        That was a very close-minded reaction to this young man, Too many police officers do not even consider mental or physical disabilities when dealing with people. They need open minds and more training.

        As the Grandma to a Grandson with Autism this is so disturbing to me! Words cannot express how sad and scary this video is! It's really hard to watch! I hope in the future Police Officers are trained on how to deal with people with disabilities!! I wonder where his family was!

        You don't have to be a doctor to know what mental illness is. You just have to have common sense.

        If they had told the officers when they showed up that this young man was Autistic none of this would have happened. Hopefully!

        We’re lucky to live in a community where many of the police know our child with autism. Get to know your local law enforcement, teach them!

        Indeed! Our local law enforcement is trained to deal with a wide array of mental disabilities/impairments/challenges. At the end of the day, we need to help each other stay safe.
