Del City resident tells council police repeatedly ran stop sign, seeks investigation

Bobby Reynolds told the Del City Council he has video evidence showing police officers running a stop sign at 24th and Vicki and that two separate Internal Affairs complaints he filed were closed as not sustained. "He explained it, and he also said that he runs stop signs all the time and laughed about it," Reynolds said, referring to an exchange with a captain he reported to.

Reynolds said he provided two instances and a witness to the department but that investigators did not contact that person. He told the council the pattern of drivers failing to stop includes a school bus and that the situation makes him feel unsafe in Old Town. He said he had been directed through several offices—city manager, police leadership, district attorney and the attorney general—without a timely resolution and that state-level investigators told him a review could take weeks or months.

Council members did not take immediate action during public comment. The complaint drew attention during the public input portion of the meeting; the city manager and police leadership were present elsewhere on the agenda and did not announce any new investigative steps during Reynolds' remarks. Reynolds requested the council have the witness interviewed and said he would make additional video evidence available. The council did not announce a formal referral or an internal affairs reopen at the time the speaker finished.

Next steps: the transcript does not record any vote or formal direction by the council on Reynolds' complaint; the matter remains a citizen allegation on the record.
