Great coverage, but I thought the 2nd trooper was using his taser in drive-stun mode -- based on the switch activation at the start, and the press-move-press actions of the trooper for pain compliance. I don't know that they can safely use the launched barbs that close...

Hitchhiking is only illegal because the local governing law enforcement can't trust its own citizens to make safe decisions cross the road when safe too and choosing trustworthy people to ride with idk that's no place for the government to step in for, that dude didn't hit the officer he held his hands and they fell, dude had no clue why they were tussling tbh it went from normal convo to the floor rq for seemingly no reason other than the officer felt like he was too inept or incapable of using his eyes ears and feet just strange imo
When we broke down, we actually walked on the side of the freeway to avoid the hood at night. Knowing full well that a trooper would stop for us. And one did. He gave us a ride for about 17 miles to our exit in the better part of town. We told him that we would get lost and mugged off of the freeway, and he agreed. Saying it was his job to keep drivers safe.
That’s all this guy had to do. The officer would have gladly taken him to a safer area (within limits of destination). There was no reason whatsoever for the guy to come unglued like he did. Zero.
THAT PUNK WASN'T RAMBO AND THAT WAS JUST A TYPICAL HOLLYWOOD MOVIE THAT UNFORTUNATELY HAS ESCALATED THEIR BS ON THESE SUBJECTS. EVEN SYLVESTER STALLONE WILL TELL YOU THAT IT WAS JUST A SILLY MOVIE AND HE LOVES THE POLICE IN THE USA AND HE LOVES THE *USA AND TRUMP!*

That officer was lucky to have backup close by. Those unfortunate officers in desolate places like New Mexico (Officer Darian Jarrott ,. R.I.P.) , have no backup within a half hour sometimes. Luckily citizens and truck drivers will sometimes jump in and help the officer.
Jarrott was set up by the feds to deal with a dangerous subject on his own with no heads up about the situation. IMO the feds were an accessory in this instance, therefore they should be disbanded and replaced by a Cadre of selected state LEOs and Sherrifs representing the states and counties instead of the feds picking their own to represent themselves.
Wym he was lucky? The person he was tussling with never through a punch tried to choke him or anything the cop was kinda out of line with this one, he put himself in that hold lmao the guy was just stuck on top of him cuz the cop was holding his hand, maybe cops shouldn't try WWE moves they see on TV against some poor dude who doesn't have a car
The guy had a free hand the whole time if you need to rewatch it, the dude just did nothing let it play out, cops just kept using more force for no reason
@RANDOMNATION suspected of not being able to use basic human functions, some the 11b I know used to walk along interstate before redeployment or reups for training, dude the officer had no right to initiate that arrest, it's not texas where i10 has a 5 foot shoulder and 10 lanes completely filled with cars, it's light traffic with a huge shoulder he's fine
I would like to think that most people would .Cops are human beings with loved ones at home .I am almost 60 years old and I have never had any interactions with police other than going through a check point or in a charity drive put on by the police. I have never been pulled over or had a traffic ticket .I am a real desperado ...
I was in a situation like this near Sandusky, Ohio. A state trooper stopped and offered me a ride, I complied and he took me all the way to the outskirts of Toledo, Ohio. I wholeheartedly thanked the trooper for his kindness.
When i was 18, back in the late 90s, my stupid arse decided to pick up a friend and drive around for awhile drinking on a 6 pack. I do, looking back, consider that an act of evil despite that no one was hurt ... thanking God i did not hurt anyone. Anyway, around midnight, i dropped off my friend and was headed home when my car stalled out and would not start again. I was a good 15 miles from home on a pretty much deserted highway ... so i grabbed my last beer and started walking. I barely started when a cop passed and flashed his lights ... i chucked the beer as he was turning around but surely he did see that not to mention, looking back, i know i had to reek of alcohol. He asked me what happened and where i was headed and then he told me to get in the car .... he actually took me home (ran every red light too which i thought was cool .. no worries ... no one else was around to care). He gave me a lecture like a father would his daughter before letting me go into my home. It stuck too .... what he told me. I was playing stupid and things really should have and could have turned out much worse. This happened in Austin tx.
