Don't know how u let some one steal your cop car but he def did take two taserings and kept moving.

[sbird1]

That was some incredibly bad driving. Impressive how he took the taser, though...

[audtatious]

He deserves to be hung for stupidity

[redtop91]

Hahahaha this video makes me laugh. Idiot cop. Idiot thief. All dummies.

[alms24sebring]

Wow that was really intense. Awesome!

[rc1honda]

Crazy how he never even touched the brakes when he t-boned that truck, he was still on the gas like the car was just gonna keep going. Dude was lucky they didn't shoot him. Cops are shooting people for much less lately.

If i was a cop and he got in my car i would of pulled my gun and shot him.

[Amays U G37S]

Wow that was really intense. Awesome!

that WAS really intense, I loved it.

I think he drove pretty good, no siren tho. When the truck made a left infront of him I don't think he inticipated that was going to happen. Clearly the truck was turning. I could tell that coming up on him in the video.

I wonder why 'that' happened to the guy in the truck?

[nissangirl74]

Dude's an idiot. I hope his cell-mate is an ex-linebacker named "Bubb-ette" who likes to play doctor.

[Acecool]

Maybe he was Canadian, where you have to walk to the police, especially if its raining! Cop asked him to put hands behind back was kind of uncalled for especially since he was showing his hands, the cop could've been friendlier.

Why didn't he turn on the sirens? And this just goes to show how retarded drivers are, that truck should have payed attention and saw that an emergency vehicle was approaching at a high rate of speed with lights which is about all you see since most cars are really sound-proof!

I'm not praising the guy that stole the car by any means, he drove like s*** and almost lost it several times!

[Chaotic_Warlord]

First of all to all you cop haters who think the cop was an idiot or was to aggressive, he really isn't and here's why. The officer who initially pulled the guy over was extremely professional, not once did he reach for his gun and he's trying very hard to not use any form of unnecessary force against the perp. You can see he's trying very hard to not inflict any sort of bodily harm on the dude and at the same time keep himself from being harmed. The perp takes two hits from a taser and keeps going and even fights off two officers before getting into the car. Under new regulations thanks to p**** a** liberals and thanks to you cop haters 3/4 of all departments in this country aren't allowed to use any sort of physical violence to subdue anyone. This puts on duty officers and their RPC's at risk, gone are the days when that officer would have just taken out his night stick and pummeled the perp into submission. I do believe the tag of the SUV he pulled over is a South Carolina tag and the driver was obviously either drunk or high. Had this taken place a couple of years ago the car never would have become a liability because the perp would have gotten a full magazine in his chest or would have been beaten down like the miserable dog he is. Now that officers can't do their jobs effectively anymore that dept. is down one RPC and the taxpayers are out $60 or 70K to have it replaced.

Finally, cocaine is a hell of a drug.

Are you kidding me

ok first if a guy gets out of a car immedietly after getting pulled over, thats a threat. He also put his hands in his pockets. Its not like the cop is ganna be shaking his hand. What if he just pulled out a gun which does happen. He needs to be ready for anything and get control of the situation right away. On top of that the driver was being a d!ck and turned all ghetto trynna fight a cop from the break.

Second, he probly either didnt know how to, was in the heat of the moment, or didnt want to let other cops know whaere he was if he was getting far away. If you're making a left turn on a 2 lane road, your not ganna look behind you, youre ganna look ahead on the other side. AND, look how fast he got up there! The cop car just made a turn and was on him in a few seconds. He had no idea what was coming. AND, the truck didnt even have aturn signal on!

Third, duh. Thats how you have the best chance of getting away... weaving thru traffic taking the car to the limit. He was flooring it the whole time! IMO he did a good job at trying to lose them. The truck was just totally unexpected.

[Chaotic_Warlord]

I love how he was all tough guy until he hits the truck and then all of a sudden after the adrenalin drops and he loses his high he starts to cry like a little b**** and begging for the cops to help him out because he couldn't breathe. Personally I think they should have left his a** in there and worried about the truck driver first. Oh wait that would go against the motto of every police dept. in the country, to protect and to serve... even if you're a worthless cop hating POS.

[redtop91]

3/4 of all departments in this country aren't allowed to use any sort of physical violence to subdue anyone.

