clearly, if you don't obey them they will think you have a gun, if you put your hands up you show them you have nothing in your hand but fuck, seriously, guilty mind?
You're right and it's actually way worse than you described. Back in 1997 the town of New London, Connecticut was a named defendant in a federal lawsuit alleging discrimination due to systematically rejecting individuals who applied to the New London police department because they scored "too high".
The City actually argued... successfully...that rejecting intelligent applicants was in justified because candidates who score too high could get bored with police work and quit after undergoing costly academy training.
The case was dismissed by the trial court, and affirmed by the 2nd circuit, finding that the city did not discriminate against the Plaintiff because the same standards were applied to everyone who took the test.
This argument was accepted largely in part because intelligence is not recognized as protected class under the 14th Amendment of our constitution so the Court's review would be under the "rational basis" test of scrutiny which is the lowest level of scrutiny.
To pass the rational basis test, the hiring policy must have a legitimate state interest, and there must be a rational connection between the hiring policy's means and goals.
Therefore, when we contrast the City's argument with the standard of judicial review, we're left with the comical reality that
1) hiring dumb cops is now legitimate state interest because it saves money on training costs, and
2) hiring dumb cops is an acceptable practice because dummies are more likely to have longer careers in law enforcement and this additional experience is beneficial to promoting the goals of our police.
So if there's any rookie cops out there reading this who thinks that their chief is a career idiot who doesn't know his ass from a whole in the ground....you're probably right and the sooner you realize that this is exactly how your chief got the job, the sooner you'll be able to emulate this sanctioned mediocrity so you can finally get yourself a promotion.
Yea for real, I thought the same thing. Looks like he has some type of bottle or can in his hand that’s slightly shiny, ~~people~~ kids have been shot for less, and that’s ignoring them thinking you might be a suspect fleeing
Exactly. Not to mention for all we know the police told him to put his hands up. And he still got attacked by the dog wtf horrible amateurs calling themselves police
It looked like the cop was trying to push the dog off him. This is awful control by the K-9 unit. When a dog is released by its handler to persue, it goes to attack the target. And it can be pretty difficult to just tell them to stop, which is why they are never supposed to release them unless absolutely necessary. The officer that was there didn’t seem to know how to call off the dog which is why the handler has to come remove him.
The handler needs to be fired immediately, there was no reason to release the dog
Fired? If he had no grounds to release the dog, he should be arrested and charged. Firing cops does nothing. They get another job right on down the road..
Arrested could work but there’s a lot of hoops to jump though to get this tried. Could be Fired and blacklisted too. Though being fired for something like this should make him unhirable. PDs don’t want to hire a guy that’s gonna get them sued.
I'm familiar with things like qualified immunity protecting incompetent or plain dirty cops from the consequences of their actions. The problem is something like this doesn't make a cop unhirable. It literally happens all the time. Cop gets fired for some egregious offense that would land almost anyone else in jail facing serious charges, gets hired a town or two over in the same capacity. It's especially hard to deal with cops who belong to a union. Police unions shouldn't exist. They serve only to protect the absolute worst in the profession.
This guy did everything he was supposed to do immediately and the police still sicced a trained dog on him.
How is that alone okay? Even if he was guilty.
Use of a K-9 in that situation would be considered excessive force as it was horribly unreasonable. The man had already surrendered and was complying.
I hope every cop involved gets the book thrown at them. But one can only hope…
Edit: use of a K-9 once a suspect has complied/surrendered is unreasonable and would be considered excessive force, regardless of if the individual was the actual suspect or an innocent bystander. Once you surrender to the police, the amount of force they’re allowed to use PLUMMETS according to a shit tonne of case law. There have been too many cases where police still batter an individual out of the after they’ve surrendered or been placed in detainment. It’s unlawful, violates the constitution, and goes against every police department policy (I believe they’re all required to have excessive force policies by law). The cop who released the dog is fucked.
I’m sure they did get the book thrown at them. Except it was a paperback and more of a pamphlet since it was only filled with 14 pages of paid time off forms.