In all fairness, the trooper needs to take some martial art classes or some classes on how to keep his balance, this encounter could have had a different result had the subject been a wanted criminal/ felon....
I have personally have always found State Troopers to be helpful and for the most part, even friendly. I think Troopers everywhere deserve a lot of respect. They have a tough, lonely job.
I’ve had ONE interaction with a state trooper, and let’s just say I could have lost my license, paid a HEFTY fine, and had my car impounded due to the situation, and he wrote me a seatbelt ticket. I was on the way home from work, my music was too loud, I was driving too fast and not paying attention to my surroundings so I was speeding in a construction zone. I was 17, just a kid, and soon thereafter was shipping off to boot camp. The dude was cool as a cucumber, and it helped that I wasn’t heckling him. Mutual respect goes a LONG way.
That is because they are often trained a lot more extensive then your typical city cop or sheriff. Use to be that you had to be a certain height to be a State Trooper and they had to have military experience. Which a lot of State Troopers that get the job do have a military background.
Speak for yourself. You roll around with out of state tags and most of them screw you over the most they can both constitutionally and unconstitutionally. They know you wont go to court and fight it if you are out of state. It costs too much money and time. So the cops take advantage of it
Not a single car stopped to help once this jumped off! I know it's a risk, but one I think is worth taking to help protect the people that protect all of us. Thank God the dispatcher operating the camera was on the ball getting that backup to the Trooper right away.
No, not a good idea to stop right there or even pull over after the turn arounds. They're at the exit turnaround which there are 2 turnarounds for traffics. You take that chance stopping and running towards the officer, you also take the chances of either causing an accident or getting hit by a car. You got cars merging onto hwy 35 and then you got cars exiting hwy 35. Best way to stop is before the turnaround. But anyone who has passed them both, its already too late to stop. Thats why you see both officers pulled up on the exit turnaround to avoid traffic.
@@dangermanv6133 All good points, but I have never, and will never, drive past an officer who's fighting with someone. I've had occasion to render such assistance three times, and it's always been appreciated. YMMV.
It's not our job and at this point the majority of our country doesn't like the police enough to pis on fire to put them out police have made it a point to let us know that we cannot trust them so its in our best interest to just keep driving by and ignore the whole situation less chance of being a victim shot by scared police
As for the taser, it is possible the Trooper used the "drive stun" mode which is done by activating the taser and placing it against the subject's body. This can be performed with or without a prong cartridge attached or after a prong cartridge has been deployed. You see in the video that the second Trooper does place the end of the taser against the individual's body.
That’s what I’m thinking happened. Yes, a taser throws sparks, but only when the prong cartridge is deployed(the sparks are the cover of the cartridge being ejected out of the way and the prongs being ejected out of the cartridge towards the target. I’m this case since the original trooper was so entangled with the suspect, the second trooper would not be able to deploy the taser prongs without also hitting the original trooper too, so therefor the second trooper instead decides to use his taser in “Drive Stun” mode like any typical “Stun gun” pressed directly on the suspects body. So while a taser cartridge may not have been deployed, the taser may have been used as more of a stun gun pressed against the suspects body. But even then, that may not have even needed to happen, the 2nd trooper may have just said “stop resisting or you will be tased” or something along those lines while holding the taser near the suspects body getting ready to tease him and for once the suspect actually immediately complied so the taser didn’t need to be used… maybe…
The taser 7 or cq7 cartridges does not shoot out confetti like the m26 /26 cartridges do and yes the taser x3 x2 taser 7 and cq7 have a dive stun mode where you do not have too take the cartridges out like the m26 x26 or x26p.
I agree he may have used it that way. I saw it used that way in a crowded bar with a guy that was causing trouble and refusing the leave. A little juice and he decided to comply.
But the guy just arrived and now it's a 2 on 1, so seems like absolutely no need to be thinking taser at all.... understandable if still a 1 on 1 and losing the battle
I believe in freedom, but that doesn't mean you get to do whatever you want. Arrogance and entitlement is off the charts. Tired of seeing people fight other people or police and get let off easy.

