- So Officer Byerly has apparently
ran a plate and the registered owner
comes back it looks like a warrant for burglary
and escape, so it's a felony warrant.
He has identified the driver as the same description
as a person who's got the warrant,
so we're going to see if we can make contact with him.
- You can go ahead and-- you think that's him,
or is it the guy that's walking?
- [bleep] damn.
I don't know.
- All right, go up and do him first and then I'll go check.
- So we can ID you, OK?
- What did I do, sir?
- You haven't done anything.
- You can just pull up on me and put me in cuffs.
- Recording. - I don't get that [bleep] bro.
- Dispatch recording.
- You're just being detained, bro.
- For what?
- Investigation for a--
hey, just calm down, dude.
For investigation for a warrant.
It's not you then you're good.
But that's why you got to carry ID on you.
- Oh, I don't mind.
- If you're not Mr. Harden then we're good.
- If you had your ID, we wouldn't
have had to do this, right? - Right.
I would never, you know what I'm saying?
- OK.
- I wouldn't do you all like that, man.
- But had we walked up said, hey bro, are you Mr. Harden?
And you said, no man, here's my ID card.
- I'm sorry bro.
- Then we would have been like, all right.
- I just wasn't expecting that, bro, that's all.
- That's him.
- That's not me.
Let me see, bro.
That's not me, bro.
Look at this picture right there.
- All right, buddy, just give me a sec.
Hey, just before we get any farther down [Bleep] Creek
here OK I'm going to explain something.
- Can I just give you all my information, bro?
- Sure. - I am Mr. Harden.
- OK.
- I am his father.
- Well if that's the case, man, we'll
get you out of these in just a second, all right?
But you got to understand where we're coming from, too.
That picture looks identical.
- Yeah.
I would have-- you know, don't get me wrong, bro.
But you know, I would have ran, honestly, if I, you know.
- Do you all need me?
Can I have him give me something to drink?
I'm thirsty.
- Sure.
- And how old is he now?
- He should be probably about 27, 28-- one of the two.
29, maybe.
- And how old are you?
- I'm 46, sir.
- OK.
- 28, 28.
- So your son's 28.
- And he lives with my daughter.
I mean, I don't know, you know?
He could be in and out.
I don't know actually.
- Do you got a scanner coming?
- Yeah.
- So here's what this guy meant, all right?
- No problem man.
- Obviously you were a little hostile about giving us
your information at first. - I apologize.
- So we got a scanner.
If it turns out it's not you, we'll cut you loose
and apologize for thinking you're your son.
- You're aging pretty well though for 46, man.
[police radio chatter]
And just so you understand, man, like I said,
you're convinced that it's not you
and you don't have a warrant, so in that case,
you'll be released.
But if this thing comes back that you are who we thought
you are, you're going to catch another felony obstruction
case.
OK?
So if you're just avoiding a warrant,
it's just a simple court date.
You go down and get a new court date and get released.
There's no need to get another felony case over this,
because we're going to find out.
- OK, it's me.
[bleep]
- Nice.
- You all know it's me, man. - Yeah.
Your story is everywhere.
- Yes.
- [bleep] man.
I'm hot as hell bro, trying to lie.
- I know. [laughter]
The heat was on, man.
- [bleep] man.
OK, what's the warrant?
Don't you got to tell me?
- Escape and burglary.
- All right, the burglary charge I went to prison for,
finished my time.
I want to-- you know, honestly I'm ready to get the [bleep]
out the way, bro, so--
- Now you're ready?
- No, it ain't that, bro.
I just didn't know you all was going to come.
Like, how the [bleep] did you all find me bro?
- He wanted to give us a story that he was 46
and that his son was the one that, in fact, had the warrant.
He finally came off of who he was when we brought
the fingerprint scanner, and said
he had a warrant and everything, so he's in custody.
We'll take him out of the jail.
No additional charges.
