Thug Harasses Officer Doing His Job on Black Friday

Video has emerged of a man giving an officer trying to do his job, a hard time on “Black Friday” when refusing to show him the receipt of his purchase.

Police Officer Michael Manfredi of the South Strabane Police Department in Washington Co, was supposedly informed by store personnel that “Duane” or “Dwayne” needed to provide his receipt for proof of purchase of the items he had in his cart.

The man refuses to show his receipt and proceeds to get belligerent with the officer and staff as he walks out of the store.

Once outside, Officer Manfredi and the man continue to argue until the man finally produces a receipt but does not allow the officer to hold or examine it. Officer Manfredi then requests to take a photo of the receipt but is denied. The man all of the sudden throws his hands in the air and begins to shout: “My hands are up! Missouri, He’s trying to Mike Brown Me! Michael Manfredi is trying to Mike Brown me!” Eventually the officers allow the man to leave.

Of course this shows an incident that could have been avoided. Why didn’t the man simply produce his receipt? It is not uncommon to be asked to provide a proof of purchase especially on a day like Black Friday where there is chaos in a store and things are a bit difficult to keep track of. Many may argue that the officer had not right to stop the man as he was being racially profiled. You decide…
