Authorities say two deputies were sent to a neighborhood in Springfield, Michigan on January 2 after a call about a suspicious person possibly soliciting.
A 10-minute video recording shows La'Ron Marshall was going door-to-door collecting signatures to form a tenant organization when police arrested him.
"We hold all Calhoun County sheriff deputies to a high standard," said Sheriff Steve Hinkley in a statement video.

It’s a good step, that he was fired. However its very likely he will be rehired on another department, and therefor the firing didn’t server its purpose as a deterrent. So was
justice really carried out?
The gentleman being arrested does a great job of staying extremely calm and thankfully theirs a witness to document the incident. The police officers are not willing to show or tell their badge number and when I asked why they arresting him, they say “we will figure it out.” .... this whole thing is so wrong.
