Tyler Perry White Cops Cleared After Racial Profiling

The two white Atlanta police officers who Tyler Perry accused of being racist have been exonerated following an internal investigation by the Atlanta PD — but it was pretty much the cops’ word against Perry’s.

As we previously reported, Perry accused the two cops of racially profiling him during a “hostile” traffic stop earlier this year — when they pulled Perry over in his $110,000 Porsche for making an illegal left turn.

Perry claimed he was eventually let go without receiving a ticket — because a black officer showed up to the scene and informed the two white officers that Perry was famous.

According to docs released by the Atlanta PD, the officers claim they couldn’t see the driver behind his tinted windows, so racially profiling Perry would have been impossible.

The cops claim they believed Perry was driving a stolen car at the time — because it matched a description of a stolen vehicle — and that’s the primary reason he was pulled over.

According to the report, there was no dashboard camera in either patrol car to back up the cops’ testimony.

Following the investigation, an internal affairs officers stated, “I would submit the evidence shows the actions of both officers with the regard to the traffic stop of Mr. Perry were justified, lawful and proper.”

A rep for Perry said the filmmaker is currently out of the country and cannot be reached for comment.

Fire breaks out at Tyler Perry Studios AGAIN

Atlanta firefighters are investigating a fire that broke out at Tyler Perry Studios in southwest Atlanta on Monday.

 

 

 

The fire broke out on the roof of the studio on Continental Colony Parkway just before 11 a.m. News Chopper 2 flew over the roof around 11:30 a.m. as firefighters put out hot spots.

The Atlanta Fire Department said firefighters arrived within five minutes. The building was undergoing roof repairs when the fire broke out, the Fire Department said.

It was the second fire at the studio in recent months. In May, a massive fire severely damaged a four-story sound stage.
