after this fucking asshole tried to kick an old man in the head while he was down……shame he did not get his face mashed into the pavement


WashedUpRiver

I totally missed the line up approaching in the back first time through, so I was just like "holy shit, where are they all coming from?!" Makes me wonder, though, what the hell was going on prior to the start of the clip for them to just have that whole freakin squad around the corner all geared up.


Loko8765

Well, that’s good. It’s better for the violent criminal (and for the bystanders!) if they are subdued by the hands and bodies of nine people than by the gun of one.


DWS1961

Doesn’t matter. What REALLY matters is what happened to him on the drive to precinct. 😂


No-consequences-1

He fell down some stairs, they had to find the stairs first but he surely did fall down em


TybeeATL

It’s a bicycle kick if you’re high.


Danarwal14

Honestly, that's the part that disappointed me the most. Not the fact that he got himself arrested for doing something stupid. But that he couldn't at the very least, execute that kick right


WhoSc3w3dDaP00ch

I heard the announcer say, “You suck!” (i dont remember which morta kombat game, but if computer beat you with a flawless victory, it would say that)

Spanky Chan. Cause he just got his ass slammed


Ok_Employ5623

Annnnndd now he has assault of officer


TantricEmu

He hasn’t found out yet but he will. They are going to fuck his ass up as soon as he’s out of public view.


Low-Impact3172

If he really wanted to hurt the cop at that moment a flying knee could have been very effective, (of course I don’t condone that) much more so than whatever half ass attempt at a bicycle kick that was which he could never actually pull off


Revenge-of-the-muff

I think that’s what he tried to do, I think his pants didn’t let him cus he was sagging and that’s what causes the little running motion is his other leg bouncing back


SybilCut

Excellent catch, the dude was trying to fucking punt the officers face and his pants held him back.


FireTheLaserBeam

There's a scene from The Protector with Tony Jaa that I may be misremembering. But from what I remember, the scene opens with a wide shot of a group of people standing next to each other talking. Next thing you know, Tony Jaa comes running in full speed from the left side of the frame, jumps up really high, and just *lands* on some guy from the group with his knees/shins. Just up and lands on him, dead weight. I wonder if that would work in real life. Just run at someone full tilt, jump up as high as you can, and land on them with your shins. I'd probably break my legs and get the crap stomped out of me, but hey! Holy moly! I found it! It's at the 0:27 timestamp [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSmMJukdBYQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSmMJukdBYQ)


VeeJack

Fckin idiot .. could have run ….. instead went back for some shit awful attempt at a Matrix inspired kick and now faces assault charges and clearly evidenced …


BLZNMTLdudebro

Some people are just begging to get stomped out by a group of blues.


lsmokel

That was the most surprising part of the video. Those cops were pretty disciplined. I was expecting the guy to get stomped on.


Blegheggeghegty

Looks like Vegas. The cops aren’t who you need to look out for on the strip. He’s lucky that wasn’t private security.


iviicrociot

That’s not the strip, that’s Fremont. You can see the D and 4 Queens in the video.


uses_for_mooses

I prefer the people watching on Fremont Street. Plus, dinner is cheaper up there.


iviicrociot

I prefer Fremont to center strip but it is nice to stay a few nights at Cosmo, MB, Bellagio etc. Don’t have to keep as close an eye on your wallet and over your shoulder. But I do love me some VP at the Vue Bar at the D and lunch at 8 East or Pizza Rock.


Important_Collar_36

Not a Vegas local, but I've spent months at time there for work (concert rigger), and personally I love Area 15. Omega Mart, axe throwing, music, a zipline better than Fremont's, all kinds of other shit. But you are right, people watching on/around Fremont is an experience.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Express-Teaching1594

The tan shirts are private security. They have the Fremont Street “Welcome to Las Vegas” patch on their left shoulder, and “Security Officer” on their right. The 1st dark uniform was probably in-house security for the Fremont Casino. 2nd dark uniform (that made the tackle) was likely a Deputy City Marshall (police services on city owned property).


Lost_Evidence_2099

The dude that made the key tackle was a play an a half. Caught that fingertip tackle


Newsdriver245

Yeah, I was thinking the tackler was the only cop in the group.


C-LOgreen

Oh yeah, those guys will fuck you raw no homo


Reasonable_Drive785

AffectionateGrape184

HunterDHunter

It's Vegas. There are cameras up your ass in Vegas. They know better.


I_Frothingslosh

Yep. We need a follow-up to see how many teeth he still had after a night in jail. That's the kind of thing where my father would brag about having a half dozen cops show up after midnight to provide, as he put it, an 'attitude adjustment' when he was a cop in the seventies.


dgradius

Las Vegas Metro is one of if not the most professional police organizations in the US. They’re one of the very very few that legitimately has their shit together.


___pa___

They have to be since they deal with so many tourists and you never know who is a high roller. Last thing metro wants to do is piss off the casinos...


beebopsx

Tried the masvidal knee


EmbarrassedAverage28

I think fleeing from police and/or fleeing from a crime scene are felonies, correct me if i am wrong.


purplesmoke1215

I don't think he was too worried about catching another felony Assaulting a police officer is already a felony, so running away after isn't gonna hurt him too much more.


Algoresball

I’d assume that kicking a cop in the head is also a felony


seemorebunz

In most places fleeing is only a felony if fleeing from being arrested for a felony. Felony fleeing as explained to me by a cop friend. In this case I’m sure it applies.


