The Paris Olympics were a jubilant time for Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry, as he led the Americans to a victory over France in the gold medal game on Saturday.
However, Curry’s wife Ayesha, his mother Sonya and Warriors teammate Draymond Green were involved in an intense incident with police officers in Paris.

A video from The Hollywood Fix showed Sonya Curry confronting one officer saying, “you will not sleep well.” Off to Sonya’s left, Ayesha Curry and Green are talking with officers. Ayesha is holding one young child in a baby carrier in front of her and another is holding her hand.
In one instance, Ayesha appeared to be wiping away tears as Sonya tried to explain the situation they were facing with the officers.
“Look, they won’t let us go back over there where we came from,” Sonya said. “They won’t let the driver come here, and they won’t let us go back over there.”