I have to give a lot of credit to a dispatcher in saving my life, one who can detect the sound of an officer's voice in trouble; I was called to a restaurant where 6 suspects were causing a disturbance and damaged, upon arrival to the scene, the suspects were gone; since it was close to code-7 (lunch) I stayed on scene to take the report. I was unaware several of the suspects had returned through a side door and they attacked me from behind. Being on code 7, I had my radio on top of table, and it went flying, since the restaurant was packed, I threw out my arms and like a football player, prior to law enforcement drove them out of the restaurant, into the parking lot. With no radio to call for help, the fight was on, and I could only use one arm, since the other was holding tight on my service revolver, which the suspects were trying to get. I could not draw my weapon, to many other people in the parking lot standing around watching. A young girl who was in the restaurant with her family found my radio and by the grace of our Lord, she made her way through this this fight and held it up to me, where I grabbed it and called out a 999, yet before I could give location and the radio was taken from me. The dispatcher knew my voice and put out the call on all channels and surrounding departments; "999 officer in trouble", the code where everyone responds ASAP. Unknown to me, a state task force of several agencies was setting up to raid a house for narcotics. Within seconds unknown people were pouring in to help me, at first was scared, I was not made aware of this undercover team., then they started taking out their badges. Yes, I could have gone to my firearm during this fight, since I had my nose and jaw broken, several ribs broken, a large gash above my right eye blinding me and in need of stitches and a severe concussion, to the point of almost passing out. I spend several days in the hospital, more recovery at home and assigned light duty before returning to full duty. The city awarded the dispatcher and the small child who bought me my radio for saving my life.
@@JigglyWiggly69: Thank you, I wanted to go to sleep after one of the suspects kicked my head into a cement column, yet a voice kept telling me don't go to sleep or you will die. I still very grateful to this day for the dispatcher and the brave little girl who brought me my radio, how, only the Lord knows how she did.
My dispatchers actually got mad at me on occasions where I could be in high stress, people calling saying your officer is fighting with someone or whatever and I'm like I'm good here. They always said they couldn't ever tell if I was in trouble or not. Same flat monotone all the time. It served me well to keep my shit together at all times while on duty......and off for the most part. I could see what they're talking about though. Other officers would get louder or their tone would change. Apparently mine never did. Dispatchers are awesome and take so much crap for their officers!
@@jasonsimmons6684: I heard the modern officers did away with using codes, we had a code system, which must be mastered before ever getting into a patrol unit and our Dispatchers knew the codes as well, saves airtime; plus, if one work the streets long enough, one get to know the others on their squad and what their abilities are to handle calls. I didn't need Dispatch to advise me to back up another officer if I heard stress in his voice over the radio, if everything is Code-4, we chat for a few seconds, then back on patrol.
Being a state Trooper seems way more dangerous than just being an average cop. The cops show up in groups of six, troopers pull people over alone in the middle of nowhere.
i really cannot imagine being a cop without high level fight training, grappling and striking, no way. this should be a requisite of becoming a police officer.
I was a cop. In my day you didn't put a hand on us or you got your ass bent. Consequently MOST people unless they were drunk, high or crazy, did NOT make the grave mistake of touching or attacking one. Especially a cop working alone. All he has is himself, far from town, and real help was a LONG way away when a fight starts. IF you could get the word out. All this is obama's make them quit, jail them or kill them program he wanted since day one. When local policing is finally all destroyed or JAILED then he will get to create the 'National Police Force" he always wanted. An NPF answering to Washington alone and operating exactly like the Gestapo, KGB, Stasi Secret Police or FBI. They already don't miss many of the Nazi's tricks these days.
Problem is, even folks who seek out extensive martial arts training don't want to be cops. In a troop of 32 new cadets, I don't have more than 2-3 with any previous training and even then, it's only a year or two.
I agree this officer probably out weighed the offender by 30 to 40 pounds, should not have needed help, the only thing I'm not sure of, was the perp going for his gun and maybe the officer couldn't get top position because he was protecting his gun.😊🌏
@@hippopotaman075 that suspect knows wrestling and other martial art moves. See how he uses his body and spreads out his legs. I respect the officer working through the motions but officers need more hand to hand training including jujitsu. Could of gone south for the officer.
