Overview

• Newly released police body‑camera footage shows Broward County deputies handcuffing Marcus Morris, seating him in a wheelchair, and placing leg shackles at Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International Airport on July 27.
• Officers told Morris he could not walk due to agency policy and described the leg restraints as a new policy before wheeling him to a patrol car.
• The arrest executed Nevada warrants tied to about $265,000 in alleged unpaid casino markers, including $115,000 to MGM Grand and $150,000 to Wynn Las Vegas.
• Morris spent roughly two days in the Broward County jail after being booked on fraud and insufficient‑funds charges before wiring repayment that led to the case being dropped this month.
• Morris later criticized police and Las Vegas officials on social media, saying he could have paid if warned, and the video has prompted questions about the deputies’ restraint policy.
