Arrested For Recording The Police

If you see the cops kicking someone’s ass, you’d better think twice about whipping out your cell phone and recording the incident unless you want to be arrested too. I have one word of advice for anyone in this situation…"zoom"…use it (preferably from across the street).

Thinking their force seemed excessive for a drug arrest, Glik pulled out his cell phone and began recording. Within minutes, Glik said, he was in handcuffs. The charge? Illegal electronic surveillance.
