YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

POCATELLO — Pocatello Police Chief Scott Marchand held a news conference Monday regarding a man who was arrested while filming an FBI facility.

The man uploaded a YouTube video a week after the incident on June 20. The video shows a verbal exchange between a Pocatello police officer and footage of the exterior of the FBI building on Police Road and Yellowstone Ave.

The nearly six minute video shows the officer questioning the man until the situation between them escalates and leads to an arrest.

The man identified in the video is named Sean Johnson. Court records show Johnson was arrested for misdemeanor resisting or obstructing on June 12, the date authorities say the footage was shot.

During the Monday news conference, Marchand repeated several times that the department was called for complaints about suspicious activity near the FBI building.