[carloslebaron]

Being a police officer is a honorable job, but we must be real about several deficiencies in this department. How in the world still old and fat police officers running the streets? lets face it, they can't deal with aggresive young fellas, and this video shows that the police officer is far away of good workout.

It must be a limit about police officers safeguarding the streets, because if they are not in good shape then they must be out of service or working in a desk. In government, a custodian who can't lift 50 pounds is -by the book- a candidate for retirement, so police officers must be put in a similar weight scale.

The young guy knew that such police man wasn't a real challenge in a "one to one" match, and it is obvious, one can notice it in the video. Without the use of teasers or guns from both sides, the young fella should be capable to put both police officers eating dirt if such was the scenario, the young guy made moves that show that he was trained to fight in the street, specially against dumb fat and untrained police officers.

I don't like police, specially because they abuse a lot, a few years ago, two police officers were killed in action in my area, and on the day of their funeral, I was in my car trying to go back to work after having my lunch, but suddenly the traffic was stopped and the reason was the caravan of police vehicles entering to the cementery to give tribute to the dead police men. The problem was that every car and bus was empty, only the driver inside them..and I am talkng of hundreds of vehicles.in other words, a show, a big show which lasted about two hours...two hours where the traffic was on hold because the police department decided to give the impression that "big quantity" of vehicles passing in front of the coffins means a lot...What an abuse! What a waste of fuel! Hundreds of police vehicles plus hundreds of other vehicles all wasting fuel for about two hours!!! Sh*t!...

This video must be taking as a lesson and a warning, that the safety of the streets might not be in good hands when police officers are out of shape... There is no excuse here, one can see clearly that the police dude can't fight...

On the other hand, it was funny, very funny...the whole thing...

Police Training Model: In 1999, the COPS Office provided funding to PERF and the Reno (Nevada) Police Department to develop an alternative national model for training new officers that would incorporate community policing and problem-based learning techniques. The resulting Police Training Officer (PTO) Program addresses the traditional duties of policing in the context of specific neighborhood problems and includes several segments on the use of force. The PTO Program is an alternative to the 30-year-old San Jose Field Training Officer (FTO) Program. Many agencies are using the outlines of the PTO Program to develop their own in-house programs adapted to their particular needs. The program is available through Regional Community Policing Institutes (RCPIs).

Contacts between Police and the Public, a 1999 BJS report, estimated that less than half of 1 percent of an estimated 44 million people who had face-to-face contact with a police officer were threatened with or actually experienced force. Other studies report similar statistics. It is these few situations, however, that attract public attention. Robert K. Olsen, former Minneapolis Police Chief and Past President, Police Executive Research Forum (PERF), early in 2004 called the use of force "the single most volatile issue facing police departments." He noted that "just one use of force incident can dramatically alter the stability of a police department and its relationship with a community."

http://www.nij.gov/topics/law-enforceme ... tinuum.htm

The Use-of-Force Continuum

Most law enforcement agencies have policies that guide their use of force. These policies describe a escalating series of actions an officer may take to resolve a situation. This continuum generally has many levels, and officers are instructed to respond with a level of force appropriate to the situation at hand, acknowledging that the officer may move from one part of the continuum to another in a matter of seconds.

An example of a use-of-force continuum follows:

Officer Presence — No force is used. Considered the best way to resolve a situation.
The mere presence of a law enforcement officer works to deter crime or diffuse a situation.
Officers' attitudes are professional and nonthreatening.

Verbalization — Force is not-physical.
Officers issue calm, nonthreatening commands, such as "Let me see your identification and registration."
Officers may increase their volume and shorten commands in an attempt to gain compliance. Short commands might include "Stop," or "Don't move."

Empty-Hand Control — Officers use bodily force to gain control of a situation.
Soft technique. Officers use grabs, holds and joint locks to restrain an individual.
Hard technique. Officers use punches and kicks to restrain an individual.

Less-Lethal Methods — Officers use less-lethal technologies to gain control of a situation.
(See Deciding When and How to Use Less-Lethal Devices. )
Blunt impact. Officers may use a baton or projectile to immobilize a combative person.
Chemical. Officers may use chemical sprays or projectiles embedded with chemicals to restrain an individual (e.g., pepper spray).
Conducted Energy Devices (CEDs). Officers may use CEDs to immobilize an individual. CEDs discharge a high-voltage, low-amperage jolt of electricity at a distance.

