<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A white man recently faced backlash for calling the cops on two black women who were relaxing poolside with a glass of wine at their apartment complex. He was seen on video following the women and is now blaming his autism for his controversial actions.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Nick Starr-Street hopped on social media to tell his side of the now viral video and maintain that he’s not a racist. “I’m autistic and lack a gauge that goes anywhere but 0 and 100,” Starr-Street wrote on Facebook. “When I see a lease violation, I call it out and do everything in my power to make sure it is resolved, no matter who is the person violating.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Starr-Street reportedly called police on two separate groups of black women at The Edition Apartments in Hyattsville, Maryland, for having glassware by the pool — a lease violation, according to Street-Starr, <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/man-facing-backlash-for-repeatedly-calling-police-on-black-women-pool-blames-autism-234229470.html">@yahoolifestyle</a> reports. One incident happened on June 22nd and the other on June 23rd.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The women who say he harassed them obviously feel his actions are racially motivated. “This white man literally stalked us from his apartment for damn near a mile just cause we were at the pool drinking wine and taking pictures. Called the police and all&#8230;I cannot make this up smh,” said Gaelle Claude under a video she posted to Twitter.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In the first incident tweeted about on June 22, Felecia Soso claims her friends were hanging out at the pool when Starr-Street made a complaint about their glassware and music. He allegedly yelled at her friend and later recorded her friend on camera admitting that she had glassware.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Although a video shows that her friend agreed to get rid of the glassware, adding, &#8220;What else do I need to do for you to be comfortable?&#8221; Starr-Street immediately stopped the recording to show the video to the leasing office of the apartment complex.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When the leasing office took no action, Starr-Street then</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">reported the women to the Hyattsville Police Department. They reportedly sent two officers to the scene and later left after speaking with Soso and her friends.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“I see this stuff online but having this happen in person like BLATANT racism for NO reason at ALLLLLLLLL,” Soso wrote on Twitter. “I’ve honestly seen SO MANY TYPES of racism&#8230;but we weren’t doing ANYTHING BUT EXISTING.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It was Claude’s incident that went viral because of Starr-Street&#8217;s alleged harassment of the women. However, he says he was following the pair after they allegedly attacked him and once again used his autism as an explanation.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The women also had receipts of what happened at the pool and said they did not attack him.</span></p>
