Incident Reports

2024 Arrest of Samson Allen

On June 30, 2024, police and paramedics were called after Samson's brother crashed his motorbike and needed medical treatment. Samson and another brother loaded the bike into a truck and prepared to take it home. Chambers ordered the men to take the bike out of the truck. After they refused, Chambers ordered Samson to put his hands behind his back.[3]

Chambers took Samson to the ground, knelt on his neck, and attempted to handcuff him. Chambers ordered onlookers to back up, swung at a person who was videoing, and threatened him with his Taser.[4]

The incident was captured on body-worn camera and cell-phone video.[5][4]

Samson was arrested for Resisting and Obstructing an Officer.[3]