Lethal Force — Officers use lethal weapons to gain control of a situation. Should only be used if a suspect poses a serious threat to the officer or another individual.
Officers use deadly weapons such as firearms to stop an individual's actions.

The PTO program was enacted to replace the more aggressive use of force allowed by the FTO. Yes they can and are trained and permitted use of force, however, due to the number of people who file complaints a lot of departments have instituted new rules and several have actually started to require all officers to not only have the dashboard cam, but also a camera and microphone is worn by the officers themselves. Use of force is a touchy subject and instead of sucking it up and telling all the people who file illegal use of force claims to F off, most departments would rather lose face and have their officers go out of their way to not utilize it unless they absolutely have to.

[alms24sebring]

^ owned

I dont think the cop was out of shape, and he is wearing a bullet proof vest. We had no idea what was really going on behind the cameras. Its not like he took him down like a prison b****, although that does happen. Fat cops should just be detectives instead.

God I love the sound of that crash..

[redtop91]

All those fancy laws are just circular reasoning because it's enforced by the police, if they even decide to enforce it. Police have all the power they need and then some.

[_b.jaye_]

should it be any other way?

[carloslebaron]

Funny, two years ago I was waiting to pay at the cashier and a cap got inside the store, he went straight to a dude who was in that moment trying to exit, and without saying a word, the police officer push him down with extreme force and arrested him. Apparently, the security cameras caught the dude stealing, and police was called. For sure the police officer knew the description of the dude, and had no problems with the arrest. Later on, when both of them together with the store manager went outside, people were talking about the "abuse" of force made by the cap, but for me such wasn't the scenario, for me the other fella must be disabled as soon as possible before he create problems.

On the other hand, yesterday a buddy asked me to wait for him at McDonalds because he decided to arrive to that store jogging after his karate lessons at night. So, I bought ice tea and took a seat while waiting. While this happened, a State Police officer got inside. He was tall as hell, and he had a belly like a 5 baby pregnant woman. He got inside behind the counter and served himself an empty cup, and filled it with ice and coke. Later he return to the kitchen area and gave a talk with the guys inside, and they prepare for him a meal. He came out to the lobby area and refilled the cup, and after picking up his meal he left the store.

You must know that he didn't pay for the food, I think that the tradition is to feed the caps for free. Well, this police officer surely can help a person locked inside the car after a branch tree fell over his vehicle, this police officer can surely use his weight to use a heavy duty hammer drill to break concrete, but surely can't run...so, he is not good if he tries to catch someone on the run.

My buddy, the one who is learning karate, he wants to be a cap, he is working hard preparing himself to become one. I wonder how many years in service are required to keep being in good shape, so later on caps can become fat and obsolete.

I thought that being a cap is like being a soldier, always being ready for defense himself and others. Criminals are not intellectual people who will comply with nice words, and the video is a good example of what I'm talking about. Surely, if the cap was in good shape, the video should have shown the dude getting arrested and the video be worthy to be seen in the TV program "Bad Boys"...

[AppleBonker]

Had this taken place a couple of years ago the car never would have become a liability because the perp would have gotten a full magazine in his chest or would have been beaten down like the miserable dog he is

Given this quote and your subsequent comments/links about use of force (which, btw, still don't seem to say there are laws against using force?), you would've wanted the officer to open fire on this guy? Seemed like there was a decent amount of traffic and other civilians around. Wouldn't you fear for their safety at all with the officer unloading a "full magazine"?

So I'm seeing that they are allowed to use force, and there's no mention of "p**** a** liberals" whatsoever. What's driving self-regulation in this regard is, as you admit, public relations, not political pressure. If you're going to make a political rant, there's a forum for that, but you're going to have to be a bit better at it.

Yes, there are regulations limiting an officer's authority to beat the crap out of you and/or shoot you. Anyone who argues that these limitations shouldn't exist needs to wear a helmet when they go on the internet.

