The cop is going to say I wasn’t driving they stole my car
These iduots think they cam turn things around and blame the home owner instead of them being drunk and driving. We are so over this B.S. of not taking accountability
The first story the police officer told was that he was swerving to miss a dog in the road.
And the video released since has no dogs to be seen, plus the “parked car” was never in their path and they turned *after passing it*
@@Ajapam34 Speeding and under the influence for sure.
You didn’t see that invisible dog 😅😅😅
@@Ajapam34 And now they are saying he was distracted by his radio.
How you lose control trying to park?
He was driving down the street, attempted to dodge a parked car and swerved into the building. The real question is why did he not see the vehicle. Drowsy/distracted/drunk who knows.
@@benjaminfishbeyn1996it takes quite the swerve to cross the whole street, drive onto the curve, and into a building before correcting
@@Ajapam34 I concur!!
@@benjaminfishbeyn1996 the parked car was already passed, he’s lying
Well Bodycam will clear all that up.
Oh, they said they have none of those because its an “older model” lol
The theme from the Blue Oyster is playing from the Police Academy movie
How strange
😂
Wow. Was the cop drunk? Where’s his id? Insurance?
Where is his picture ?????
Until law enforcement fixes their problems, they will continue to self inflict their defunding by getting sued.
Officer definitely either dozed off or was using his phone while driving.
Neither. It had to be intentional – and possibly had something to to with the cop’s boyfriend/jealousy issues.
@@brahmburgers I am so loving the conspiracy theories! Quite entertaining. 🤣
@@popcorn5130it’s not, the cop has already lied two times
Prayers for that stone wall guys!
😂😂😂
And cop car.@@doriancoreyscloset421
Was anyone Rear Ended
😂😂😂😂😂
I wonder if they gave the cop a sobriety field test or a breath test?
HA
It violates their rights look it up
@@antonioacosta5841Cops are special?
Not a chance, they protect their own
Probably not and even if they did I’d imagine it will never see the light of day
Body cam
Why are they allowed to use this cruiser as personal use while off duty? In a lot of states you have to return the car and get back in your own vehicle. This is weird to me.
Are the taxpayers paying for his gas as well and is this normal for officers to drink and then head out somewhere for duty?
He probably wasn’t going to be in the bar long.
Not a lot of States only some states do. Where I am the cops are allowed to do that with their cop cars. I have neighbors that I can see their cop cars every day because they live there.
My gf is a cop here in Hawai’i they have to return the cruiser back to the stations garage. She comes home in her personal vehicle everyday.
Using patrol to and from work is normal, since pay is low it’s seen as a benefit to help with recruiting.
Cops should fix their mess.
I like ur FIRST name Jones…I AIN’T gonna even hold you…😑
We know if this wasn’t a cop , they’d be getting 20 years for a hate crime.
ALSO DRUG TESTED LOL
lol
Lgbt gang try not to victimize themselves at every chance possible challenge (impossible)
Weird, you’d attack the lgbtq and not understand the irony of your own post.
Yes they told the pig to crash into the club
Not a good way to reveal to the world you had lobotomy
@@moonshoes11 weird, you don’t understand the point of the comment
They were literally arrested for no reason whatsoever, and you’re saying that they are “victimizing themselves”.
Your mind is weird
Was the driver subjected to a DUI test? 🤨
No, his fellow officers decided that it was unnecessary.🤦
Also there is video footage of the officer speeding past a red light right before the crash.
I don’t think thats what the guy meant by “rear end me” 🤪
It was a hate crime!
I live like 20 minutes from this bar and it’s been a crazy 3 days I tell you
Bodycam
Seeing the footage from all the other angles not shown here.. the cop was speeding, there was no dog, the nearest parked car was pretty far away, and the whole thing looks pretty intentional seeing how the cop bullseyed the dead center of the windows.
The officers handled this accident completely inappropriately and need to be retrained.
No, fired. Even if we assume they’re being totally honest, there’s no way a parked car makes you serve off the road and into a building unless you’re driving incredibly irresponsibly.
They need to be fired and arrested.
Need 2 stop drinking
They committed multiple crimes, they need to be arrested. If any other citizen did these things, they’d be behind bars right now. Cops were definitely drunk or high. They were driving recklessly before this.
Both sides are Babylon.
Just what the bar needs. Another drama queen. 🙂
Words aren’t just cause for putting your hands on another person.
