The NYPD has denied allegations of spying on Drake fans at a recent concert at the Apollo Theater in Harlem, New York. The rumors began after a fan fell from the second-floor balcony onto the floor below during the concert.
Videos from the concert show that Drake immediately stopped the show after the fan fell, and concertgoers rushed to help the fan, who fortunately did not suffer any major injuries. After the incident, some fans accused the NYPD of taking videos of the crowd during the concert, leading to speculation that the police were spying on the attendees.
However, NYPD Deputy Commissioner John Adams has dismissed these claims, saying, “Let them keep complaining, but the NYPD was not taking videos of Drake concertgoers.” Adams also noted that the police were present at the concert to ensure the safety of the fans and that they had no other purpose.
Despite the NYPD’s denials, the incident has sparked a debate about the police’s role in monitoring concerts and other public events. In the meantime, fans are still praising Drake for his quick response to the fan’s fall, which could have had much more serious consequences.
