Officer Jones is an officer who stopped Jamal Romero after a neighbor reported suspicious activity.
History[]
Officer Jones, along with Officer Smith and another officer, responded to a neighbor who called to report suspicious activity. They arrived to find Jamal walking with his hood up and carrying a backpack. They called out to him and he began to run away. They chased him and caught him. They pinned him to the ground and zip tied his hands behind his back, then Jones and the other officer held him down while Smith held a gun on him. They called to have him sedated.
When Vic and Andy arrived, they said they couldn't treat Jamal until Smith put his gun down and they got Jamal off the ground. Once he was sitting up, Smith warned that he'd already called for backup in case Jamal was planning to make a move. After examining Jamal, Vic told Smith that he didn't needed to be sedated. Smith tried to defend his actions with Jamal and Vic reminded him that they don't even know if Jamal did anything. While they were arguing over this, Dixon arrived along with Officers Williams and Brown. He asked Vic and Andy to step aside so they could take Jamal down to the station. Vic and Andy refused and then Ross arrived.
Ross told Dixon she was a spotter in the military, so she noticed everything. She was able to tell that Officer Jones was trigger-happy and Brown was new to the job, while Smith was Dixon's right-hand man. She also deduced that none of the officers had their body cams on. Despite this, Dixon decided he wanted to do things the hard way and refused to back down. He said that Jamal was calm, so it was PD's call. He ordered his officers to bring Jamal in. Jamal panicked and got up and tried to run. Ross, Vic, and Andy put themselves between Jamal and the officers and tried to call Jamal down. Ross asked Dixon just to let them take Jamal home. She had Andy check his backpack and they confirmed he was unarmed and his backpack only held groceries. Ross told them to lower their weapons and go back to their station to write a report that said they detained a kid who was just trying to get home to his mom. She also drew their attention to a window, where a woman was filming and likely streaming their actions. Dixon told his officers to stand down and repeated the order when they didn't immediately do so.
