NY cop caught lying about permits to harass busker for ‘aggressive panhandling’

A police officer in Albany, New York is under investigation after he was caught on video accosting a busker and misleading him about local statutes in order to shoo him off the street, the local reported.
The footage shows Officer Glenn Szelest telling the artist, Leif Solem, “Go down to City Hall, go see the clerk they’ll explain everything to you. First Amendment or nothing.”
However, the department told the Times-Union that buskers are not required to have permits to perform, nor is there a law against busking in the city.

They should fire him, though.  The guy is a felony waiting to happen.

A department spokesperson confirmed that Szelest was placed on administrative duty after the video came to light. Solem is reportedly organizing a protest event with other artists, slated for Sept. 21.
