Hill said in a Tuesday post on the social platform X, "Where all the internet cops now".
The Miami-Dade Police said the officers' failure to appear was “an oversight” and “the matter will be handled administratively.” Still, the department defended issuing Hill the tickets.
“A citation dismissed due to this reason does not indicate that the citation held no merit,” the agency said in a statement.
Police body camera video from the September stop showed Hill appeared to speed past two motorcycle officers who were monitoring traffic on a road outside the stadium. They pulled over his McLaren sports car and one tapped on his window. Hill, 30, handed the officer his driver's license, but told the officer repeatedly, “Don’t knock on my window like that." He then put his window back up.
Their verbal exchange escalated and the officers soon pulled him from the car, forcing Hill face-first to the ground. The officers cursed at Hill but he did not resist their physical force or strike at them in the video. He did tell one officer, “Don’t tell me what to do.”
Hill was eventually stood up, but then an officer dragged him into a sitting position on the curb after he said a knee injury made that difficult.
After about 30 minutes, Hill was issued citations and allowed to enter the stadium.
One officer was placed on administrative duty and an internal affairs investigation was launched. No results have been released.
