NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton ‘not pleased’ with cops who busted postal worker — WARNING: GRAPHIC LANGUAGE

Bratton ‘not pleased’ with cops who busted mailman — GRAPHIC
NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
Updated: Wednesday, April 20, 2016, 4:19 PM

NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton said he’s “not happy” with the behavior of four cops who cuffed a postal worker.

The three officers and one lieutenant violated police rules by working in plainclothes, not uniform, Bratton said, adding he’s “fully involved” with an internal affairs probe of the incident.

“On initial review of the video, I am not pleased with what I saw, the actions of our officers, but internal affairs will make a more complete report to me,” Bratton said at a press conference Monday.

Postal worker Glenn Grays, 27, of East New York, said he was on duty and driving along President St. in Crown Heights on March 17 when an unmarked police car nearly hit his mail truck.

He shouted something in frustration, he said, and the police car stopped and backed up. The officers demanded his ID, cuffed him and took him away. The scene was caught on several cameras Bratton said, including a cell phone video circulated by the media.

Grays said he was “told to shut up numerous times” after being led into an unmarked cruiser. The cruiser rear-ended another vehicle, pitching his shoulder into the driver’s seat and his face into the armrest, he said. Grays wants to see the officers disciplined, but not fired.

“They might have family, kids that they need to support,” Grays told CBS New York. “It’s sad. I thought that when I put on the uniform that I’d be treated a little different. But there’s no difference. And I’m just another brother with a uniform.”

The officers were assigned to deal with chronic problems in a neighborhood and should have been in uniform.

“That's in direct violation of the patrol guide,” Bratton said.
