[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Disturbing footage has emerged of a toddler cursing and swinging at cops while adults in the background hurled racist slurs in St. Paul, Minnesota, where crime has soared since the killing of George Floyd in 2020.
The footage was recorded last week while police were at a home to serve a search warrant in the hunt for a murder suspect, according to local news outlet Alpha News.
The 30-second clip shows the unnamed boy standing in the street in his underwear, barefoot, screaming: 'Shut up b***h!' at a black police officer and telling him to 'shut the f**k up!'
He then turned to the other cop and made fun of his 'ugly a** shoes', while other barefoot and barely-dressed kids stood around him.
Sounds like a verbally precocious little thing. The trailing daughters couldn’t have done that at that age.. More disturbing is the commentary in the background of the video from what sounds like an adult male who called the black police officer 'Oreo head'.
It's unclear where the child's parents were, or who the subject of the murder warrant was.
Crime in the Twin Cities soared in the wake of the 2020 unrest that followed George Floyd's killing by cops, so much so that St. Paul increased its police funding in 2021.
There are now 620 sworn officers in the city of 305,877. |
