Acorn Scares Cop Into MAG DUMPING Handcuffed Suspect!  

"they found no criminal wrong doing" imagine a civillian unloading at someone in a car and their defense is "uhh i heard a acorn hit a car it was self defense" im sure that would work

I bet at a lot of police academy recruits are going to be told upon graduation, "Don't get acorned".

His FEAR made him a danger to eveybody around him wile the other cop backed up a BAd play, like they do.

He resigned 30 seconds after he got back to the station... but the cool thing is the man in the car pretty much has his pick of EVERY lawyer in the state to sue the officer and station for this one.

I was a police officer until 2015. I had to quit because none of the things I were seeing that were going to become problems were addressed. I would point stuff out, write other officers up, and nothing was _ever_ done about it, if something was, it was usually me getting a verbal warning to not cause problems. What is happening in the US is what happens when people stop giving a damn. If the justice system truly doesn’t care anymore, why should it’s citizens be expected to abide by it? If the police officers aren’t held accountable and allowed to just walk away, what does that say about the kind of society we live in? When I joined up in the late 90’s I was told, the entire department was told that we were to be held to a higher standard _because_ we were cops, not _exempt_ from any and all standards.

I thought it was hilarious that the cop *immediately* goes to saying he's hit, and then barrell rolls away 😂

Most suppressed firearms are still very loud and would not be mistaken for a nut bouncing off your car roof. That (ex)cop has watched too many movies.

We have allowed police unions to not only remove bravery as a requirement for cops, but actually make that quality frowned upon. This is the inevitable result.

“The squirrel is gonna sue.” 😂😂😂

Dude is like Tackleberry from Police Academy lol

I’m still waiting for the video that shows the cops realizing the guy didn’t even have a gun.

(sarcasm) I love the end of that report. They found no wrongdoing because he "felt" he was in danger. If that's how everything is done, no wonder US police is so messed up.

Yea just sitting in the car, handcuffed, and just having the care lit up like that. Dude is very lucky he did not get hit.

more background info on the officer involved, he was a Ranger, Army Special Forces. which has led some people to think he had a not-so-minor PTSD episode during this encounter.

Ex Special forces my 👁. Special needs more like 🤣🤷🏻‍♂️

I think that cop was smoking crack, super paranoid.

This is like a comedy skit or movie. Idk how in the world he thought that was a gun shot and that he himself was shot.

This happened right next to where I live. If I can see this spot from my front porch. I remember driving home one day back in November and there was what seemed like every cop in the county was at this residence.

Pretty sure the cop was in the military for years prior to joining the force, so he should know what a gun, suppressed or otherwise, sounds like, assuming someone you've searched and cuffed behind their back could actually shoot at you.

4:55 that second pause at the exact same spot irrationally infuriated me😂

Cops need more wellness checks

8:22 all i hear is Arnold Schwarzenegger now 😂

its a shame cops don't face the same penalties as the rest of us

The guy must've only heard suppressed gunfire in movies. In real life, it still sounds like gunfire, just slightly smaller caliber gunfire.

That fact that police unions and chiefs won't let us gather data on their killings and mistakes is VERY telling.

I thought he was a coward, but after learning that he served in the Middle East and possibly has PTSD, I feel bad for him. He shouldn't be a police officer either way.

It's Florida.Nuff said.

That's some serious PTSD.

Cops like him are why I have to wait a year before going to the academy as a veteran with PTSD. 😢

The worst part of the whole thing is that they let him resign, which means he can still get a job at a different department, probably the next town over.

welcome to our esteemed police force. Trained to mag dump and ask questions later.

Let's just all thank God it was not a Chestnut tree... those things are nature's Shrapnel.

15 to 18 rounds in most service pistols

This took place in the part of Florida that actually is part of The South.

Cop go's nuts over nuts😂😅

Truly an America moment

Deputy should’ve gotten charged, and he definitely seemed like he had a PTSD episode

The deputy was a VET who had returned from a tour in the Middle East prior to joining the police- so many think he should have known what gunfire sounded like given his deployment and that this probably was a case of bad PTSD

One thing that gets me, and I’m no expert, but I’m pretty sure police vehicles have bulletproof panels in the doors and bulletproof windows. So even if someone shot from the inside, the bullet likely wouldn’t travel outside of the vehicle.. on top of that, opening fire on the car would be useless bc the bullet wouldn’t enter the vehicle, which is likely what saved the suspect..

