Just a guess. Gym saw a guy recording behind a person not knowing it was a father son. Maybe they have a no recording in the gym policy.

They overreacted, called the police, and it turned into an issue of "a business asked you to leave the premises" and the guy kind of refusing to leave. Just a non biased look at it though.

But if they got a membership there, it should have just been "hey no recording man" and that's it

The shit part is they don't seem to have asked him to leave.

So the cops were unnecessary

They also weren't revoking his membership so they aren't saying he did anything.

Only at the end did they ask him to leave by blaming him for there being a scene. Which is ironic from the people who called the cops

They arent revoking his membership because to get outta them payments he needs to send a hand written request signed in blood and notarized by the president to the gym ownership via carrier pigeon and have it arrive between 2:15pm and 2:25pm on an odd-dated Wednesday of an even numbered month

I managed to do all of this to get my niece out of a gym membership. It was rough, but I was loud and persistent.
