It feels more like the media got this wrong instead of an individual or the production company getting it wrong. A drugged up unarmed street vendor became belligerent when filming on his street cut into is profits. Social media then enhanced the story with violence, extortion, and guns. Because there are no fact-checkers in the payroll anymore, the media ran with what social media was saying… conservative media REALLY ran with it, because they like painting Baltimore as a gun-crazy city. Many even falsely listed David Simon as a producer on the series. His responses on Twitter have been fun to read.
