The City of Toronto is investigating after one of its employees appears in a profanity-laden video accusing a police officer of racial profiling. The worker, employed by Solid Waste Management Services, can be heard — but not seen — furiously berating the unseen cop as several Toronto police officers try to calm him down. “You know this guy’s asked me for my driver’s licence and insurance over a f------ parking space,” the worker tells the cops who arrive on the scene, in the video posted on vid.me, a video sharing website. The worker, who recorded the interaction with his cellphone, admits he parked in the disabled spot for about 45 seconds while running into a convenience store to buy a lottery ticket. But he suggests the officer used his vehicle to block him from getting into his car and leaving because he “thought I was just a regular n-----.”
