A Philly officer has been pulled from street duty while police investigate whether he tried to extort money from a man he stopped for an alleged traffic violation.
Video appears to show the officer giving a driver an ultimatum: Buy tickets to "The Hero Thrill Show," or your car will get impounded.
Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey said after watching the video. "It's just not good at all. There's nothing about the stop that's good. Period. And I'm not going to even remotely try to justify any of it."
"The Hero Thrill Show" is being held this year on October 10, 2015 at the Wells Fargo Center. The event helps pay for the children of fallen officers and firefighters to attend college.