Agreed! It's actually safer for a suspect to be effectively restrained quicker..... Many years ago I got in a fight with a no-shit karate black belt....Somehow, I never hit him. He didn't hit me.....He let me throw punches and kicks until I was so worn out I could only glare at him, wheezing my lungs out, and with my hands on my knees to avoid falling down. He asked me if I was done.....I agreed. Years later, I was told by another for-real karate practitioner that I was fortunate to be fighting a highly skilled person.....Someone with lesser training would have hurt me. True story.....There is a point here......Cops need effective training to stop these fights before they become dangerous.
@@SyrupCanuck that was exactly what my comment said, i was agreeing with monkeyseemonkeydo. If the officer had a good grounding in some sort of training he would have been much better placed to counter the perp. But this officer has no fighting skills at all. Kind of strange for a officer. Don't you think.🤔😥🌏
My daughter was new to our city and got lost. She went to the nearest police station and asked if she could have a ride home. She gave him the address and the police officer kindly gave her a ride home. Most Police officers are willing to help when needed.
At no time does the officer have any duty to protect this man from himself or traffic. The man must be allowed to travel freely absent any complaint or observation of criminal activity. As long as he doesn't cross that solid white line and walk in the road he is completely legal on the easement. FREEDOM IS SCARY; DEAL WITH IT!
I’m always in awe of the state patrol dispatchers who manage to handle the call volume of MN highways, all while communicating with first responders, organizing inter departmental efforts , all while keeping the camera focused right on the incident that is occurring if available.💪
I hope the ladies on "The View" take notice of this..then praise the Officer....LOL! Of course Sonny Hoffman will call that White Officer a racist..LOL!
@@johnandspencer The taser also has the option to be used as a contact stun gun. Most people are familiar with it shooting out two prongs that embed in the suspect and Trail wires which carry the electrical current. This allows the taser to be used at some distance, however it also has contact prongs on the face of it that allows it to be used like a conventional handheld stun gun.
FYI narrator: The taser does not release "confetti" (called AFID tags) when it's used in drive stun (body contact) mode as it may have been used here. It only discharges AFIDs when you fire the darts out. And you most likely would not have seen those AFID tags anyway had they been released due to the long range of the camera shot.
I’m glad you said because I was going to add that. One correction though, they’re not ‘darts’; they’re barbed prongs. The narrator does “confirm there was no taser deployment” and technically he would be right. However, as you said, a drive stun was used to get this individual to comply.
Yes, the tags actually have a serial # printed on them so it can be determined who fired the taser shot. Each cartridge serial # is assigned to specific officers just for this reason.
Thank you, Minnesota, for allowing us to see these professional State Troopers in action. I for one am very grateful for all the State Troopers across this great land and respect everything that they do to keep us safe and secure as we travel the highways and byways of these United States of America. 🇺🇸
The Troopers protected the individual who was walking along the busy interstate. There are signs posted at every on-ramp that specifically states no slow-moving vehicles, pedestrians, nor tractors allowed on the interstate. As a CDL-A Commercial Truck Driver I understand this law. You ever heard of "suicide by Truck" where a mentally disturbed individual will step out in front of a moving Tractor-trailer that's doing 65mph fully loaded? Yea, it happens. So pedestrians need to stay off the interstates and freeways where traffic is moving at high speeds, including Commercial vehicles, and a pedestrian can easily get struck by oncoming, or outgoing traffic. It was very dangerous for this individual to be walking in a restricted area. So once again, thank you Minnesota State Troopers for saving lives. 👍👍👍
While hiking one day in New Hampshire's White Mountains, I came down the wrong trail and realized I was about three miles from where I had parked at the start of the hike. So I started walking on the highway in the direction of my car. A trooper pulled up beside me and told me that walking on the highway was prohibited for safety reasons. I apologized and explained that I knew of no other route to take. He told me to hop in his cruiser and gave me a ride to the parking lot where I had parked my car. He could have given me a citation and driven off.
What did the cop do right? Attacked a man because he refused to go with him? Well done cop, give him a medal, and he was a black man. It's good that these two aggressive creatures in uniforms didn't beat him up and didn't use a Taser
@@alexursus4719 They tased the kid. They couldn't beat him up (at least not at the scene) because the kid was an all around better fighter than both of them. They should have asked the kid if he needed a ride. If he said no, give the kid a ticket and let him go about his day.
