Patrick Cherry, a New York Police detective assigned to the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force with top secret security clearance is facing suspension, reassignment and loss of his clearance after an incident with an Uber driver Monday that a passenger captured on video, reports KTLA 5.
The passenger, Sanjay Seth, posted the video on YouTube and it has gone viral. In the video description, Seth explained the altercation:
“Police abuse of Uber driver in New York City. In an unmarked car, the policeman was allegedly attempting to park without using his blinker at a green light. (His reverse lights weren’t on. Likely double parked without hazards on.) The Uber driver pulled around and gestured that he should use his blinker, casually and non-offensively, and kept driving us. The policeman quickly pulls up behind us and this is what happens.”
Watch for yourself (warning: extreme profanity and abusive language).
The unmarked car Cherry used to pull over the Uber driver doesn’t belong to the NYPD, the Daily News reports. Cherry was on his way to work after seeing another police officer, who was in the hospital.
Seth posted video of the exchange on multiple social media accounts. On his Facebook page, he wrote, “Our Uber driver, Humayun, was abused by a police officer today in New York. The rage, door slamming, throwing items into the car, threatening arrest without cause was bad enough — but the officer’s remarks at the end really took it to another level.”
Humayun has filed a complaint, and the NYPD said that the CCRB, an independent city agency with subpoena power, has taken over the investigation.
In a statement, Uber spokesman Matt Wing said,
“The behavior in the video is wrong and unacceptable and we appreciate the NYPD investigating the incident. We are in touch with our driver-partner who was subjected to this terrible experience and will continue to provide any support he needs.”
As someone who was recently on the receiving end of a particularly nasty police officer’s rantings, I empathize with Humayun and his passengers. Good for them for remaining calm and kudos to Seth for recording the incident.

Typical SS Nazi officer performing his everyday job. Just like all swine, they are lords of the street and this is very normal actions to everyday swine. Glad someone finally filmed one in live action because we all know that this is normal in all swine departments. And remember, these guys carry weapons and since they can’t control themselves, now do you understand why they murder 1,000s of unarmed citizens each year, while only 39 cops were killed in all 50 states in 2013 by citizens? They are the perfect higher up level officer who teaches these types of actions to the new recruits. If this was WW2 nazi germany, like we almost 100% at, he’d just have rid this guy of his life, walk away, and let someone else pick up the scraps. The US is 90+% their as in Nazi SS officers, and they are waiting for the support so they can be left off their dog leash to rid millions of us… Anyone else see it here?
I think of the original Planet of the Apes movies with this kind of behavior. There is simply no reason for this level of intimidation. The incident should not be under review, the incident should have resulted in immediate dismissal of this jerk.
This is how you rid this filth from our streets once martial law starts. it starts in your city and if you don’t know how to become free once the police state starts, you’ll be placed into prison, but this real world working story tells you how not to be a victim of your criminal government powers over you… Take freedom back by this plan:

Hey Patrick Cherry, you are nothing but a thug. If you confronted me that way without any justification as you did him, the outcome would have been very different… I wish I had your address or phone number so I could berate you, you meaningless little maggot… You are a bully and a worthless little man that needs to be seriously tuned in!!
I would love to be the tuner, you little pussy!!
“You understand me? You understand me?”. Sit down and un-puff yourself tough guy. The driver was courteous and respectful, and did not warrant your egregious behavior. Grow up, cop.
