A security guard who witnessed police officers in Houston, Texas in a serious struggle to arrest a suspect chose to record the incident on her cellphone, rather than help the officers get the situation under control.
Bystanders began filming the confrontation between the officer and 17-year-old Davon Shavelle Miller, who was pulled over and ran from the officer, a local news station reported.
“He’s trying to kill me!” the suspect yelled, while the officer yelled that Miller was trying to grab his service weapon.
One man can be seen helping the officer hold Miller on the ground, as others at the gas station pleaded with Miller to stop resisting.
At one point, a female security guard is seen recording on her cell phone instead of assisting the officer.
“Stop #***ing taping and help me,” a cop appears to say to her.
The security guard was fired after the video went viral, while Miller is charged with disarming a police officer.

I’m glad the security guard was fired. The majority of security guards are just a entry-level unarmed (with little to no training) position to earn some extra income. They aren’t equipped to handle real situations, but are there to dial 9-11 in an emergency.
She must of got her training in NY.
How is she any different than the accessor to MURDER, Scot Peterson? Guaranteed she won’t lose a penny of her taxpayer funded pension. Her superiors don’t want to labeled as racists. Thank you Eric Holder.
you expect a black woman to help a cop? let’s be real. maybe when cops stop beating the hell out of blacks that will happen
What more do you expect from a female “security officer”? They shouldn’t be cops, security officer or firefighters. They aren’t cut out for these positions and G-d didn’t create them for such purpose.