I have lived in the TWIN CITY area for 53 yrs. From my experience the Minnesota Highway Patrol has the MOST competent and compassionate officers, but the "City" cops , not so much!
Lol kinda reminds me of my younger days when I used to hitch hike a lot, but I never had the issue of being thrown to the ground by any LEO, I usually had good relationship with them, up to and including being given a ride at least to the county line or a on ramp so "I'd be safe", but that was back in the '80's and ain't no way I'd try it now, too many cretins who would cut your throat for no reason
When I was a kid about 18 years old my car broke down on the freeway. And A highway patrol officer gave me a ride all the way to meet my dad at 1 o’clock in the morning. I appreciate them.
Unfortunately, today's law enforcement officers are of the opposite breed of ones years ago. New recruits aren't looking to help people, the more time that passes they make sure the good ones get weeded out. My father was a decorated officer who loved his community. Within a year of the war on drugs, realizing they had him destroying lives, and not helping anyone, he got a job helping addicts and their families. There's always an exception to the rule. But the "good guys" are not good anymore. The bad guys have not changed. Most importantly the vast majority of law abiding citizens are terrified of law enforcement. They'd be fools if they weren't.
They didnt really have much time between scuffle start and second officer arriving. Like 10 seconds. I'd have stopped, probably, unless it was dangerous traffic wise.
If I was a black man and I was convinced that the officer was going to kill me I could see why he might get " hands on". The reason it's always the same people might be because both black and white cops are more afraid of black men.
The guy may have not been "Tased" but the stun gun light was on, so it looked like he was stunned. He sure lay still even when they let go of him which is difficult to do with an Adrenalin rush. He was in the wrong and he did resist detention. LESSON: Don't walk on freeways or expressways.
The stop was not based on any actual law. So it must have been consensual. If the man wished to leave and the officer detained him without suspicion or cause then it was unlawful. The roadway is the area between the solid white lines. The man was walking in the "easement" alongside the roadway commonly used for emergency stops or slow moving vehicles.
@@arctictimberwolf At most he should have been wearing an orange reflective triangle to signal "slow moving vehicle" per Federal traffic regulations. Imagine a world where the public servant stops him not to effect arrest for some fabricated crime. But, instead to provide such safety equipment and perhaps a bottle of water. I am confident that a cheap vest would cost the tax payers less than what happened here.
@@AaronAlso , Sure that ain't a bad idea but the Road is the paved area between the solid white lines. He was walking on the Easement not the road. Those Cops were wrong to even approach the guy.
People have seen the news. We know what happens when you touch the untouchable race. It doesnt matter if they are trying to kill you or not. The media and the democratic party will come after you. So its every white person for themselves.
Me too...that statie...he slammed himself down pretty hard u can see his head bounce...of course his hat came off but it didn't protect anything anyway lol
For some reason, I expected the Trooper or the suspect to get a couple punches in but you can clearly see neither one of these men tried hurting the other, that's a win.
Oh fuck that! The trooper should have been punching him to help gain control. You are naive as fuck if you think a cop shouldn't punch someone in this situation.
Lmao nope, the cop grabbed his hand and pulled it toward him then when the purp put himself against the car, the cop decided in his infinite wisdom to try out some of the WWE moves he watched on TV and while holding his hand tried slamming on him instead fucked it up and the guy was just standing there lost as fuck while the cop holds his hand and takes himself to the ground and ofc the guy is glued to him, if he wanted the cop dead he had a free hand the whole time he could have swung or tried choking him while he was on the ground but he didn't sooo :^) this cops a clown
Drug paraphernalia was found on suspect walking on a busy interstate? Shocking. Just another self important, entitled brat, I’ll do what I want man/child that was never told no.
What's enlightening, and perhaps frightening, is the fact there are so many cameras watching our every move. Glad this worked out for everyone when it could have gone very bad, very quickly.
The highways are blanketed with cameras now. It’s great that if there are any issues, breakdown, accident, etc, the traffic control center can send appropriate help to the correct spot. Added plus, traffic cameras are HD now, so the video is amazing.
Currently, it's frightening only to those who have every intention of breaking the law. Those of us who live law abiding lives don't (yet) have anything to fear.
