Postal Worker injured on way to police station when plainclothes cops rear-ends car.
The New York Police Department is investigating alleged disorderly conduct after the controversial arrest of a postal worker while he delivered packages on his route, reports CBS News correspondent DeMarco Morgan.
Cellphone video captured the plainclothes NYPD officers approaching 27-year-old Glen Grays. The postal worker was in the middle of his shift on St. Patrick’s Day.
He said he tried to comply with the officers’ orders.”Never been arrested, never received a summons. I was extremely terrified. I wouldn’t say afraid – I passed the stage of afraid,” Grays said.
Grays was frisked and put in an unmarked patrol car. That’s when the video ends.
“If it can happen to the mailman, it can happen to anyone in the community,” said Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams.Adams, who is also a former NYPD captain, released the video to the public.
“Those officers were extremely aggressive and I believe that they wanted him to resist. He was smart enough not to resist,” he said. “I believe because of that, he’s sitting here today telling his story.”
The NYPD told CBS News all three officers and the lieutenant involved remain on duty, but have been placed on general patrol pending the investigation.

If the THUG would have done what he was told, ……. But, they rarely do.
Why haven’t the postal inspectors arrested the police officers involved on federal charges, interfering with government official,
delay of mail, all Federal offensives. Those arrests would put a stop to future police harassment, and where is the US attorney for New York, if it was a clerk that cause the delay of the mail or leaving mail unsecured they would all ready be breaking rocks at Leavenworth.
Not much will happen to the NYPD gestapo. Just look what happened to that policeman that killed the man in the stairwell in the public housing. Six months of house arrest. The police crap never ends! The police demand that public treat them with respect while they treat the public like dirt.
since when is the PO uniform a hoodie with a baseball cap on sideways? pay peanuts and you will attract monkeys! refused to show cops ID……fire the bum!
When you are a new employee you do not get a uniform for90days. If you are a temporary or casual you don’t get a uniform.
