Let’s keep Kendrick Sampson in our prayers. 

The Insecure star was reportedly attacked by police while in Colombia. The actor reposted a video that shows a police officer in the city of Cartagena grabbing his arm and then punching him in the face before pulling out his gun.

In the caption of the post, Sampson wrote, “What @nataliareyesg wrote below is correct. Cartagena is AMAZING but this is the 6th time I was stopped in 5 days. It happens to Black Colombians often. I’m told stopping is policy but what is NOT is they reached down my underwear aggressively, slap my arms 5 times hard, punch me in my jaw and pull his gun on me. He then cuffed me and dragged me through the streets. I did not resist any legal procedure. Thank u for posting @nataliareyesg & for helping me through this. And to the person who recorded this.”
