“An officer with the Leland Police Department has been suspended without pay for 28 days after a teenager recorded video of an arrest on his cell phone. 19-year-old Gabriel Self tried approaching Leland Police Sergeant John Keel as he was arresting another man on drug charges. Sgt. Keel told Self to leave the area. ‘Before I could even get two words out, I was immediately approached by Sgt. Keel with extreme intimidation,’ Self said. As Self was explaining himself, Sgt. Keel arrested him. The charge was resisting, obstructing, or delaying a law enforcement officer. Self said Keel was simply standing in the parking lot, so he did not see how he could be interfering with anything.”
