Late one night in August 2013, Antwynette Houston pulled up at a local convenience store near her home. She was approached by off-duty officer, Scott Sturgeon, who began to confront and harass her about the way she parked her car. According to the police report, Ms. Houston first parked in a handicap space without realizing it, and then moved her car to another space when Sturgeon told her to move. After Ms. Houston moved her car, Sturgeon was not satisfied because the car was allegedly crooked, and touching the painted line on one side of the parking space. He then became aggressive with her, accusing her of being drunk and demanding her ID. Frightened, Ms. Houston called 911 to request backup and told the off-duty officer that she was going to wait for them to arrive because she was afraid of him. Next, the unthinkable happened and was captured on a security camera. Oh, and by the way,Ms. Houston's son, who was 9 years old at the time, was in the car and witnessed the entire incident. Tune in to hear her frightening story.
