4 black parole officers are filing lawsuits against N.Y. police officers for racial profiling. The parole officers were driving in a car with bullet proof vests on their way to issue an arrest warrant. A call was made to 911 about 4 people driving a car with bullet proof vests. The car was pulled over and held at gunpoint for 6 minutes, the 4 parole officers claim to be treated aggressively even after they announced who they were. One officer claims to being dragged out of the vehicle even though the video doesn't shot this. Another officer says "if we were white we wouldn't have gotten pulled over". By law assault actually can mean threatened with force.
