Allegations:
Murray was going to volunteer at a community center in the Uptown neighborhood. He had parked his car in a nearby lot when a police officer walked up to the driver's side door of Murray's car. He asked for Murray's driver's license, which Murray provided. Another officer arrived, and the officers asked Murray why he was there. Murray said he was planning to volunteer at a nearby community center. The officers told Murray to get out of his car. One of the officers took Murray's driver's license and returned to his unmarked police car, while another officer made Murray turn around and stand against his car to be searched. Murray complied. One of the officers asked if he could search Murray's car, to which Murray objected. Despite his objection, the officers searched the car. The officers did not find anything illegal on Murray or in his car.
