N.C. Blogger Threatened With Arrest For Photographing Arrest | Pixiq

N.C. Blogger Threatened With Arrest For Photographing Arrest | Pixiq: "A North Carolina blogger was threatened with arrest Thursday after attempting to photograph a cop making an arrest.

When the blogger demanded the cop’s name, he lied and provided the name of a fellow cop.

The woman who runs Crime in Charlotte then called the public information officer, who informed her that the First Amendment did not apply in Charlotte.

According to a North Carolina blog called Cedar Posts and Barbwire Fences:

When Crime In Charlotte requested the officer's name he told her that his name was Williams. Turns out he forgot that his name was M. Thompson and that the other officer's name was Williams."
