Selfie Scandal During Music Video Shoot: Berlin Police Officer Faces Consequences

Shindy's new music video for the song "Prototyp," featuring Massiv, sparked a lot of conversation even before its release. Clips showed the rappers in a flashy yellow Lamborghini Aventador SV Roadster, slowly rolling over a bridge, followed by a crowd of cheering youths. It sounded like the typical, over-the-top rap video glamour. But then came the shock moment: A police car appeared, stopped the ride, and officers surrounded the expensive sports car. Traffic backed up, and a drone filmed everything from above. What looked like a well-staged scene was actually a real police operation on the Swinemünder Bridge in Mitte. The control shown in the video really took place!
An Officer in Fan Mode
But then came the twist that no one expected! After the video was released, another TikTok video circulated, recorded by Shindy himself. It shows a police officer standing next to the Lamborghini, casually chatting with the musicians, and then doing something incredible: He pulls out his smartphone! Yes, you heard right. It seems the officer is a true gangsta rap fan and just wanted a cool selfie with Shindy and Massiv. The rappers posed visibly amused for the snapshot, even Shindy, known for his laid-back coolness, couldn't help but grin. And as if that wasn't enough, you can hear the officer say: "Another 15 minutes okay..." Apparently, Shindy and Massiv were allowed to continue their shoot, even though they probably didn't have a filming permit. An officer on duty bending the rules for a fan photo? That's the stuff viral scandals are made of!
The Internet Explodes: Cheers or Outrage?
This scene, of course, immediately made waves on the internet. Opinions are widely divided. Some users were absolutely thrilled and found the Berlin police officer super likable. A little fan moment in the workday, they thought, you can let that slide! Others, however, were stunned and demanded harsh consequences for the officer. A police officer must remain professional, no matter who is in front of them, they argued. The debate rages on!
The Consequences: Trouble for the Selfie Cop?
But the matter has a serious catch. While the internet is still debating, the Berlin police do not find the incident amusing. A spokesperson for the authority confirmed that the officer's superior is aware of the videos. And now it gets serious: Disciplinary measures against the officer are being considered. What was a brief fan moment for the officer could now have serious professional consequences.
