  1. Mr. Goodhi © says:

    Yes you can,

    news crews do it all the time.

  2. Alex says:

    yes as long as you don’t record people in their houses…..

    you can record police arresting someone…

  3. andythefan says:

    As my friend the professional photographer would say: Yes, it is completely legal, if it is in a public area it is legal to take pictures, record, film, etc.

    Even if police try to stop you, you should have every right as long as they remain on public property. One of the only exceptions would be if by doing so you are endangering a life.

    Wait…you’re talking about in America right? :D

  4. DANBOSPD says:

    You can if your state is a one party consent state. If you are in Illinois – it is a two party consent state (with minor exceptions) and you would be in violation of the law – recording audio. Video is not a problem.

    We have our own cameras though – so we keep the citizens honest during our encounters – they play dirty sometimes.

  5. barbadenieve says:

    Yes, but the officer can confiscate the video and or audio recorder.
