- Philadelphia police are investigating an officer over a viral confrontation.
- Jerald Bridges says the officer had detained him hours earlier.
- Bridges alleges a threat to shoot him and says he feels scared.

## Summary

A Philadelphia police officer is under investigation for alleged misconduct after viral footage showed him shoving Jerald Bridges and accusing him of liking his daughter’s social media pictures. The incident matters because Bridges says the confrontation followed an earlier arrest by the same officer and left him afraid to be near him.

Bridges, 33, says he was detained outside a restaurant after being told to move while waiting for food, then given a citation for disorderly behaviour. He denies liking the officer’s daughter’s pictures, though he said friends may have commented on the officer’s Halloween costume. In the later encounter, the officer also slapped a witness’s phone from their hand; Bridges alleges the officer threatened to shoot him, a claim not confirmed in the article.
