"This type of stuff is still going on," he said in the video. "You know why the lady called the police on me. I didn't give her any reason to believe I was a threat, but she perceived me as a one."
Alebert said he made her look like a racist.
"I'm Spanish," Albert said. My boyfriend is black. It's nothing racist about it. It took us so long to get these two houses boarded up"Albert said people used the house to do drugs before the city finally boarded it up. She didn't want the boards removed.
