Tyler Perry is receiving a little support with his claim that he was racially profiled by Atlanta police this week. A man named Malik Kadeem claims he witnessed the incident, and tells TMZ that the two officers appeared to get upset when Perry didn’t roll down his window immediately after he was asked. Kadeem adds that the officers were giving the movie mogul a “hard time” until an African-American officer recognized Perry and took control of the situation. Perry has alleged that he was pulled over by police after making an illegal turn, and harassed by two white officers.

The Hollywood director says a black officer eventually arrived on scene and after speaking with his fellow officers, decided to let Perry go without a ticket. Perry went on to write on his Facebook page that “racial profiling should be a hate crime investigated by the FBI.” Atlanta police have since launched an internal investigation into the alleged incident.