Yes, a Police department shouldn't have to worry about saving face or have to fork out money to stupid lawsuits because an arresting officer got a little rough with a belligerent, drunk, or threatening a$$ that got their pride hurt. If you want to play like a big boy and try to hurt an officer on duty or you commit harm or attempt to commit harm on another person you deserve to get smacked down and not have any sort of leg to stand on when you try to file a lawsuit. Yes there are some over zealous cops, but the number of actual duty officers that are this way is microscopically small, and most of them are rookies who think they have something to prove, the rest are just bullies. 95% of all LEO's don't go into work wanting to pull their service pistol or even want to get physical with any person they come across, all they want is to do their shift, protect and serve, and go home to their friends and family at the end of shift. The cop haters like to think that all cops are out to get them, most of them probably have some reason to have the cops out to get them, the rest are either racially motivated or have had one bad run in with an officer who was more than likely having a bad day.

I will always have the utmost respect for all the men and women who wear the shield and are out their protecting and serving us, even the bad cops because at the end of the day if they weren't around this country (and world) would be a s*** ton more dangerous. Hell that's one of the reason's I'm trying to be a cop.

Police departments are government a governmental agency, they are run by the government (city, state, federal) those governments are inundated with liberals who are all about a kinder gentler world, these same liberals have made it illegal for you and I to discipline our children with anything more than shaking our finger at them, telling them they are bad and put them on time out. No proper discipline equates to higher crime and disrespectful adults and children who would rather be tough guys and try to fight or even kill the cops instead of being respectful, honest, hard working citizens. Just wait, in 5-10 years this country will be in far worse shape and the crime rate will be much much worse, and you know why, because we can't spank our kids anymore or use any form of physical or harsh discipline. Go ahead yell at your kid or spank them in public and see if you don't have child protective services and a cop standing on your door step. All of this thanks to to the same hippy liberals that tell our police departments not to billy club a guy that is trying to hurt or kill them, instead they have to use pepper spray and a tazer and hope to god that they go down, if not well, if back up isn't around the corner the s*** in that video happens or worse some kids father or mother doesn't get to come home from work.

Let me reroute your question, which would you rather have, a trained officer to subdue a violent suspect with the use of deadly force, or risk it and have that violent suspect, that isn't trained in markmanship, get their hands on the officers firearm and just start dispensing lead in random directions possibly killing the officer and/or killing an innocent civilian who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time? Personally I vote for option A, yes there were a lot of bystanders around, but as is usual with this country anymore, none of them tried to help the cop, especially when it was evident that he was in need of assistance. The guy was taller and bigger than the first cop and was obviously trying to either take the cop down to get his service weapon or was just trying to beat up the cop and get away. Either way he was intent of hurting the cop in one way or another. My question is why didn't his back up jump out of the car immediately, he just sat there and watched for a minute, had he responded properly this would have ended much differently.

When this happened...

Hahahaha this video makes me laugh. Idiot cop. Idiot thief. All dummies.

[_b.jaye_]

when should an officer not take the time to evaluate a situation and respond with appropriate force. "go out of their way" makes it sound like its some huge burdon to assess a situation and respond accordingly and not just fly off the handle & beat the hell out of anyone thats mouthing off. if some's belligerent or drunk, i dont see an immediate need to put their face to the pavement just for those issues. if theyre threatening or resisting, sure, respond accordingly.

although, to me, a bad cop's (a cop unjustly using force) just as much a criminal as a bar-room brawler, so i dont think were gonna find common ground here.

crazy-a** video. carry on

There is no time to evaluate, especially when a situation escalates. You're lucky if you have 30 seconds to read an entire situation, if it escalates you have 3 seconds to decide if you need to use moderate or deadly force. Anyone who has served in the military, especially in combat will tell you, an innocent looking person can quickly become your worst nightmare in .5 of a second. In the OP's video the officer knew before he got out of the car that this was going to end badly. It's bad when you get out of the car, it's very very bad when you get out of the vehicle and start walking towards to RPC that has stopped you, especially when you are gesturing in an irradic and violent manor.

Anyone who says that law enforcement isn't the same as combat obviously hasn't done one or the other. Especially traffic stops and domestic disputes, the 2 routine police calls that result in the most LEO casualties and fatalities.
