Skateboarders ?upset? over officer?s actions in Web video

Published



A group of skateboarders is upset over a YouTube video depicting a Baltimore police officer pushing and yelling at a teenager who called him “dude.”

“It’s obviously an incident that drew attention to the plight of our youth and adult skateboarders,” said Stephanie Murdock, the president of Skatepark of Baltimore. “I?m upset by the way the situation was handled. If it were kids playing baseball, I doubt they would have been treated the same way.”