@@jb6712 You explained it in a nutshell. Clearly, the police and postal employee's and dmv employee's and all government employee's must have a lot to hide. P.S. law abiding citizen's have nothing to fear if their government fear's their citizen's.
I am very sorry to say the person walking on the highway behaved exactly like I saw many students behave in elementary public schools I served in the last 6 years. Disobeying rules and directions is commonplace and the person disobeying is treated as a special person who should receive rewards for later compliance of any level. Every action of the person walking was familiar to me, having witnessed it or experienced it in 3 different schools. I ended a 40 year career in education because of the refusal of the school district and administrators to enforce rules and staff with any negative consequences for disobedience. If this sounds negative, I am not telling the half of it. If it sounds dangerous to most of the school population, staff, and anyone these students interact with, that is correct.
@@Tulmara Many reasons, including being a Good Samaritan, assisting an LEO in distress plus the obvious bonus if he decides he wants a freeway-3-way 🛣🤼♂️👮♂️
Tasers have two modes. You'll see the Trooper appear to flip a switch near the head of the taser. That's him locking the cartridge and putting it in stun mode, which wouldn't eject the barbs, yet still deliver a shock to the suspect.
I can vouch that a 45 second grapple is like 5 minutes long, and the feeling of personal danger must be suppressed in favor of extreme alertness to every muscle flexion by the opponent. The Trooper can be extremely glad the individual kept the pack on, thus losing mobility, flexibility, and the artificial surge of having 50lb less weight to move. I am grateful that other units were so close. Normally, a Trooper may be many minutes from another State unit.
I want to commend you on your professionalism. I wish that more ppl who reports on these incidences would take the time to evaluate these and not automatically go straight racism and defund police officers. So THANK YOU!
@Mike Meza Your too grown for that. Its been 2 days since they last posted. Just let this comment section die. We all know that racism is a worldwide thing. And we all know stereotypes will never go away. Let's just enjoy the day. Find peace. And coexist in this world because there isn't any other choice.
Are you kidding! No one got hurt? That officer fell to the ground from waist high right on his back. My son fell like that once and broke 4 vertebrates in his back. Think again.
Yes they did….excellent work!no sense trying to respond to hypersensitive commenters……we have rules, laws, codes for reasons….if not we’d be a 3rd world country…great post!!
First off nobody in their right mind, walks on, or near a highway for safety reasons! Hopefully everyone is all right, and went home safely! God help us!
Plus it's illegal to walk on or ride a bicycle on the interstate. Unless your car is broken down on the interstate. There's signs all over stating that.
@@jona5517he was not walking on the highway. He stayed on the sidewalk when possible and only crossed when he needed to in short distances to get back on to the grass.
My big question is and I legally conceal carry at what point if I or another legally armed citizen are present and an officer of the law needs help should I step into help! I realize every situation is different but the law reads if anyone is in danger of great bodily harm or death seems to be our green light! I live in Las Vegas Nevada and have already been attacked by a nut once but knocked him out using my bare hands! I forgot to mention I’m a former golden glove boxer 45 years ago!
They all probably remembered their tickets, that's what I think of when I see something like this. I remember begging for a break, he said he's just doing his job. I just leave them to their work then.
Minnesota people are WONDERFUL human beings. Minnesota has been receiving a bad wrap lately. Criminals are becoming increasingly emboldened, dem policies and legislation passed has hurt Minnesota. Thx for this content.
Glad it worked out for the trooper! Hope they spend some time brushing up on techniques to take someone's balance in hand combat, not to mention "sweep the leg."
Don’t cops have murderers to go after instead of people walking and minding their own biz? What a waste of money to pay cops that don’t have nothing better to do than bother innocent people
If any of you are like me, and more or less afraid of confrontation, fighting, etc, if youre ever in a situation like this, where you want to help someone out, just stick a finger right in the eye of whoever youre trying to stop. Doesnt even have to be hard, but itll do the trick!
@@spikey2740 damn man, youre 'hard as a coffin nail!' Maybe you're right, my thought is, if he has at least the one eye, he can still look in mirrors for the rest of his loser life and remember his "big day?"
if someone is walking down the side of the freeway, let them. Not like the dudes running infront of traffic and actually creating a safety hazard. should sue.
