DELTONA, Fla. Two days after a Black jogger was detained by San Antonio police who were looking for a family violence suspect, a similar situation played out in Deltona, Florida where another Black jogger was detained by deputies.
The deputy puts Griffins phone on the ground, with Griffins permission, and informs Griffin that his sergeant said Griffin needs to be detained.
For Ometu, however, the situation escalated after he was handcuffed by San Antonio police.
We have invited Mr. Ometu to start a dialogue on policing in San Antonio, and that invitation will remain open, McManus said.
Yes, the officer has authority, but in the end, you have control, Griffin told Click Orlando.
