Washington, D.C. — Benjamin Davis III was driving to work this week when he watched a car in front of him lose control and begin flipping off the road. Being the good Samaritan that he is, Davis stopped to help and could very well be the reason the passenger of the vehicle survived.
“The guy is hanging out of the passenger side door. Unfortunately, his friend was crushed,” Davis said.
Davis was able to get one person out of the car and very well could’ve been responsible for saving his life. The other occupant of the vehicle, 21-year-old Kyree Payne of Northeast D.C., was crushed and died before Davis even got to him.
After Davis saved the only person he could, he waited at the scene for police to show up. When the D.C. police arrived on the scene, Davis told them everything that he witnessed and what he did. He was then allowed to leave.
As Davis pulled away from the scene, however, a D.C. police officer pulled him over less than a block away. This would be the beginning of a nightmare, according to Davis.
“He said, ‘You’re being detained because you were a witness to a vehicle where someone died in an accident,‘” Davis said.
His decision to help a random stranger in need had backfired thanks to police who would proceed to make his life a living hell.
As WJLA reports,
Davis said he was made to wait for about two hours and was harshly questioned, before he claims a police supervisor told him because he witnessed a fatal crash, his car was being towed.
Davis also said that he was not involved in the crash and that his driver’s license is active and his car is registered and insured — as police gave him no citations. Unfortunately for Davis, he will have to find a way to work as his car is still impounded.
Davis still does not know where his car is. He noted that the police are still harassing him and keeping his car for no reason.
“I got treated like a suspect and my car was stolen by police in D.C., and I don’t know where my vehicle is,” Davis said.