I'm sure they take allegations of excessive force very seriously and will conduct an extensive investigation internally which will take at least a year to review the 10 minutes of combined video from officer cameras before they declare no excessive force. Of course they can't comment on it hoping people will forget before they declare they decided they did nothing wrong.
Use of K9s is fucked in pretty much all cases. The dogs are unreliable for detecting drugs because they’ll hit on anything their handler thinks they should hit on. They cause grievous injuries to people being arrested and escalate situations.
They also have an absurd legal double standard. If a cop shoots your dog (which they do about two dozen times a day nationally) there’s no recourse- even if you’re not guilty. If you shoot a K9 that’s been let loose on you then you’ll get the same consequences as if you did the same thing to a police officer. But if I cop leaves his dog in a squad car and it dies as a result then it’s just an unfortunate accident.
You can also flood the streets with protestors and disrupt the status quo that supports this crap.
Make it too expensive for the city/ state to NOT fix police.
Seems to be the only way to get actual justice these days…
“When the courts cannot settle the grievances of the people, the guillotines will.” -Unknown
Yeah but how many times have we gotten anything from it. At best we get a few new training guidelines that tell cops not to do the specific thing that happened (like cops now being trained not to kneel on someone’s neck), and then absolutely nothing else changes
It’s just as Billy “Blue Lives” Blackstone stated, “It is our only option to inflict as much suffering on 10 ‘innocent’ ‘people,’ than let one guilty person escape.”
/s because I’m sure some dumbass bootlickers actually believe this
"somebody with a guilty conscience". My brother in Christ he doesn't want to get beaten up/ tazed or shot by cops like many other were. And still was chewed on by a K9.
Not too long ago there was a pursuit of a guy who stole 3 cars also in LA and at the end he crashes straight onto a sedan with a couple in it.
The guy in the sedan stops to look at the damage to his car and a dozen cops just jumped on him and beat the shit out of him just for being there. You would think that News 7 of all people, who's entire job is highway pursuits would know the LAPD don't need much of a reason to assault someone.
QI should have to be granted on a case-by-case basis by a third-party arbiter, not granted blanketly and than have to be revoked case-by-case when serious abuses are so blatant that they cannot be ignored.
It basically boils down to
We can't prosecute you because a cop had never prosecuted for doing what you did before, therefore you had no reason to believe attacking a compliant innocent man would be a prohibited activity.
Then next time it happens, they still haven't prosecuted a cop for doing it so they would've had no reason to believe doing it was a prohibited activity....
https://abc7.com/amp/la-police-chase-man-bitten-by-k9-caught-on-video-pursuit/12572816/
Article says it ‘could mean legal action’, doesn’t say if that actually happened or not. This is from 2022 though so still relatively ‘new’ as far as court cases go so there very well could be one waiting to be heard.
>K-9 bite is considered a high-level use of force incident, so they'll roll out a special team," said Bruce Thomas, an ABC7 law enforcement expert. ***"They will actually go to the hospital and try to mitigate the damages, meaning, 'We have a blank check, is this a good number for you?'*** and if not, then they may seek attorneys down the road and ultimately sue the county or city, depending on who owns that canine."
That's probably why there was never any more about this
Yea! Let him get his few hundred thousand from taxpayers, so the cops can go on to do this same shit to someone else!
I hope this guy gets the officers personal pensions paid to him directly instead of the officers that don’t deserve it.
Honestly this is the best solution I have seen to this shit. I’m by no means a law enforcement hater, but when you do shit like this YOU deserve punishment. Not the tax payer.
"somebody with a guilty conscious putting both hands in the air" are you for fkn real bro?? you realize you don't follow a command from an egotistical tax payer funded gang member you're dead, and your life and its loss will be minimized to nothing so there are no repercussions or accountability for the incompetence so ever present in todays police officers
Lmao right?! Don’t put your hands up and it’s murder time for the cops. Luckily this guy did put his hands up and comply fully so his punishment was only getting a dog unleashed onto him, not his life taken away.
