Meanwhile, Schröder himself was instructed to get out slowly and with his hands raised. “When I was with them, they put my arms down and handcuffed me. But also really jerky. And I think to myself: Huh, what happened?” said Schröder, who finally stood in front of the police officers in white tennis socks.
Why without shoes? “I just had my NormaTec on the back (computer-aided massage device that is used for quick recovery of legs, hips and arms, editor’s note.) connected and treatment done,” says Schröder.
You were ultimately surrounded by “20,25,30 cars”. “Well, really alert. I see shotguns, pistols, uzis and have no idea what kind of guns they had. It was like being a criminal doing something. That was crazy. I’ve never seen anything like it.” (DATA: All tables of the NBA)
