“I was under no obligation to let them in my house, but I did so by wanting to collaborate with them and to show good faith,” he was quoted as saying.
It all started when police came to Chatel-Elie’s apartment one night, allegedly responding to what he said was a mysterious complaint about a loud party being held at his apartment, the report said. He said he asked multiple times and “lightly touched” one of the officers once to show them the way out, but this seemed to have agitated the police, who then decided to restrain him.
He was then escorted outside in handcuffs, suffering from a head injury and a busted lip. He said he was also left at the back of the police car for about an hour before the officers called an ambulance.Chatel-Elie said he believes the police acted that way because of his skin color, noting that that was not the first time he felt discriminated against by cops, but it was the first incident caught on video.