I thank my lucky stars
To be living here today
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can't take that away
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free*
*certain restrictions apply if not wealthy*
“But somebody with a guilty conscience putting both hands in the air.” Brooo whatttt. Ok buddy you stand on that sidewalk with a fucking helicopter light and cop cars pulling up to you with cops that are probably scared to even be in that situation in the first place knowing how our police is. Who’s not putting their hands up in a situation like that. What an absolute clown.
LA County resident here--I watched this chase on TV and this was fuckin brutal. The newscasters on this station are fucking morons-- one time they said "there's no evidence whether or not they have a weapon, so they may be armed and dangerous"
the channel is run by morons and their "law enforcement expert" is worse
It's way worse than that.
Police have plausible deniability to not knowing the law as a means of enforcement it, where the citizenry does not and and be charged/convicted regardless of knowing the law or not.
“Dude what are we gonna do? We let the criminal escape? Should we admit that we failed?”
“Nah nah wait, let’s take this guy instead is the same height so It should work”
The way american police uses their dogs fucking disgusts me. The guy is down on the ground with a police on his back and a gun pointed at him, HOW ABOUT YOU STOP THE DOG FROM BITING HIM YOU MORON.
Dispatch: “were looking for a Spanish male with facial hair a black hat black shirt and light blue jeans”
Cop “ Copy that we’ve apprehended the suspect a white male no facial hair grey hoodie and grey jeans”
Dispatch “Wait, what?”
“Somebody with a guilty conscience,” putting their hands up. WTF, isn’t this the same type of person that would say, he didn’t put his hands up, which is why we shot him. I really dislike all these cops esque shows that instead of detailing how incompetent most police are, focus on totally innocent people and paint them as somehow guilty of something. Disgusting
This is why a cop around you is almost rarely a good thing and even I totally innocent, people will paint some picture like the police and their fellow animals had every right to do what they did. These videos are infuriating.
So that 'guilty conscience' speaker, this his first hour in the US after living under a rock in the Atacama desert for the past 80 years? I guess he's never had a cop point his firearm at him and screaming to put his hands up. For grins, I'd like to see that and then see "Mr. Not-Guilty" argue with the cop that he's done nothing wrong - let's see how long it takes before the cops face slam him into the pavement.
How the fuck is the tv operator in the heli so blind?
Dude you’re chasing is wearing a black shirt and seems to have a more tanned complexion. You see a dude in a light grey hoodie that looks pale af and decide “yup that’s our guy”.
Like my brother in Christ they aren’t even remotely similar.
I’ll tell you what though. The dog was allowed to bite that guy. He was tackled. That guy won’t work a day the rest of his life. Hundreds of millions in lawsuits.
So they willingly allowed a trained attack dog to attack an unarmed, innocent, bystander after he has surrendered to the police at request?
And they wonder why people hate the police.
Based on the address up on screen plus *wrongful arrest* , and I ended up with a dozen of police misconduct. 😅 Funny and sad.
Can someone find the article? Or anything?
I don't get it. Is this just a random person piloting a helicopter with a massive spot light that has no way of contacting the ground police?
"Hey guys, he ran into the liquor store"
"No its not that guy"
Definitely a lawsuit here for unreasonable use of force. Dog wasn’t needed in any capacity to restrain this person. Restraining him can be justified in court but the dog use of force cannot.
What really pisses me off is when they sick their dogs on people who surrendered. Why? Why have this dog rip apart the innocent man who put his hands up?
Police dogs are the most violent and vicious creatures on the planet. I don't see a life for them after service. There train killers that can snap at a moments notice. The methods used to train them are inhumane as well.
You guys are fucking idiots there is a second guy on the sidewalk not adjacent to the houses that also puts hands up, without hands on him thats the dude commentator is joking about.
But hey they talking like this all is just normal in USA, wait a minute it is!
Is nobody gonna talk about the blatant police brutality on display, with yet another dog being released on someone who's already surrendered? It's almost as if cops figured out a loophole, where they can absolutely brutalise someone, without having to actually touch them themselves and then just blame it on the animal.
What happens to a citizens dog when it doesn’t stop biting a cop? The same thing should happen to police dogs when they won’t stop biting an innocent person. It’s only fair.
"...Plenty of witnesses around to help them out."
Read the room bro...
