Late Friday Night / Early Saturday morning, walking home from a friend's house sober I was stopped by Chaska Police. First I was accused of beating up a girl at a bar. After I denied having been any part of any incident of that sort that night, I was asked if I was breaking into cars and stealing things.
As a recent graduate of an out of state university who moved back to work and live in my hometown, I couldn't believe I was being accused of these things simply because of my age and being on foot.

After the barrage of accusations, I was asked what was in my backpack. When I told the officer it was my computer, he asked what kind. I replied telling him that it was an Apple Macbook Pro.
The officer replied, sneering, "Oh, you're one of those guys." As a homosexual male, I wasn't sure if this was an attack on my sexuality, or simply yet another person not aware of the superiority of the Macintosh OS.

After the officer had my id ran to check for warrants and it came back clear, he shone his flashlight in my face and again sneered "you have a goodnight sir."

The most riduclous part was when the first officer asked the second cop on the scene "is this the guy we're looking for?"
and the second cop looked at me, laughed and said "no."
At this point the first cop said "To tell you the truth, its been a slow night and we're bored."

Perhaps the police should find better things to do with their time than harass people who've done nothing wrong. It provides little inspiration to stay in this town and give back to the community.

Has anybody else had similar encounters with the Chaska Police?
