A viral video posted on Only in Dade Tuesday shows an intense traffic stop that ended with a singer being pulled out of a car and handcuffed in Sunny Isles Beach after police said she refused to get out and was driving with a counterfeit diplomatic license plate.
The woman, identified as 32-year-old Ceceilia Mercardo, is a singer who goes by the name Sessi and has over 195,000 Instagram followers.
Sunny Isles Beach Police, however, released a statement about the traffic stop and video, saying it doesn’t capture the full incident.
