Tensions are flying excessive within the video, by which quite a few cops might be seen standing round contained in the places of work of Life Camp, on Sutphin Blvd. in South Jamaica, whereas the group’s founder and CEO, Erica Ford, angrily questions why they’re there.

“A search warrant for what?” Ford asks a number of occasions within the video. “What are you searching for?”

“I’m asking you not to interfere with the search warrant that we are executing,” Deputy Inspector Sean Claxton, the commander of the 113th Precinct, might be seen saying within the video at one level.

Ford denies that she is trying to dam the search.

“I am not interrupting s—! Get the f—ing police commissioner on the phone!” she shouts halfway by the video.

A police spokesperson stated in an announcement that the search was associated to the tried homicide of a 17-year-old that occurred on Tuesday on Rockaway Blvd. about 20 blocks away from the Life Camp places of work.

“During the execution of the warrant, a 27-year-old male interfered and was arrested and charged with Obstruction [of] Governmental Administration and Resisting Arrest,” based on the assertion.

When reached by telephone Friday evening, Ford confirmed that Life Camp’s places of work have been raided and stated one in every of her staff was arrested.

“I’m trying to get my employee out of jail,” she stated. “I’m speaking with the lawyers now.”

It was not instantly clear if the arrested particular person had something to do with the tried homicide investigation.

Towards the top of the video police might be seen leaving with what seems to be a pc arduous drive.

Ford based Life Camp in 2002. The group, which gives a variety of group providers aimed toward decreasing gun violence, together with mentoring and after-school packages, acquired one of many first licenses to function a retail hashish dispensary in 2022.

In an instagram put up final week, Ford thanked Brooklyn District Legal professional Eric Gonzalez, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, Rev. Al Sharpton and different luminaries for supporting her peace advocacy efforts.
