The Miami-Dade Police Department told TMZ, its officers broke protocol to give LeBron James special treatment.
They helped the NBA star skip traffic in order to get to a Jay Z concert.
Miami-Dade PD initially denied involvement in the police escort but a representative for the department told TMZ its officers were the ones who accompanied LeBron to the Jay Z show.
Apparently LeBron was stuck in standstill traffic at 191st street Friday night and its officers escorted him to the Sun Life Stadium on 199th street a total of 8 blocks.
The rep told TMZ, "This should not have happened."
The department is reportedly still looking into which officers were involved and will determine what punishment, if any, is appropriate.
Sources say Jay Z was refusing to start the concert without LeBron present, so police determined it was in everyone's best interest to get LeBron there ASAP.
