On February 8, 2017, according to LATimes, a Chinese actress said that someone had lied

The Chinese actress and her partner were taken away in handcuffs by unsuspecting police officers

On February 8, according to LA Times, a Chinese-American actress said that someone lied about her domestic violence incident in her apartment in West Hill, Hollywood, and the Los Angeles police officer who came out of the police mishandled and took a "completely unnecessary" force performance to handcuff her and her partner.

Cindy Chu, an actress who has starred in TV series such as "Hawaii Five-O" and "MacGyver," told the story on Twitter on Monday, a tweet that went viral online and had nearly 30,000 likes as of Tuesday.

Zhu said that around 9:30 p.m. on Sunday, she and her partner had just returned home from dinner when The Los Angeles police knocked on their door. Police asked the couple to walk out of the apartment, they were handcuffed and separated.

Zhu said this rough treatment continued when police interrogated their relationship, even when she and her partner explained that the police call was fake and that the police must have mistaken the address. Zhu wrote in the post that police confirmed that the person who dialed 911 gave the police her address.

In a statement to the Times, Zhu said: "I understand that the police also need to protect themselves, or if something happens, the victims may try to lie when the police show up, but initially their violence and shouting at us is not necessary." "I even told the policeman that his behavior scared me."

A spokesman for the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) said Tuesday that police have opened an investigation into the actions of the two officers who were dispatched, according to Zhu's post. As part of the investigation, investigators will review the video captured by the cameras worn by the police.

Under the California Open Records Act, Ms. Zhu said, she asked officials to provide a copy of the 911 police call directing police to her home. She said she wondered whether the call was a malicious false alarm incident in which someone lied about an emergency in order to harass or threaten someone living at that address.

The Times' question was whether the police contacted the person calling 911 after determining that the report of domestic violence was false, and the Los Angeles Police Department did not answer.

Zhu said she understands that when police receive a domestic violence alarm call, they must try to discern whether anyone has been attacked and ensure that victims do not downplay the incident for fear of attackers. Still, she said, the police she met crossed the line.

She said: "I'm sad... Innocent people are treated as criminals until proven innocent. Our system should not operate this way. ”
