Basketball player LeBron James posted, then deleted, a tweet attempting to single out an officer from the recent police shooting in Columbus, Ohio, in which he tried to rally his supporters to dox and retaliate against the officer in question, as reported by Fox News.

The footage showed the entirety of the chaotic scene as police arrived to break up a fight between two black teenage girls.