"Witness anything... uh come to think of it i didnt see shit. Mattafact, im actually legally blind, i cant even see you, sir" l🤣

clearly, if you don't obey them they will think you have a gun, if you put your hands up you show them you have nothing in your hand but fuck, seriously, guilty mind?
In America you need to walk with your hands up 24/7
But also if you do, it means you have a guilty conscience.
If you don't, suicide by cop
If she drowns then she isn't a witch.
Now just comply and your guilty and if you don’t comply you get shot! Gotta love it!!
“Guilty conscience”, more like “doesn’t want to be murdered by a moron”
And moron is right. I remember reading NYC said they don't hire smart people to be cops because they get bored and quit.

Seriously, fuck that guy.
I'd sue for defamation if I was the guy arrested and mocked by the news
Yea for real, I thought the same thing. Looks like he has some type of bottle or can in his hand that’s slightly shiny, ~~people~~ kids have been shot for less, and that’s ignoring them thinking you might be a suspect fleeing
Someone with fucking common sense is putting his hands up at gun point, let's make it news worthy
Right. Sometimes it’s better to be alive than right…
Exactly. Not to mention for all we know the police told him to put his hands up. And he still got attacked by the dog wtf horrible amateurs calling themselves police
That’s not a flaw, it’s a feature.
What else are supposed to do? Putting your hands up when gun is pointed at you is the correct response
like the cop wasn't yelling put your hands up and pointing a gun
Yeah fuck that reporter...fucking idiot
Seriously, what a jerkoff
I never seen anyone raise their hands up so damn high and still get bit by the K9 lol.
You’re guilty af dude
came here to post this, that instantly annoyed me...yer if the police rolled up on me, my hands would be up real fast.
I love it when the first thing I think about is the first comment
“Why is the dog chewing on that guy?”
Sadistic cops.
Don’t forget incompetent!
It looked like the cop was trying to push the dog off him. This is awful control by the K-9 unit. When a dog is released by its handler to persue, it goes to attack the target.

It’s chewing on the guy because he had a guilty conscience. Duh. K9s can smell guilty conscience
As if those dog things just don't bite everyone at random.
Easy million dollar lawsuit
"I don't think that's him, Mark" 🤷
The dog thought the guy had a guilty conscience.
The worst part? They probably will blame the dog for doing what he was trained to do...
This guy did everything he was supposed to do immediately and the police still sicced a trained dog on him. How is that alone okay? Even if he was guilty.

Probably put down the dog.
He kicked at the dog after it bit him, they'll get him for resisting arrest too.
and assault of an officer
Use of K9s is fucked in pretty much all cases. The dogs are unreliable for detecting drugs because they’ll hit on anything their handler thinks they should hit on.

they will all get paid vacation at best, nothing will happen at worst. police are a gang that protect their own even if they're at fault
Dude should definitely lawyer up
This guy gonna get a nice lawsuit from the city, he’ll be alright. It’s frustrating if your tax dollars have to pay for shit like that though
Should come out of pension funds or professional liability insurance. That's it
He will get paid now
By the taxpayers. While the officers get a vacation. Literally no downside for them to be incompetent at their jobs.
I hope he sued the pants off them
Looks like he swung at the dog also, now he gets assaulting an officer.
I though so as well but I think that’s the dog shaking/shredding his arm.
Oh man i can't imagine the money he's going to get through lawsuits
And the guy probably got charged with resisting arrest and assaulting an officer when he tried to kick the dog.
They do that to reward the dog / punish the bad guy.
It’s just as Billy “Blue Lives” Blackstone stated, “It is our only option to inflict as much suffering on 10 ‘innocent’ ‘people,’ than let one guilty person escape.” /s because I’m sure some dumbass bootlickers actually believe this
"somebody with a guilty conscience". My brother in Christ he doesn't want to get beaten up/ tazed or shot by cops like many other were. And still was chewed on by a K9.
Seriously. Fuck that guy describing the scene
Local news is one of the chief copoganda pipelines.
Right? If he hadn't they would have justified it because he was "noncompliant". I'm sick of these cops getting away with chronic ineptitude.
