NYPD Denies Allegations Of Spying On Drake Fans At The Apollo

NYC- The New York Police Department is denying spying on Drake fans at the Apollo this past weekend.

Fans were shocked when they exited Apollo Sunday night and were met with an NYPD officer pointing an iPhone at them, filming.

According to the NYPD, the police officer who was seen recording fans as they left the show was a Community Affairs officer from the 28th precinct’s “social media team”.

He was filming fans leaving the show to capture a future video about events happening in NYC and not for any other purposes.

A spokesperson for the Office of the Deputy Commissioner Public Information said:

“The officer depicted in the video is a Community Affairs officer involved with the 28th Precinct’s social media team.” The officer was taking video for an upcoming Twitter post that will highlight the local community events. The video will not be utilized for any other reason.”
