That man, Tamon Leverette, later said that “he was stopped and frisked” by police “for no reason” other than “‘being black.'”
But police say their investigation showed it was actually Leverette who reported himself to 911. And it’s not the first time this has happened.
Police say Leverette called 911 on February 22 to report a Black teen in a tan hoodie. He was supposedly holding a handgun with a red bandana tied around it. That sometimes is used by gang members with the Bloods.
The caller identified himself as “Stacy Williams” and told a 911 operator that the teen was “too young to even have a pistol. He only looks 16, 17 years old.”
“Well, I’m at the bus stop, and there’s a colored young man and I can see a pistol right there,” he said on the 911 call, noting he was with his young sister at the time.
“I saw him fidgeting a pistol at the bus stop kind of scared me,” he explained.
The incident report notes, “it sounded like a male speaking in a higher pitch to simulate that of a female’s voice.”