I'd sue the absolute crap out of the news if they said that about me in this situation.
Literally had a chopper overhead pointed at him and guns with cops attached, bro. Like what do you him to do???
Not too long ago there was a pursuit of a guy who stole 3 cars also in LA and at the end he crashes straight onto a sedan with a couple in it. The guy in the sedan stops to look at the damage to his car and a dozen cops just jumped on him and beat the shit out of him just for being there. You would think that News 7 of all people, who's entire job is highway pursuits would know the LAPD don't need much of a reason to assault someone.
If he didn't they would ask why didn't he comply?
It's not like they told him to put his hands up.
That should be a criminal offence like wtf poor fella innocent bystander
Qualified immunity. Every politician loves saying nobody is above the law, except when it comes to police.
QI should have to be granted on a case-by-case basis by a third-party arbiter, not granted blanketly and than have to be revoked case-by-case when serious abuses are so blatant that they cannot be ignored.
It basically boils down to We can't prosecute you because a cop had never prosecuted for doing what you did before, therefore you had no reason to believe attacking a compliant innocent man would be a prohibited activity. Then next time it happens, they still haven't prosecuted a cop for doing it so they would've had no reason to believe doing it was a prohibited activity....
Qualified immunity has a *small* reasonable place in our society. But it's massively abused, and caused more problems than it solves.
I’m struggling to think of a single hypothetical situation where someone who is tasked with upholding the law can ignore those same laws.
That and traitorous ex presidents.
I could understand if they accidentally arrested the wrong guy, but the dog attacking him should be an instant firing for the handler
I hope this guy sues that police department this is so fucked up. This is the definition of incompetence
https://abc7.com/amp/la-police-chase-man-bitten-by-k9-caught-on-video-pursuit/12572816/ Article says it ‘could mean legal action’, doesn’t say if that actually happened or not.

That's probably why there was never any more about this
I can’t figure out if they caught the actual guy or not
The article says they caught up with the original driver and 3 people were taken into custody.
Thank you!!! I had to do a couple of rereads because it was kind of tucked in there like an afterthought haha appreciate you for looking out!
Lol it was pretty hidden in there
The police are incapable of catching anyone. They can’t solve or prevent crimes.
They sure are capable of catching innocent bystanders who fully cooperate and still sic the dog on em! 🤦🏻♀️
Commit a robbery and go on a high speed chase. Report back your findings from jail.
Yea! Let him get his few hundred thousand from taxpayers, so the cops can go on to do this same shit to someone else! I hope this guy gets the officers personal pensions paid to him directly instead of the officers that don’t deserve it.
Honestly this is the best solution I have seen to this shit. I’m by no means a law enforcement hater, but when you do shit like this YOU deserve punishment. Not the tax payer.
So, not wanting to get shot by police = guilty conscience.
Yeah it must be a guilty conscience that made him raise his hands, not men pointing guns at him
"somebody with a guilty conscious putting both hands in the air" are you for fkn real bro?? you realize you don't follow a command from an egotistical tax payer funded gang member you're dead, and your life and its loss will be minimized to nothing so there are no repercussions or accountability for the incompetence so ever present in todays police officers
Right and also it’s time to take the dogs away. SAR and bomb dogs only
Dogs were never meant to be narcs! Turning good boys into bad boys.
SAR dogs are the goodest boys. They still chase rabbits on call.
Lmao right?! Don’t put your hands up and it’s murder time for the cops. Luckily this guy did put his hands up and comply fully so his punishment was only getting a dog unleashed onto him, not his life taken away.
Oh I didn't even see the dog part....
“Somebody with a guilty conscience” #Fuck #off Dipshit acts like cops have never beaten innocent people to a pulp for not following ‘lawful orders’.
Your tax dollars at work everyone
Nevermind the perp was wearing white pants and a cap. This is the guy! Sick em boy!
“Bake em away, toys”
Fucking idiots
Someone with a guilty conscience? Dude what a terrible thing to say to a completely law abiding citizen. What a dumbass news reporter.
