Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are under fire for their use of a police escort under non-emergency circumstances, which is against the law in the state of Arizona.
Phoenix Police Department spokesman Trent Crump denied officers from their police department were involved in escorting Kardashian and West to a pre-Super Bowl event on Saturday.
Each motorcycle involved in their barricade had their lights flashing, Daily News reports. It’s illegal for non-emergency vehicles to flash “red or red and blue lights” on the highway.
Photos of the escort were first published by x17online, which revealed their escort motorcycles taking up several lanes.
“That was not done by us, but they could hire private security or off-duty officers,” said Crump. He also said off-duty officers could use their lights “depending on department policy.”
West joined Rihanna for a surprise appearance during her set at the DirecTV Super Bowl party on Saturday night.
