This is one of the most watched videos in recent hours!
On the images posted online on the night of Sunday July 17 to Monday July 18, we see Tiémoué Bakayoko, AC Milan midfielder (on loan from Chelsea, editor’s note), taken out of his car by the Italian police, then searched by a officer, while his colleague is holding the passenger or passengers who are still in the car at gunpoint. The facts date back to July 3. According Gazzetta dello Sportthe police were looking for individuals after a shooting between Senegalese nationals linked to drug trafficking.

The scene lasts several tens of seconds, before a third Italian policeman arrives and signals to his colleague the identity of the person he is searching. Confused, the policeman stops the search immediately, realizing that it was not the person sought and almost seems to apologize. The French international, recently crowned Italian champion with the Lombard club, remained calm throughout the scene … unlike very angry Internet users in the comments on social networks. Many have pointed to the attitude of the transalpine police forces towards the 28-year-old footballer. Accused of racism, then later of favoritism for having immediately released the young man after realizing that he was a Serie A star, the Italian police defended themselves. “These comments are inappropriate, the check was triggered because Tiémoué Bakayoko and the other passenger corresponded perfectly, by chance, to the descriptions, and obviously it ended when we realized that we had arrested a person who had nothing to do with the person sought”said the sports daily.
