Three Black Teens Held At Gunpoint By L.A. County Sheriffs After The Boys Asked Them For Help Following An Altercation

Three Black teens were held at gunpoint after they asked police for help.

When three Black teens called for help from L.A. County Sheriffs after being attacked, the sheriffs ended up threatening them instead of finding the real suspect. According to TMZ, the incident took place in Santa Clarita, California. The entire ordeal was caught on camera and posted to Instagram by one of the teens’ mothers, Tammi Collins. In the video, police arrive with their guns pointed at the boys while the teens hold their hands up in the air. As the children are held at gunpoint, they try to explain that they are the victims in the matter.

“How will I help my son recover from this,” Collins wrote in the caption of the video post. “I wanted to share what happened to my son yesterday in SCV when he was with a couple of friends sitting at a bus stop headed home. He was attacked by a gentleman (homeless guy) who approached them and first asked them if they had any crack then tried to take their things. The guy became so aggressive that he took his shirt off, pulled out a knife, and whip them tried to stab them,” said Collins.

She continued: “His friends only had their skateboards to cover them from the knife and whip, so they held it out to keep distance from this guy. Several bystanders, including the restaurant manager of Buffalo Wild wings, called the police to get help for the boys, but “One” caller called the police and reported two black guys are attacking a homeless guy. This is how the police responded. This is something my son and his friends will never forget. I’m still wonder how will I ever help my son recover from this traumatic experience. Please pray for my family. Please Share to protect our kids!!!”

In response to the backlash, the Sheriff’s Department claimed it received an assault with a deadly weapon 911 call. The department said the caller explained that there were “two adult males hitting another man with a skateboard.” TMZ reports that “the kids were detained and after deputies spoke with them and witnesses, they were released and no arrests were made.” The department doesn’t know what happened to the homeless man, the publication reports.