These are the type of people us Americans pay there salaries the whole police force needs to be changed for the better and more rigorous training and competence tests this is absolutely unacceptable there is no reason to do this u cannot even barely hear the acorn fall glad this guy quit but he needs to be charged aswell with discharging a firearm for no reason and attempted murder

You're not on fire Ricky Bobby!

If I'm ever attacked by an armed acorn I'll call these 2 cops.

The Sargent is also very dumb. How the hell do you not hear any shots fired, then hear another officer start yelling "shots fired, shots fired!" And just decide to open fire randomly.

Watching a reaction of a reaction...good times

Dave, he was not under arrest, he was being questioned basically by his superiors to his side of the story.. you do not get a lawyer for that.

on the lady cop she has to believe in him and respond the way she did. if she doesnt and its real they and others could be killed. WE know hes a idiot but no one ever thinks thier coworker is this stupid. i have had some dumb coworkers but i hve never thought one would think a acorn hitting a car was a gun shot, think they were hit and unload a mag into it. thats something no one has ever though was possible till after not before.

Yeah like they said, he was already patted down and it's like your can hide a pistol that's big enough to secure a suppressor to. Anyone who has been in the back of a cop car knows that there's no way you can get to the front or trunk section when you're in the back. That might be the most incompetent cop duo I've ever seen. I hope the female officer was at the very least demoted to a desk job because she shouldn't be allowed on the streets acting like that.

IMO, the two officers are not solely to blame for the blunders, I also criticize the poor training they received before becoming officers. Most US Sheriff's Departments train their officers to react accordingly to such situations to prevent innocent bystanders from being injured or killed. There was no disciplined reaction from the two officers, they allowed their adrenaline to undermine any training they supposedly had. Most police vehicles are made to withstand normal gunfire, even if the shooting is coming from the inside of the vehicle. They should've hesitated to fire their weapons, found some cover, and let their emotions settle to rational levels so they could better deal with the issue. Humans are a curious species. When multiple officers are outside a suburban residence, and questioning the occupants who dwell there, it's considered normal for the neighborhood locals to come out and see the commotion. Also in this digital phone age, bystanders are more prone to place themselves in the middle of the situation and video stream any racial mishaps from the officers. I just thank God that no one came out to the street with their heads filled with curiosity and a video phone in their hands, because these two officers blatantly pulled out their weapons and blindly started shooting until the magazines were emptied. A lot of deaths and injuries were averted just by pure chance.

Whether it was PTSD or not they both started firing recklessly without actually making sure somebody was actually firing a gun. And I think they both should be charged but of course they won't be, so now the only thing I hope for is that guy gets paid if he decides to sue them.

Remember the cop knew there was a suppressor on the guys gun.

So glad younguys reacted to this. Thank you for the amazing reaction.

PTSD? The police officer was never in combat

This is how smart our American cops are.

Police in the US have "qualified immunity" so they're not impeded in their jobs, like shooting unarmed people, so they get 3 days off without pay instead of jail time like an average person. The SIG 320 holds 17 rounds in the magazine standard. The SIG 320 Compact (which is probably what the female sergeant was armed with) holds 15 rounds, but since she's not concealing it, she probably had 17 round magazines, too. So if they both emptied one magazine into the car, they fired 34 rounds.

this is why not everyone should own a gun

"ahhhhhnlinjnaskdfktahhhhhh Get to the Choppa"

You’re telling me I haven’t been watching office gays this whole time?

Angry Cops on RU-vid, a former Marine drill instructor and currently a police officer did a pretty deep dive about the incident and the military background of the officer. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_9I0t_dGF0E.html It was said that he was either an officer attached to a Special Forces unit for two deployments or an officer in the Special Forces for two deployments in Afghanistan, but he never was in combat. So either he was a desk jockey or the Special Forces team made him stay behind because he was a liability. So he used that "experience" to get on as a deputy. A lot of police departments won't even look at an applicant unless they have military service or a degree in some sort of law enforcement.

"So anyway, I started blasting."

You never know.... if it's a Trojan Acorn.

They investigated themselves and found no wrongdoing!! 😉🙃

How did this dude make it through the academy?

Did I really just watch a video that has censored out the gun, the car, and the gunshots? In 6 months every second of every video will be blurred out.

