Memphis cop assaults woman who tried to eat hot dog after he told her not to

A Tennessee police officer was apprehended and subsequently relieved of duty after he allegedly assaulted a woman — over a hot dog.

Ralph Confer, of the Memphis Police Department, was on duty at Regional One Health medical center on Sept. 20, a day during which employees were holding a cookout in a police holding area. A medical technician who was also on duty asked if she could have a hot dog from the barbecue and one employee there told her she could.

Confer, however, told the woman she could not have a hot dog, WREG reported. She left, but came back later and asked a second person if she could have a hot dog, and was told “yes” by that employee.

But when Confer saw the woman fixing herself a plate, the police officer allegedly walked up to her and slapped the hot dog bun out of her hand, telling the woman she couldn’t have any food and had to leave through a back door.

The woman said she couldn’t leave through the back door and had to leave through the front, according to WHBQ, but Confer allegedly wouldn’t let her. As he tried to “corral her out the back door,” the police officer is accused of picking the woman up, causing her to hit her head on cabinets.
