Questions Over Arrest of Man Who Spotted Doll's Head on Cop Car

Early yesterday, Clarence Jones was arrested for allegedly driving off when police officers were attempting to issue a summons for parking in front of a bus stop. However, some Harlem residents and a lawmaker wonder if the NYPD is trying to get back at Jones, because he is one of the people who complained after seeing an unmarked police car with a black doll's head on the antenna. The NYPD, though, said the officers had no idea Jones was connected to that complaint; per the NY Times, "Police officials said that the officers pursued Mr. Jones to 116th Street and Fifth Avenue, where, they said, he left the car and became loud and boisterous, trying to film them with his cellphone." Jones was released without bail.
