He directly confessed to the police officers and the Louisville Metro Police Department. The Police Department made it clear that they don’t need anybody to lose their job due to this incident. This viral story is one of the claims involved policemen. In the late 2014, rumors started circulating with a claim that several police officers of NYPD were allegedly refused from a Brooklyn Chipotle. The initial investigation by the chain confirmed that police officers selected to leave when an employee made a Don’t Shoot gesture. A number of stories circulated in the month of September 2015 about “shunned policeman” on most of the social media websites involving a Philadelphia Starbucks, a Florida Arby’s and Texas Whatburger. Similar claim circulated on social media websites in 2016 about shunned policemen at a McDonalds in Alabama.
