact HE had to ask to be removed from handcuffs is INSANE
It's not that serious. They were investigating the situation.
@@crunkin1t590 it was over at that time, thats why they took them off once he asked.
@@crunkin1t590 tell me your a boot lickers without saying your a boot licker
Absolutely! 💔
Why is it insane? He asked to be removed… most white people demand to be released
This man handled this very well. I’ve been in this type of situation before. The cops are just doing their job and responding to the call. The bank is at fault and should be held accountable.
Bank teller*
Same, I've had guns drawn on me by the police over some bs...like for real for real.
If he was cooperating there was no need to act like the call had all the details, cops aren't stupid. They sure do like to act like they are when they make mistakes.
Like how the cop told him to "calm down" after having his rights trampled.
F u, your ableist behaviour and those damn blue clown dressed pigs, dude.
@@jonjeskie5234 The teller represents the bank, and therefore represents the bank's principle of ethics. If a company doesn't take responsibility for their employees actions that's exactly how they intend to be represented to the public.
He should close is account and go some where else. That would hurt the bank the most. Sucks bro.
Please take your money out that the bank. Bank is full of shit and police is full of shit to they alway want the black to understand.
What good will that do? He is still black!
Facts facts facts
Sounds good but all banks are the same and they are all owned by the same type of people. Maybe he may "feel" a lil better if he did that but same thing could happen even at another bank.
@@BridgetFisher lmaoo go learn aome shit about life lol please!
Cop: “ do you understand that we didn’t just show up here and draw guns on you”
Sir… that is exactly what you did
you know what he meant dont argue like a child
@@WokenRetard i mean there was a reason why they showed up but they literally showed up with their guns drawn 💀💀
@@matthayes8026 its a suspected bank robbery 😂 how do you want them to respond bro
They thought it was a robbery! Obviously they would have their guns out. The guy should sue the bank teller and bank.
WHY would he have to speak to someone in the bank BEFORE he makes a withdrawal, if he's showing the proper ID and verification? We ALL know why! This pisses me the hell off! Sick of this!
This is race baiting. Jussie Smollet move. If you take out large amount of money from the bank you have to speak to the bank manager ahead of time. That’s standard procedure
@@Dirty_730 No it's not. Many people give notes to do this - not everyone talks to a bank manager but because you may not you assume that is the case. Giving a note is just as effective especially when doing multiple processes at the teller. They in fact appreciate it since it basically lists everything out and you don't have to say shit. Efficient and secure as well, so no, it's not a Jussie at all and he was an idiot who got what he deserved. One more thing - it's more incompetence than race.
That part
@@nobodyknowsforsure NOT TRUE!
Fire the teller!!!! It's a good learning lesson for her. She'll be ok later in life if you do....if you don't, history can repeat itself.
All of the bank employees involved with getting the police, need to not only be fired, but also criminally charged. This is how you fight white supremacists.
@@shinbakihanma2749 You need to be fired from your job too. That's how you fight stupidity.

That sounds about White.
@@beautifulqueen2579 not sure how exactly when it was the black cop who told him to calm down.
Damn dude, imagine getting arrested for withdrawing your own money
I already admired Coogler as an artist, but I admire him so much as a man after viewing this. What an incredible face of patience and clarity in a moment of undue stress.
When a bank teller counts my $100, I’m already nervous. Can’t imagine $12,000 being counted in front of everyone. The bank owes him more than an apology. If you listen to the 911 call, the teller said she didn’t even check his ID to see if it matches the person.
I was in the middle of the hood and went to an ATM, i meant to take our 50 bucks but hit 500 and it felt like and eternity as it was counting it out.
@@TheHolypoopstick don’t atms ask to confirm the amount? At least the ones I go to do.

@@TheHolypoopstick with some things yea but not with my money lol
@@jameslove8507 I learned my lesson, im super careful about what I type in now.
I've literally worked at bank of America for more than 5yrs. This was definitely profiling. Their policies doesn't warrent calling officers unless a crime is being committed. Not to mention this was definitely O.K.'d by the management there because the manager would have to be filled in immediately and Bank of America's corporate security called after the police were called. So the manager had every chance to get the details and descalate the situation Before & After the officers arrived. The policies due state if you are suspicious of a transaction you have all right to call the fraud team and have them review the account but never. So this was wrong in so many level on the banks side. Teller definitely should be fired and law suit against BOA
Yeah but as an American he has the right to call the police. The guy clearly did this on purpose to make a big stink.
@@daisukegori2112 not sure what u mean
Wrong!
@@freethinker5226 enlighten us
@@jeffreyaccilien9270 if a teller and and their manager doubt someone’s identity, they have a duty to deny a suspicious transaction to protect the bank and to protect the account holder. Given you don’t understand this basic responsibility perhaps explains your statement of authority (a horrible argument on its own) being in the past tense.
I find it very ironic that this happened at bank of "America" smh
Once they realized who he was they were busy trying to explain/justify why they pulled guns on him. Also Ryan is a very humble, low-key person. Obviously he didn't want this info to go public or he would have made it known back in January when it happened. Now he has to relive it all over again. He wrote Fruitvale Station because he was deeply affected by the Oscar Grant killing so to have this interaction with the police happen, must have been even more traumatic for him.
I loved Fruitvale Station, you can tell this interaction affected him.
They were justified to pull guns you don’t go to a possible bank robbery or robbery period unarmed, they don’t know if the person has a gun or not they have to react with the little information they are given
I actually have no issue with detaining at gunpoint for a call in of a bank robbery. That seems reasonable to me to assume a bank robber may be armed and once safely detained the details can be sorted without risk. This is why responding to direct orders in this situation is good, Ryan listened and let them detain him calmly and THEN worked on what was going on.
I think the only failure here is the cops should have removed his cuffs FAR faster it was very clear this was a misunderstanding early on into this detainment and the BANK is a major WTF failure. I cannot find/fathom a reason the bank should have called the police.
@@RandomGamesProductions 🙄🤨😤 really, they pulled the guns after she had seen his ID, and he had put his p.i.n. in! This was handled poorly, period!🤔
@@johnpeebles3229 blame the teller. But the cops didn't do anything wrong. They simply responded to a bank robbery call
