Austin police have suspended two police officers who blocked an activist from recording video of a traffic stop. Maufrais received a 20-day suspension without pay, and Lane was suspended for 10 days. Maufrais' attorney on Friday told KXAN-TV that he was caught off guard by someone videotaping him and had returned less than a year earlier from Afghanistan. Turner told the station that there was "no way" to justify the officers' actions. Texas law generally allows videotaping of police officers in a public space without permission.
