AceShowbiz - Jack Harlow wants to make sure his fans are well protected. After watching a video of a police officer grabbing a woman's neck outside of his show, the "Industry Baby" hitmaker called for his firing.
The 23-year-old shared the clip of the incident on Instagram on Wednesday, December 29. He tagged Atlanta, Georgia as the location where he performed at the Coca-Cola Roxy as part of "The Creme De La Creme Tour" one night prior.
In the 13-second footage, the woman was seen pleading with two policemen, "All I wanted to do was go to a Jack Harlow show." One of the officers, however, put his hand on the woman's neck and pushed her away, saying, "Get out of my face."
The altercation left Jack upset. In the caption of the post, he argued, "This video came to my attention a few hours ago. When I watched it I was disgusted by that cop and all I wanted to do was make something good happen for this girl immediately…I told the world to help me identify her so I could find a way to give her a hug and give her as many tickets to as many shows as she wants."
"But that's not enough and its not a solution to a systemic issue that people who don't look like me have to face. The next step is identifying this police officer and getting him unemployed as fast as we can," the emcee fumed. "Assaulting a young woman and putting his hands on her neck is sickening."
"I look out in the crowd every night and see black women in my front row…screaming my lyrics, traveling to see me, supporting me, riding for me. I want this woman, and every black woman that supports me to know - I am so sorry," he added. "I want you to be protected and I want this guy to lose his job so f**king fast. I love you. Let's find this officer."
The officer reportedly works with the Cobb County Police Department, which already addressed the incident. "The Cobb County Police Department takes any and all allegations of officer misconduct very seriously," it said in a statement.
"We are aware of the video snippet posted to Instagram involving our officer and a young woman outside the Coca-Cola Roxy," the message continued. "The incident is going through an internal review to get a full understanding of the entire incident before any potential action is taken."
