I think this is the first time I’ve read *why* the cops came for #ElijahMcClain. WTF was the purpose of this 911 call (other than pure racism)? Why didn’t the operator say “Yeah none of that is a crime and it sounds like no one is in danger”? They sent cops…why?

Screenshot from news article: 
On 24 August 2019, McClain, a massage
 therapist, was walking home from the store
 listening to music on his headphones when
 a passing driver called 911 to report a
 "sketchy" person who "might be a good
 person or a bad person". The caller noted he
 did not see any weapons and did not
 believe anyone was in danger.
