It was Easter Sunday. A friend was driving a friend from North Carolina back home to Florida for his mother’s funeral. They were pulled over by police.
The two friends were asked to step out of the vehicle and put their hands on the back of their heads, which they did. Ten cop cars were on the scene by this point. The police claimed they pulled them over because of their rental car’s Georgia license plate.
App State defensive lineman Elijah Diarrassouba was in the driver’s seat of that car, taking his teammate Demetrius Taylor to Florida.
