Texas Woman, Four Children Accidentally Pulled Over At Gun Point
A Texas woman going home from food shopping was pulled over by the police at gun point.
Shocking new dash cam video shows a young mother being pulled over at gun point by police in Forney, Texas, all while her four children were in the car.
Police admit they made a mistake but reportedly are refusing to apologize.
Kametra Barbour says she was driving four children under the age of 10 home when she was suddenly stopped and surrounded by police.
Officer: “Driver let me see your hands everybody stick their hands out the window.” Barbour: “What is wrong?” Officer: “I’ll tell you in a minute.”
Pulled Over At Gun Point
Barbour was told to exit the vehicle with her hands above her head. Police then shackled them in cuffs right in front of her children.
Barbour: “What is wrong? My kids!”
Officer: “How old are they?”
Barbour: “They’re six and eight and ten, nine. What are we doing?”
Officer: “Hold on a second, okay?”
Barbour: “What is going on? Oh my God, you will terrify my children.”
Officer: “We got a complaint of a vehicle matching your description and your license plate, waving a gun out the window.”
Traffic stop : Police Mistake
The traffic stop was in response to a 911 caller who had told dispatch four Black men were waiving a gun out the window of a beige- or tan-colored Toyota.
The problem: Barbour’s car is a burgundy red Nissan Maxima.
It wasn’t until Barbour’s 6-year-old son, Ryan, came out of the car with his hands up too that police realized they had made a mistake.
Officer 1: “Do they look young to you?”
Officer 2: “They do to me.”
Officer 1: “Huh?”
Officer 2: “They do to me.”
Officer 1: “Yep, they’re young.”
Officer 1: “Gun down, gun down, gun down!”
The officers then quickly went to work trying to calm down the now terrified children.
Officer: “Ya’ll okay? Just ya’ll in the car?”
Child: “No im scared.” Officer: “It’s okay.”
Child: “No, are we going to jail?”
Officer: “No. No one is going to jail.” Child: (Scream, crying)
Officer: “Hey, stop crying. It’s okay. It’s okay. Everything’s fine now.”
The police department defends the traffic stop saying the officers responded appropriately to what they believed was a dangerous situation.
