I’m assuming the chief talked to cop and asked him.

I think you are mistaken in your assumption. Here is a friend of the officer narrating what he was told by the officer.

“He pulled up ahead of them. And then he got a call-in that there was a strong-arm robbery. And, they gave a description. And, he’s looking at them and they got something in their hands and it looks like it could be what, you know those cigars or whatever. So he goes in reverse back to them. Tries to get out of his car. They slam his door shut violently. I think he said Michael did. And, then he opened the car again. He tried to get out. He stands up.

I guess you didn't grab on to my implied point when I first corrected you. It was not in the best interest of justice to support the narrative that the police officer stopped them without cause.

By continuously pushing that claim, you are spreading false propaganda that is detrimental to the cause of justice.

Now I don't blame you at first because it has been reported that the chief did say something that appears to have added to the confusion, but once I told you the call went out on the radio, you should have informed everyone that you were no longer sure about this claim.

Again, why would someone break off a previous call unless they had heard a more important call? It makes no sense that a cop would break off a previous call just to go cruising for someone who was "Walking while black."

The facts fit far better with the explanation that the officer heard the call go out on the radio, and noted two fellows who matched the description. That makes far more sense than does the alternative.

Actually, what I assumed was that the police chief had talked to the policeman. I didn’t give as much credence to your comment as I did his comment that the police officer had not yet heard about the robbery.

I assumed he knew more about the case than everyone except those involved or those who had also talked to the officer. Now it appears that the police chief did not diligently inquire into the exact timing.

Below is a link to the report filed:

However, it appears that more information has helped the officer rather than hurt him.