If that Cop didn't have mental problems before. He's 100% got them for the rest of his life!

i hope so much they get this into GTA 6

The Penguins of Madagascar were in the tree eating popcorn and watching the show (I think Rico threw the acorn).

He probably has PTSD from military service?

They said the girlfriend told police her boyfriend had a suppressed firearm (gun with a silencer). Chrisfuller2069 is correct in his statement that a suppressed firearm is still louder than an acorn hitting the roof of a car ( acold suppressor sounds louder than a warm or heated from several recent shots) but, circumstances are that the subject was in the back of a police car with plastic covers over everything and bullet resistant glass so all those variable and the added issue of the alleged PTSD diagnosis given after full evaluation of deputy. Now all that said, "He F***ked Up", thank God no one was hurt and only the underwear, pants and socks of the subject were destroyed.

This is a perfect example of why there needs to be better training for police in the US. Including high stress that tests officers reactions to situations like this. In my own home state it only takes one week longer to become a cop than it takes to become a barber. A total of six months training.

Deputy Hernandez needs to be deported back to Cuba ASAP.

This is the good old USA he will definitely have a long career in law enforcement.

Even a suppressed 9mm pistol still produces 120 db. It's loud as hell. It should be pretty obvious. How loud could that acorn be? But yeah, fired clearly. Honestly should have criminal charges. If a non-cop had done the same thing, they'd be in jail.

Even if there was some how or some way that the suspect had gotten a suppressed weapon in the unit with him, the fact is a cold suppressor, suppresses nothing and a hot suppressor is still going to make more noise tan an acorn bouncing off a car.

8:44 the suspect was wielding a suppressed (silenced) hand gun in the picture he sent to his girlfriend. Makes the cop's reaction barely more understandable but regardless, the officer has no business wearing a badge.

I hadn’t heard about this.

Hey im from south florida and them acorns are no joking matter

Many laugh .. but that deputy clearly suffers from PTSD

Any non cop would be in jail. End qualified immunity innit, don't matter if your a cop or politician. You obey the laws

Officer Hernandez needs to switch to Decaff.

I'll take Office Blokes over something like Dem Damn Dudes.

Ive been waiting to watch this cause i know im gonna be really mad but here we are

so if I'm walking down the street and hear a noise that I mistake for gunfire and pull out my weapon and unload on a parked car will I also not go to jail?

Both of those morons need to be in jail. Unfortunately, it will never happen. Reckless endangerment and attempted murder. She won't face a thing and he'll be a cop again in a couple years. Absolutely disgraceful.

def a ptsd instance

Suspect is OK, and now he will be rich

they also believed the suspect had a silenced weapon?

Yeah I'm making a unprofessional assessment of this video and realizing that guy is not qualified to be a police officer at all.

Shooting a gun at somebody because you "think" something, rather that waiting until you "know", by definition means you shot without knowing anything except your idea about what's going on based on the sound of an acorn and nothing else. Any cop who starts shooting before knowing they are under threat should not be on the force. It reminds me of the stupid cop who shot the lady who had called police about a possible assault. He pulls up to the scene, and when the caller approaches the cops car to talk to him, he shoots her for no reason except his own unfounded fear. He "thought" he was in danger from an unarmed lady approaching his car. I think he's in prison now, convicted of criminal stupidity.

I’m reacting to reactors reacting to a reaction of an officer who had a horrible reaction. 🤯

The Office Gays? Oh, you mean a meeting of OB Mike's fan club. He's the "Silver Fox", after all.

Crap! This thing makes me ashamed of our police and their level of training and preparedness. This guy was a snowflake with a gun and his (the female) TO is even worse, shooting toward a fellow officer, almost blindly! They both should have lost their jobs.

I've watched 20+ reactions to this idiotic display. I can't stop laughing!

*I don't realiy blame the 2nd cop because she heard the 1st cop guy gun fire and him calling out l am hit. So right there it's understandable thanks to the first cop, the situation has become real for her, and having to put down covers fire or quickly trying to eliminate the beliefs threat, to protect her believe shot partner even though she almost shot him as well, lol.*

CHA CHING! marties girlfriend!

Arcon Schwarzenegger

I will continue to laugh at the memes but he clearly had some lingering ptsd from the military and should’ve seen someone about his nerves. You never know he could’ve had his convoy hit with explosives when active duty which may have left him with flashbacks.

thats ptsd for you.

What a goof

Just sayin', no clips were featured in this video, btw.

Typical cops in the USA
