https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/NYPD-Officers-Seen-on-Video-Arresting-Candy-Vendor-at-Harlem-Subway-Station--564903932.html Police in Harlem pinned down and arrested a man they say was illegally selling candy on a subway platform, video shows. The four officers were seen in cellphone video holding the man down on the subway platform for the 4/5/6 trains on 125th Street and Lexington Avenue around 7 p.m. Tuesday. Police said they had asked Byron Shark for his ID several times, but he refused. When the officers tried to arrest him for peddling the subway sweets on the northbound platform, they said he resisted, forcing them to bring him to the ground which is when witnesses started recording the incident. Shark has been arrested eight times since 2013, police said, for charges including criminal possession of a weapon, assault and menacing with a weapon. The incident comes after two unlicensed churro vendors were removed from Brooklyn subway stations and issued summonses this week, in what critics are calling an over-policing of the subways. At a rally held Wednesday in Brooklyn, advocates accused the NYPD of too strictly enforcing laws that arent essential, and want police to focus their efforts elsewhere. The MTA bans the sale of food inside subway stations unless vendors have a permit. The NYPD says they have received numerous complaints of vendors without permits, prompting health concerns. However, the widely publicized recent incidents have raised questions regarding police strategies in the New York City subways. In October, the NYPD was also under fire after a video of officers pulling a gun on a 19-year-old fare evasion suspect was posted on social media. Another incident caught on camera in the same week showed an NYPD officer punching a 15-year-old in the face amid a scuffle between two groups of teens and police. --- Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7 ...

Video doesnt show him being tackled. Just shows him resisting arrest and several officers restraining him in the least forceful way possible.

Fair, Next. It illegal to sell food without a permit. That guy lucky he didn't get shot with all the resisting of arrest. Cops probably didn't want another viral murder video like the I cant breath guy.

Setting aside everything else, this level of enforcement is just wholly disproportionate to the actual harms being caused here.

Both of these are true in this situation. The guy broke the law and deserves to pay consequences for it (and for resisting) especially with his past criminal history. But at the same time, it does seem like the cops are enforcing these minor offenses too strongly. Fare evasion certainly isn't a crime worthy of having a gun pulled on you. --- "Someday I too will fly... and find you again!" https://imgur.com/5F2LW8F ... Copied to Clipboard!

That is where you are wrong. Because it is not "fair" to tackle a kid selling candy. A 26 year old "kid" with a history of violent criminal offenses who was actively resisting arrest. Unless you're talking some hypothetical kid that doesn't exist in the TC's story. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

And title of this thread is based off the tweet and social media response. Everyone was calling the person a teenager.

The man's age shouldn't matter he shouldn't have been thrown to the ground for selling candy. People reacted the same to the old lady getting arrested for selling churros.
