Officers responded to a disturbance call at a gas station in Canton, Ohio. What they found was a group of four nineteen-year-olds, a driver who admitted to drinking earlier that evening, and a passenger who immediately called her father — a criminal defense attorney — from the back seat.
The bodycam documents the full encounter: the initial stop, the field sobriety process, the escalation when one passenger refused to comply, and the father's arrival on scene.
