Moise Morancy saw a man on a bus touching a 15-year-old girl and decided to step in, but he ended up getting arrested when police arrived before a black sergeant released him.

According to Morancy, who posted the entire story on Facebook, he was sitting on the bus when he started to make inappropriate moves on the young girl sitting next to him: “I’m sitting at the back of the bus when this drunk guy gets on, saying all types of sexual shenanigan to this little girl sitting next to me. At first he started caressing her hand and I saw how uncomfortable it made her…so she let go and put her hands in her pocket. He then proceeded to forcibly do it again. In the process of doing so, he hit my knee and I told him ‘Yo, bro. Don’t touch me.'”

But that just seemed to set the man off, as he shouted, “I can do whatever I want you black piece of s***!”

Not wanting to cause a scene, Morancy backed off, but when the man started to touch the young girl’s leg, he knew he had to step in. “Yo, my ni**a! Don’t f******* touch her again! You heard? Cuz if you do, We gon’ problems!” he told the man.

“I’m a real ni**a, so try me,” the man replied, reaching for his pocket and lunging.

Morancy defended himself by hitting the man in the face, nose, and neck before asking the others on the bus to help him restrain the man. No one helped, and when police arrived, they arrested Morancy for assault despite his attempts to explain the circumstances.

It wasn’t until Odeh Hammoudeh stepped in that Morancy was released.

“Shortly after this black police officer who was the Sergeant opened the door, congratulated me and ordered to release the handcuffs. To see a black man in a position of power right the wrongs, gave me a little bit of hope for the N.Y.P.D. As I always say not all cops are bad. The good ones just need to step up,” Morancy wrote.
