Rapper #Afroman had his Ohio home raided by the Adams County Sheriff's Office in 2022. He has created a song, called "Will You Help Me Repair My Door," about the incident. In the video for the song, he uses clips from his own security cameras along with shots of official documents like the search warrant. The PoPo also stole $400 which is also shown in the video...before the cops cut the feed.
