Bodycam Footage Of Christian Barmore’s Incident With Police Released

There is now more known about the incident New England Patriots star Christian Barmore had with police following a traffic stop in the early morning hours Wednesday in Providence, R.I.

Bodycam footage of Barmore’s encounter with police was released Wednesday night. It showed a frustrated Barmore vehemently arguing with police after being asked to exit his vehicle. At one point, it appears Barmore swipes an arm of a police officer off of him.

According to the Providence Police Department report, Barmore was pulled over at 12:53 a.m. ET for operating an unregistered vehicle. Police found a blunt and several tubes of marijuana in the car, according to NBC 10 Boston, and cited the 25-year-old for driving with an expired registration — it expired last week — and plate cover violations. The vehicle was towed from the scene and Barmore left in another vehicle.

Barmore called out the officers involved on social media, alleging they acted in an unprofessional and racist manner.

Patriots first-year head coach Jerod Mayo was asked about the incident Wednesday during his press conference and he said the team is “aware of the situation.”
