Two Los Angeles Police Department officers just caused an international incident by making a wrongful arrestin France.

It happened in Marseille, where LAPD Chief Michel Moore and Assistant Chief Robert Marino were walking the streets after dinner with their wives, along with two LAPD officers as security detail.

On Nov. 17 around 11 p.m. local time, Moore, Marino, their wives, the security detail, and members of the French National police left a restaurant, according to police. A man walking down the street with a group bumped into Marinos wife, who then accused him of stealing her cellphone.

The security team chased after the man and arrested him, but they and local authorities quickly realized the man hadnt taken a thing from the commanders wife, according to French police. And now, the department is opening an investigation into the wrongful stop, which took place more than 5,700 miles outside their jurisdiction, the Los Angeles Times reported.

The incident prompted an internal investigation, and the names of the LAPD officers involved are being withheld.

Moore and Marino were in France as part of a weeklong trip that had been organized so the top cops could meet with French law enforcement officials to discuss security plans for both the 2024 Summer Olympic Games in France and the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.

The arrest led the man who was detained and others who were walking with him to file a complaint with the French authorities. Those complaints were then reported to the U.S. consulate.

Moore called the debacle an unfortunate incident and apologized to local officials in Marseille for the stop, the Times reported.

Police officers dont generally have the authority to make arrests outside their own jurisdiction, let alone in other countries.

When law enforcement officers leave the country, they dont have any authority, even in other states, Brian Higgins, a professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, in New York, told VICE News. They were outside their jurisdiction, they dont have authority, and they were completely wrong.

It's easier to blame others for your own stupidity.

Probably typical Americans who think wherever they are, the world must comply with American rules and laws. SPEAK ENGLISH!!

What happened to the cellphone, though?
Did she forget it at the reastaurant?
Was it in her possession all the time but she did not know this becasue the bump had inadvertently activated her "Help! Thief!" protocols that overrode her standard HumanOS V1.24 logic subroutines?

it's literally a way of life for them. it's not like "oh I'm on the clock and this is what I have to do". their personalities are warped. the question becomes, does the profession turn them into this or does the profession attract people who already think like this
