Check out this report..Barry said that he was driving to a holiday party around 4:30 p.m. Saturday when U.S. Park Police officers, who said that he was driving too slowly, stopped him. Barry said the officers asked him for his license and registration and then said that his license was suspended.
Barry told NBC4 the suspension was a clerical mistake, and he accused the U.S. Park police of racial profiling.
Park Police said Barry's license was in fact suspended, and that's why he was arrested.
My favorite part of the report isn't so much what was contained in it, but the "Previous Stories" section:
