“I ain’t had guns drawn on me in a while, bro,” Ryan Coogler said to police in the video. “I just had guns drawn for taking money out my own account.”
Bodycam footage shows police handcuffing Coogler inside the bank, with a closeup of the back of his sweatshirt, which reads,"Fear of God."The police then brought him outside and put him in the back of the police car.
While Coogler explained to police what happened, he also told them he felt he was about to have a panic attack and was trying to manage his emotions. Coogler asked for all the police officers' names, and when a police officer suggested Coogler write it down, Coogler said he wasn't going to reach in his car for a pen or piece of paper.
