London cops apologize
Print Edition
London police apologized to British sprinter Bianca Williams yesterday after officers stopped and searched her car over the weekend. Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick told the British parliament that police had apologized for 鈥渢he distress it has clearly caused her.鈥 Williams was a sprint relay gold medalist at the 2018 Commonwealth Games and 2018 European Championships. Dick said two reviews of the evidence within the police found no apparent misconduct during the search. She added that the Metropolitan Police had now voluntarily referred itself for another review by the Independent Office for Police Conduct, a regulator. Williams and Ricardo dos Santos, a Portuguese sprinter, are both black and were stopped in their Mercedes on Saturday afternoon while traveling with their 3-month-old son. Williams accused London police of racial profiling. Both Williams and dos Santos were handcuffed during the search. The force said the vehicle was seen driving suspiciously.