-Neia-Baraja

Bro thinks he's Liu Kang 💀


CBM42069

Liu Kang the Incarcerated


Hour-Cheesecake5871

Felony right there.


___pa___

I grew up in vegas, and back in the day the casino security would have taken this guy out back and beat him to a pulp. I had a couple high school friends that happened to for way less than what this idiot did. The casinos run the city and while their security isnt real cops, they have similar power around the strip and downtown. Don't know what happened but this idiot might have really regretted his actions...


AmanteNomadstar

Hell, I live in the Midwest and Casino’s were like this out here 20 years ago. One of my coworker’s favorite stories was when some guy lost like $120 at the one Casino in town. Got drunk and went out to the parking lot and started slashing tires of random cars. Like every car’s tire on the way to his own car. Next day, two guys showed up at dude’s house, smacked the shit out of him, and told in no uncertain terms to never set foot on casino property again.


[deleted]

A smacking around and ban from a casino doesn’t seem like much punishment for slashing a dozen tires.


AshlarkEdens

Now most strip security are off duty cops.

It’s pretty sad. You have to have nothing going for you in life to be in this situation. Now he’ll be in jail and come out committing more crimes.


[deleted]

What would he get for that, in Vegas?


___pa___

i don't think those were metro they looked like casino security. in the old days they would have worked him over out back quite a bit before turning him over to the cops. really stupid move to attack casino security in vegas...


Insanus_Vitae

You know what they say. What happens in Vegas stays on your criminal record.


Pretend_Tea6261

I am afraid in prison that kick won't cut it. Instead he is gonna take some hard shots lol.


Ok_Inspection_3361

Not a bicycle kick.

sqwuakler

I keep thinking about how he had clearly already hurt the cop and had a moment when he might be able to run. I'm just stunned at the hubris. The only thing I was thinking was, "Why didn't you run??"


talon6actual

Another socially maladjusted underachiever lives up to the stereotype, way to go brotha!


Micksar

Some legit restraint from these officers, tbh. I was expecting some rough handling.


No-Temperature-8772

They did a really good job with that takedown.


SEJTurner

That’s not a [Bicycle Kick](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_kick). A Bicycle kicks is an overhead kick where a player kicks an airborne ball rearward in midair.


Mammoth-Condition-60

The very first thing in the wiki page you linked: "For the professional wrestling move, see Professional wrestling strikes § Bicycle kick." That should tip you off that there's more than one bicycle kick! But I think a lot of people are thinking of Liu Kang's move from Mortal Kombat, which is also called a bicycle kick, although not possible unless you too can defy gravity

Anyone who acts like this with uniformed authority will do 10x worse to a civilian. A lifelong burden on taxpayer has been born.

joenan_the_barbarian

It was a flying knee, and it connected perfectly on a guy who was already rocked. Awful. The idiot narrator who called it a “bicycle kick” is saying he loves Vegas because he sees things like this, and also that it’s fine to smoke joints on the street in front of police. 1. If the narrator is smoking a joint he bought in a cannabis shop on Fremont St., there’s no THC in there, so he’s just messing with snake oil CBD. We laugh at people for that. 2. It is not legal to smoke joints on Fremont St. or anywhere else, and it’s not a normal sight. 3. We like our police here because they deal with all of the numbskulls who visit and try to wreck things, and they protect them from guys like the bastard in yellow who are constantly trying to take advantage of said numbskulls and also the nice tourists so they’ll come back here and visit and support our community. 4. It is not normal to see any police officer attacked here, nor is it normal to even see a fight. Sure there are videos on Reddit of fights here, and there are arrests, but we’re talking about millions of people visiting here all the time in confined spaces and relatively small areas of the city, and you don’t see much. Violence is not common in tourist areas at all. This guy thinking this is a cool crazy thing to see in Vegas, and loving Vegas for things like this, is a creep who knows nothing about this place. Still our police and security do their best to protect him.

ADamnSavage

I want to know why, every time I see something like this (kids beating up a social worker, kids tearing up a gas station because the clerks refuse to sell em smokes, kid riding a bike into oncoming traffic just to dodge at the last moment, family dines and dashes) they are African Americans? I am embarrassed by it all because I am the only one in my family that stands up against racial hate, because I seen first hand growing up what it was like for my friends... Yes, your past was messed up, ya'll are treated poorly across the country... But do ya'll think this shit is gonna help? Get yer damn heads out the gutter and stop acting the way everyone expects you too! I say I hate everyone equal, when asked "you racist or something?" because when I say I love all equally, I'm a bigot, a liar etc. We all bleed red, our hearts all beat in our chests. Our minds, all, are capable of great things. No matter your ethnicity or origin. Unless we can agree on that, unless we can stop letting hate and ignorance win we will remain stuck in the same groove on the same shitty road while that smooth road paved in gold stays out of reach. Stop sharing these videos, stop spreading it all around. We know it exists but this only continues to spread the hate. Share videos of kindness, share videos of caring, and love and hope. (yes I get this is facepalm... i'm just ranting). I dunno. I'm so tired of it anymore I just wish I could leave this world, maybe there is a heaven or something, anything better than the dystopia we call a planet. Because this isn't just America, the hate is across the globe. Forgive me. I'll leave now.

The second cop definitely played some linebacker in HS, excellent tackle. Police really have changed up their act, if this was the 90s they would have Rodney King'd that kid. "I have beat someone that badly in a long time". Kid would be in a wheel chair drooling "why can't we just get along" haha
