Man in Virginia holds four bikers at gunpoint for 'trespassing'

A group of black bikers were held at gunpoint by a white homeowner in Spotsylvania, Virginia claiming they were trespassing on private property.

Terrifying footage filmed on June 14 shows the man point his loaded rifle at the bikers who parked at the side of a road for a quick rest.

The filmer, who wishes to remain anonymous, tells his friend to call the police and report the man for brandishing a firearm.

After the bikers and the homeowner debate on whether the residency is correctly labelled a "private address" one of the group say: "I guess you've just been waiting all day to shoot some black people."

The filmer wrote on a Facebook post: "Myself, three other friends on bikes and one in a car were riding around on Sunday, June 14. We pulled into the neighbourhood where three of the guys grew up and stopped at the cul-de-sac to stretch and plan our route home.

"This guy came walking down his driveway with his weapon aimed at us the entire time. Police were called and he has been arrested for brandishing. Be careful out there. It's a crazy world we live in."

He later told Newsflare: "He was charged with 5 counts of brandishing a firearm. None of us has ever encountered anything even remotely close to this."
