The complete body camera footage of the arrest of a Detroit pastor by Highland Park Police Officers has been made available on Youtube. 

The video, posted by Youtube user Charles Lackey on Aug. 7, shows the interaction leading to the arrest of prominent Highland Park Pastor Rev. David Bullock. It shows the officer approach three women, including one minor, while gathering information for an alleged assault that took place earlier that day on Sunday, June 24. 

Bullock is told by the officer that he is interfering with the investigation while the officer is asking the women questions about the incident. The officer is then heard telling Bullock that he will be arrested if he refuses to leave the area. Bulluck responds, "arrest me."
