Zebulon police chief Jonathan Hemphill is facing criticism over his treatment of other Georgia police officers during a traffic stop in a neighboring town on Aug. 26. Bodycam video shows Hemphill getting heated after confronting two Molena police officers for pulling him over for dark window tint and an alleged “ghost tag.”

I hope Hemphill will be a "Former" Chief.

Atlanta news stations aired footage of the traffic stop and alleged that Hemphill retaliated against the MPD officers by blocking their emergency radio channel. The ZPD and MPD shared an emergency radio channel but after Hemphill was pulled over in Molena, the city was blocked from using the frequency.  Molena was forced to ask to use the Pike County Sheriff’s Office emergency radio channel.
