A TikTok creator says a night out in New York City turned into a two-hour ordeal after a bouncer allegedly confiscated his REAL ID at the entrance to a Brooklyn venue. The creator also claims responding New York Police Department officers declined to intervene, even though he told them he had a flight home the following morning.
The videos, posted by TikTok user Chillguy123 (@chillguy123970), drew attention online as viewers debated whether venue staff should keep a customer’s identification and what role, if any, police should play in such disputes. The first video shows the creator speaking with an NYPD officer.