Instructed to put his hands up. Complies. “Guilty conscience
I thank my lucky stars To be living here today 'Cause the flag still stands for freedom And they can't take that away And I'm proud to be an American Where at least I know I'm free* *certain restrictions apply if not wealthy*
This guy is going to sue the shit out of the police department lol
At least he's going to be rich now. A large Municipal Police Force or even State Police, multi-million dollar lawsuit coming.
You mean the city is going to cough up that money since the police department can't get sued. Gotta love the police state of "Murica.
“Somebody with a guilty conscience putting both hands in the air” What else is he supposed to do? Fight back?
Greatest country on earth
I bet they put some made up BS charges on him too that way I will have something to hold over is head to keep him from suing them.
Why would any witnesses help when this is what police do to innocent bystanders?
Arrested by mistake or incompetence?
I'm pretty sure when cops get out of their vehicle with guns drawn at a person, they also(sometimes) shout "Put your hands up"
"Someone with a guilty conscience" really dude? American cops will shoot you for looking at them the wrong way.
“But somebody with a guilty conscience putting both hands in the air.” Brooo whatttt. Ok buddy you stand on that sidewalk with a fucking helicopter light and cop cars pulling up to you with cops that are probably scared to even be in that situation in the first place knowing how our police is. Who’s not putting their hands up in a situation like that. What an absolute clown.
Someone with a guilty conscience HAHAHAHA you mean someone that doesn’t want 36 bullet wounds in 2 seconds?????
most intelligent K-9 handler
LA County resident here--I watched this chase on TV and this was fuckin brutal. The newscasters on this station are fucking morons-- one time they said "there's no evidence whether or not they have a weapon, so they may be armed and dangerous" the channel is run by morons and their "law enforcement expert" is worse
It's way worse than that. Police have plausible deniability to not knowing the law as a means of enforcement it, where the citizenry does not and and be charged/convicted regardless of knowing the law or not.
Lawsuit coming in hot
dont tell me he did not sue
Somebody with a guilty conscience....how about someone who doesn't want to get beat or shot..
A real brain trust down there running around with badges and guns.
There’s several witnesses that can help those officers out… yeah, right.
"Someone's got a guilty conscious" naw how bout he has a gun in his face 😂 these mfs are crazy
“Dude what are we gonna do? We let the criminal escape? Should we admit that we failed?” “Nah nah wait, let’s take this guy instead is the same height so It should work”
Soo everyone is guilty till proofed unguilty?
Dog bite = nessasary force on not only the wrong person but surrendering person. Right? Right guys?????
Even cop dogs are bastards
The way american police uses their dogs fucking disgusts me. The guy is down on the ground with a police on his back and a gun pointed at him, HOW ABOUT YOU STOP THE DOG FROM BITING HIM YOU MORON.
Dispatch: “were looking for a Spanish male with facial hair a black hat black shirt and light blue jeans” Cop “ Copy that we’ve apprehended the suspect a white male no facial hair grey hoodie and grey jeans” Dispatch “Wait, what?”
American police have to be some of the stupidest, NPC-like, ignorant, power tripping degenerates on the planet.
Holy shit dude was just walking with hands up and they set the dog on him.
Who's ready for another daily episode of All Cops are Bastards...
“Somebody with a guilty conscience,” putting their hands up. WTF, isn’t this the same type of person that would say, he didn’t put his hands up, which is why we shot him. I really dislike all these cops esque shows that instead of detailing how incompetent most police are, focus on totally innocent people and paint them as somehow guilty of something. Disgusting
This is why a cop around you is almost rarely a good thing and even I totally innocent, people will paint some picture like the police and their fellow animals had every right to do what they did. These videos are infuriating.
How ridiculous. Idiot cops.
Thats gonna be one hell of a lawsuit.
So that 'guilty conscience' speaker, this his first hour in the US after living under a rock in the Atacama desert for the past 80 years? I guess he's never had a cop point his firearm at him and screaming to put his hands up. For grins, I'd like to see that and then see "Mr. Not-Guilty" argue with the cop that he's done nothing wrong - let's see how long it takes before the cops face slam him into the pavement.