The cop was meeting someone he met on Grindr.
I’m just gonna go ahead and say this was done deliberately
There is no good explanation here man. Either way makes them look bad
It’s actions like this that make law-abiding citizens angry. Saying things are still in “under investigation” make it look like the city is protecting their own, hoping things will blow over with time, which can make citizens even angrier. It doesn’t take long to figure out what happened and make immediate amends.
“Under investigation” is just another way of saying “We will do whatever it takes to make sure these cops keep their jobs. Because we feel they deserve their badges.”
???? Homophobic remarks are hate crimes
The cops should e charged immediately
Nah, still free speech whether you like it or not
The fruit cakes are upset again😅😅😅😅
Haha he forgot to use the back door
Shocking abuse of power. Go back and look at other stories on this department, this isn’t the first time something like this happened. This department needs to be cleaned. The municipal government needs to be cleaned.
One on duty officer killed another Kaitlyn Alix 3 years ago playing ‘Russian roulette’ and allegedly snorting cocaine. STMPD is a terrorist organization
Not shocking at all
This is why you need to set up cameras everywhere, so no one can misinterpret anything.
This is why cops should have body cams
@@rellyjthey did have body cam but didn’t want to release them
@@muhdridhwan8401 which is BS and they shouldn’t be able to deny that to the public.
When bar owners and local residents are left to clean up the mess left by the police, you know you have some serious police corruption issues in your town. An officer is driving recklessly and crashes his cruiser into a bar and the bar owner who was asleep ends up in handcuffs?!?! Aside from a reckless driving charge for the officer who was driving, it sounds like some officers need to lose their jobs over this incident.
If only you knew how things worked. Theyre blocking up the place temporarily. Their insurance or the police insurance will jabe an adjuster contact an ins repair contractor to either board up the place or the ins pays the owner for it. And they scope the damage and give an estimate for repairs. You took this completely out of context. As for the rest, spare us your dim, narrow and glib interpretation and find out the charges for the owner. Grow up, sell out.
First of all it seems you all ready hate police so you are being biased second police are still human they make mistakes! And the guy assaulted a police officer when he shoved him
Here comes the alphabet people now 😂
???
Indeed, and it all could’ve been avoided if the police weren’t acting stupid 8 ways from Sunday!
People like you can’t stand for human rights but abuse of cop power 🙄 this is why cops are getting away with things nowadays
lol. Just lol. Wow. What a poor, poor, sad, poor world. The brightest and the best? lol what a sad world.
EVERYONE is now voting TRUMP 2024 as his popularity SKYROCKETS
TRUMP 2024….TRUMP 2028
not colorado
NBC News hates the police
Stl city cops weird
The guy is obviously drunk the city would of obviously paid for the damages
Any other time, this would be considered a hate crime…
There is no way their first impulse after an honest-to-god accident is to ask for the homeowner’s ID. One it makes no sense, and two they’d be shaken up. Plus the explanation for the crash makes no sense. Why do they have to swerve to avoid a parked car? How’d that take them *all the way off the road and into a building?*
Hopefully the cops were doing something incredibly irresponsible with that car, because the alternative explanation is that this was a targeted attack. Not that either would stop the bootlickers from defending them.
EDIT: i saw the footage of the crash. The car was never in their path and they turned AFTER passing it…
The cops were drunk
He ran a red light moments before. He did need to swerve to avoid the car but he seemed to be out of control well before that. Could have killed someone.
The local news always takes the officer’s word first as if they dont ever lie.
Dude, you never put hands on a cop. You guys could have, and still should, come away as the winner here but why complicate things by throwing hands?
So you’re saying you wouldn’t protect yourself from a drunk guy that just drove through your living room and then started assaulting you?
Sounds like a wussy who would roll over without knowing your rights. Don’t be a victim all your life
Cops need to stop acting like they are above the law. They are human not gods.
I think the FBI needs to investigate this department
Drove straight in
Why would he admit on tape that his husband put his hands on a cop. He just became the cops number one witness.
I was thinking the same thing.
That police 🚔 suv. May have had sugar in its tank !! 😮😢😅🎉😂
😂 parked car 😂
This all could’ve been avoided if they owned a real bar.
Would the Pauli exclusion principle have changed, allowing the car to phase thru solid matter? I’m confused by this idiotic logic 🤔
@@doriancoreyscloset421 No surprise that you’re confused and triggered. The silly bar owners would probably concur with your sentiment.
