The NYPD officer who was filmed yelling at an Uber driver for honking at him has come out and publicly apologized for his behavior.

“People shouldn’t be treated that way. I let my emotions get the better of me and I was angry,” the officer, Det. Patrick Cherry, told NBC New York. “My intention was to be courteous and then we got into an argument. There was no intention to berate or hurt deeply the driver.”