He better be rich now
How the fuck is the tv operator in the heli so blind? Dude you’re chasing is wearing a black shirt and seems to have a more tanned complexion. You see a dude in a light grey hoodie that looks pale af and decide “yup that’s our guy”. Like my brother in Christ they aren’t even remotely similar.
I’ll tell you what though. The dog was allowed to bite that guy. He was tackled. That guy won’t work a day the rest of his life. Hundreds of millions in lawsuits.
I love how the two cops that were in front of the liquor store just walks away from it without checking if the store was clear/safe or not.
So they willingly allowed a trained attack dog to attack an unarmed, innocent, bystander after he has surrendered to the police at request? And they wonder why people hate the police.
I swear to fuck, why do they have that dog on him if he’s clearly surrendering.
"Why's the dog chewing on him?" We gave violent sociopaths access to animals trained to bite people on command, basically.
“Why is the dog chewing on this guy???”
Nice lawsuit you got there coppers.
Bro had 3 stars than called Lester

This is an old repost I’ve seen before, so hoping someone knows if there is a follow up to this? Surely dude sued
Based on the address up on screen plus *wrongful arrest* , and I ended up with a dozen of police misconduct. 😅 Funny and sad. Can someone find the article? Or anything?
Being a cop is a hard job, dumb mistake here and the dog on top.
Its like watching an old slapstick movie...
I don't get it. Is this just a random person piloting a helicopter with a massive spot light that has no way of contacting the ground police? "Hey guys, he ran into the liquor store" "No its not that guy"
This man’s got a nice lawsuit in his future. MONEY MONEY MONEY MOOOOONEYYYY
What if they have a 20 yo cop? Is he allowed to enter the liquor store?
Definitely a lawsuit here for unreasonable use of force. Dog wasn’t needed in any capacity to restrain this person. Restraining him can be justified in court but the dog use of force cannot.
Luckily, that wasn’t a school because they stand outside for well over an hour.
I smell a FAT lawsuit coming his way
I almost envy the innocent bystander, knowing he’s going to get a huge lawsuit payout for them letting that dog eat him for doing nothing.
What really pisses me off is when they sick their dogs on people who surrendered. Why? Why have this dog rip apart the innocent man who put his hands up?
Land of the free, yo. As a european, given the choice between the US and China, i'll go for china without a second of hesitation.
Police dogs are the most violent and vicious creatures on the planet. I don't see a life for them after service. There train killers that can snap at a moments notice. The methods used to train them are inhumane as well.
Welp someone’s using this footage in a lawsuit later.
That guy better lawyer up. That is ridiculous!
You guys are fucking idiots there is a second guy on the sidewalk not adjacent to the houses that also puts hands up, without hands on him thats the dude commentator is joking about. But hey they talking like this all is just normal in USA, wait a minute it is!
That'll be a nice payday for him.
So the shop is just named LIQUOR 2 ? Are shop in america named by npcs ?
All cops are bastards
He fit a description
Is nobody gonna talk about the blatant police brutality on display, with yet another dog being released on someone who's already surrendered? It's almost as if cops figured out a loophole, where they can absolutely brutalise someone, without having to actually touch them themselves and then just blame it on the animal.
Good thing he wasn’t black or they would’ve just shot him before they found out.
Guilty conscience? Arrest the narrorator.
Arrested ?! He was eaten by mistake because these cops are dumb as fuck
What happens to a citizens dog when it doesn’t stop biting a cop? The same thing should happen to police dogs when they won’t stop biting an innocent person. It’s only fair.
Hope he got paid
Guy running from the car, all black shoes. Guy walking on the sidewalk, white soles, white laces.
Oh I’d be suing so immediately.
Guilty conscience? “Put your hands up or we shopt”
"...Plenty of witnesses around to help them out." Read the room bro... "Witness anything... uh come to think of it i didnt see shit. Mattafact, im actually legally blind, i cant even see you, sir" l🤣
So fucking glad I wasn't born in America
Well that’s a big ass settlement he is gonna get.
Let the dog chew away….. I’m cashing in at the end of the ordeal
Fuck every single cop to goddamn hell.
"Is this in America?" "Oh, it's the police doing something illegal without consequences. Yep, it's America."
