The viral clip shows a barefoot man repeatedly trying to open a woman’s Rolls‑Royce while she sits inside. Officers warned him, then used a Taser when he persisted; the device reportedly was used twice as he resisted before officers handcuffed him. Viewers were divided, with some defending police action and others questioning the use of force. Claims of earlier incidents that day and the exact sequence before and after the video remain unverified.
Barefoot Man Tries to Enter Woman’s Rolls‑Royce While She’s Inside — Officers Tase and Arrest Him
A widely shared video shows a barefoot man repeatedly trying to open the door of a woman’s bright orange Rolls‑Royce while she remained seated behind the wheel. The clip captures officers intervening, deploying a Taser and ultimately placing the man in handcuffs.
What Happened
The footage opens with the woman still inside the car as a barefoot man reaches for the door handle. An officer audible in the clip warns him, "Don't touch the car." The man ignores the command and manages to open the door; the driver appears shaken and attempts to pull it closed while an officer assists.
The man attempts a second time to get at the vehicle. A second officer moves in and deploys a Taser from behind, causing the man to scream and collapse. After officers gain control and place him in handcuffs, the man resists; officers used the Taser a second time during that struggle before securing him.
Aftermath and Reactions
The social post that circulated the clip identified the incident as occurring in Miami, though that detail and other contextual claims were posted by users and not independently verified. Comments on the post were mixed: some viewers defended the officers’ actions as necessary to protect the driver, while others questioned whether the man’s behavior justified the use of force or an arrest.
One commenter alleged the man had been involved in earlier incidents that day, including a theft at a gas station and creating trouble at a nearby restaurant; that claim could not be confirmed. The video ends after the man is handcuffed, and available footage does not show events before or after the shown encounter.
Note on Verification
Key details — including the man’s prior conduct and events after the arrest — remain unverified based on the video alone and the accompanying social media post.