@@ossoduro7794 no surprise that you would not place accountability where it should be. If you bend over that much for police, you and the bar owner have more in common than you thought
😂😂😂
@@doriancoreyscloset421 I’ve said nothing about the police; you did, and therefore, you’re trying to project your fantasies.
🤣🤣
Cop wanted to get in bad 🎉
Good job confirming your lover assaulted the police. You will be summoned to court.
Lol, how would you react if cops drunkenly drive their car through your house and then arrested you for not answering their questions and refusing to explain why they are destroying your property xD
@@ravenblood1954 COMPLY. Isn’t that what y’all said about the George Floyds of America?
😂Sure he lost control
I thought they love the rough tough cops and cuffs
They usually get rammed from the rear.
Any Casualties🤤?
“Serve and protect”
You spelled “swerve” wrong.
When you can’t go through the back door…
@philipdefranco
More overt police abuse at the same time Trump is about to win the Repuglican nomination. The United States has become a second-world nation. Get out if you can!
OMG! Dude should not be talking on camera without a lawyer present 🤦. You just made the case 5x harder for a lawyer to win. 🤡
Sounds like a hate crime to me.
cops, can’t have organized crime groups without cops loyalty to communism. As communism gets worse, gangs get worse, so do the cops against the civilians population backing up the gangs and the regime. Police as a disease, that turns to final stage cancer in communism. Haiti lost its ability to use cops to prevent civilians from defending themselves against the gangs, and only once the police were gone were the people able to mount a counter offensive to take their communities back. The African Islamic world is gaining power, so I fear for places like Haiti when Muslims support all terror groups world wide with guns.
Cop was looking for the lover that spurned him. Poor little piggy.
That looked like a drunk driveing cop!
These gutless politicians are nothing but cowards! No one had to give ID… This was an intimidation effort and nothing more than that!
I just would like to know the history with that bar and those officer .And as well as that precinct they work for..That might explain somethings ..Also is this bar known for any scamdelous activities …
That isn’t the way police should be dealing with bars suspected of having scandalous activities.
Having an undercover cop hang out inside the bar taking notes would be better.
Ahhh The Boys In Blue strike again! Such lovely drivers too. Clearly they’re hiring only the best to be police officers these days!
everyone knows cops cant drive
Seems like a hate crime
I see a lawsuit in the making.
You don’t have a husband because you are a MAN.
Well thats Ga eeeee
Did he get rear ended?
🎵”park that truck in my garage “
Now thats being desperate
Husband.😅
Same thoughts. A man calling a man his husband is so dystopian. Sick world we live in these days.
DRUNK COPSSS
Cops intoxicated on shift
comments are so disconnected from reality
They’re all against the cop? You defending the cop?
@@ghost8178 that’s not how this works bro. 😂 just because someone rear ends you doesn’t mean you come out swinging. That’s EXACTLY what happened in this situation. Must be humiliating to relinquish some of the money they could have won in court
@ghost8178 Meanwhile, the police department isn’t funding loss of revenue and or property destruction. Lol just some “generous” people letting the police off the hook all Willy nilly
@@campbellzachc hold on..
You were there??? (I’m not claiming to say exactly what happened but after looking at the evidence, the police are clearly in the wrong)
cops lying. classic.
1:35 look at them eyes, hopped up on them perc 30s, no doubt.
The mayor commented on the crash “we know nothing”
I don’t believe the police insulted them…i think hes lying
Such an obvious hate crime.
So where is the DUI test for the officer?
Cops are never wrong. Just ask them.
Guy has every right to come out and be mad at the police. And it was only after the cop made derogatory comments towards him that he became violent. If that cop called my mother or my wife a derogatory word, as a man you think I am going to let that stand? Should I? He didn’t and this will never reach a jury of his peers because they will scare him into a plea deal when the truth is there is no way they would convince 12 people to say he was guilty after hearing why he did it.
This cop was most definitely drunk. He lied about his story multiple times and all of his fellow officers refused to give him a breathalyzer. He’ll be back on the streets in a month remember that.
Never trust a cop.
cops were DRUNK
WHAT A PATHETIC LIE FROM THE POLICE🙃🙃 Drugged or drunken police who was over speeding
The cover-up is starting to have quite a stink.
classic hate crime
Swerve and protect
