WikiLeaks Truck Owner Arrested For Photographing Cops; Image Deleted 26 Apr 2012 Metropolitan Transit Authority police arrested a man for photographing them at Penn Station in New York City this afternoon – deleting his photo – before releasing him from a jail cell an hour later. Clark Stoeckley was issued a summons charging him with "engaging in threatening behavior." "I was walking through Penn Station and I came across these MTA cops with semi-automatic weapons," he said in a phone interview with Photography is Not a Crime. "I stopped to take a photo and the cop came up to me and arrested me. I asked, 'why am I being arrested?' 'Because you're a dick,' the officer responded."
