The Prince George’s County police chief apologized in a video this week after an officer made a comment to a group of children Friday about a “black bad guy” in explaining how the K-9 unit at the department operates.
Chief Hank Stawinski said in a YouTube video that he was apologizing on behalf of the officer and the department for the remark, which he called “unfortunate.”
The chief’s comments were in response to another video posted to YouTube in which an officer is heard explaining what a K-9 dog does “if a black bad guy is running and he drops his cellphone.” . . .
