The news station held up a picture of the perpetrator & they asked people for details about the crime
I was on my way back from the subway when a cop stopped me & told me that I had to show him my id; I immediately told the cop that I wanted to know why he was stopping me. I had not done anything wrong, he told me that I’m absolutely the description of a suspect that had just stolen marijuana from a recreational & medical dispensary a block down the corner. I told the officer that I had just gotten off the subway. I showed that guy my ticket stub. He still made me get down on the ground until I showed him my identification card. I actually didn’t know anything about the theft, however the cops thought that I looked exactly love the suspect. I thought the guy was profiling until I saw the news later that morning… There was a story about the theft from the recreational & medical marijuana dispensary, because the perpetrator had gotten away with almost $5,000 worth of products. I know he had a gun & held the staff hostage while he emptied out an entire refrigerator that was filled with live resin & rosin marijuana products. The news station held up a picture of the perpetrator & they asked people for details about the crime. They wanted people to call into the station if they knew the whereabouts of the suspect; When they held up the photo, I almost spit out my drink. The guy in the picture did look almost exactly love me. I was lucky the cop didn’t shoot me in the face.