I miss the old days when a simple tap on the side of the head with a sap usually made the bad guy pretty much obey what you told him to do. Without an argument.
Putting your hands on an Officer is by law ASSAULT. Escalating the situation to wrestling the officer doesnt make it any better. In your video you’re being empathetic and or sympathetic towards the guy committing the crime.
Are you KIDDING? That trooper did NOT body slammed himself. Cops are taught to NEVER wind up on the ground and last place at ALL, EVER, is UNDER the criminal. That is how you get KILLED. A lot of you are reading this very very wrong. That punk needs a long jail sentence but only after the cops on the street kick his butt for him about a mile or so.
Are you kidding me? The officer is in a fight for his life as far as he knows, and you're saying "you want to be fair" to the attacker! The attacker should have been sent to the promised land! You sir, are an i-i-t!
I was always nice about things as a Trooper even when I saw a man wearing prison garb walking down I-75 in punta gorda literally 400 yds from the prison. I cuffed him and put him in the back while calling the jail to see if they were one short. He was just released so I gave him a ride to a safe area that had facilities. Then wished him better luck in life.
Thank you Police Officers. While i cherish my freedom we still need basic order and rules. The cop may have easily taken him a bit further where he could have walked safely. A pity it came to this situation. I understand there can sometimes be police that push authority but this did not seem to be the case. Respect the police and we all live under the same law.
FYI: the taser only discharges "confetti" only when the prong projectile cartridge is used... There is no "confetti" when drive stun is used (drive stun is when the taser has the prong cartridge removed and the taser is in direct contact with the body when activated).
To the original trooper who struggled with the guy: Brother, if I ever meet you, a huge steak dinner and a brew is on me! You would have had every justification under the sun to shoot and/or kill this guy and yet, you resisted and handled the situation like a freaking pro!
I listen to this narator saying it looks like just a scuffle . This is bull crap. there's a gun in that fight. It's the troopers. He's stopped for his own protection, he's breaking the law. He fails to obey a lawful order. He decides to fight a Trooper on the side of a major highway. I'm sorry people. You need to get your head in the right place. That guy is lucky he's still on this earth. His poor decisions could have cost them both dearly. God Bless that Trooper for handling this call the way he did.
I think the second officer probably should have drawn his weapon and been prepared to shoot. When someone is wrestling with an officer like that, it can just take a second for them to unholster the officer's weapon.
Once, I was walking down the side of a freeway as a 14 year old from a friends houseon the other side of town. It was getting dark out and I took the freeway because I was lost and trying to get home, and it's the only direct way I knew. Besides that, this was in San Bernardino, California. Gang areas. The freeway was safer than walking through these neighborhood streets. A cop rolled up on me, and through his loud speaker told me to climb down the steep side to get off the freeway. When I asked him for directions and maybe a quick ride, he said, "I'm not a taxi service" Fk the police.
No taser deployment, but we can't verify that there was no drive stun which is obviously what the officer was preparing to do. Taser deployment isn't done when in contact with the suspect. Tasers have two contacts on the front to allow use like a stun-gun. At any rate, the subject was resisting and assaulted the officer so he'll be busy in court for a while.
Tasers do not have to be fired to be used. They can be used in drive-stun mode where there are no electrodes fired from the front of the gun. It looks like he did this when he pressed it to the body of the suspect but I’m not sure.
For anyone on the suspects side, there are good reasons for laws and asking people to comply. If someone is already doing something illegal, there can be more and Police need to be able to check. Some other illegal usage of the freeway has turned into a LOT more, and that's why the law is there. And for PROTECTION. It's distracting motorists, too. Well done and with little force on Officer's part.
Exactly why we need less police and more social workers to help people with mental health issues. Police are not Mental Health Experts, the young man needed some one to talk with who had the tools to understand his situation. Not physical violence against him. He could be disoriented due to medication, or hearing impaired, we will never know.
Result would have been the same if a social worker stopped and tried to prevent him from walking, except a social worker wouldn't have the tools or training to defend themselves and restrain the individual.
Cops worried abt the man being harmed by traffic. But, instead the victim is harmed by police. If that doesn't sum up the police. I don't know what does. 😂
