Of course he would never train his k9 to hit on a car
How do they know if the home owner was shooting at them or not?! They was to busy shooting at each other! 🤦♂ 🤦♂
Sounds like 2 kids playing with guns! 😂 😂
This is why I have motion activated flood lights and security cameras.
As an aside, the cops i knew were all highly aware that some of these situations were very gray.
I dealt with a number of calls where people drunk, passed out in their cars (in traffic or parking lots). Found them with firearms on their lap.
It was always scary to me. Because i felt like it was very high risk/high liability. On the one hand, you have a suspected dwi, maybe. On the other, if they wake up while youre assessing and shoot you… they're likely to have a pretty solid self-defense argument. If you shoot them, with little known info, it will be highly controversial.
Similar analysis moving around a yard after dark. Imo
8:48 didnt you ever watch turner and hooch?
Think what hes saying is the dog was his friend. He misses the dog, they had a companionship. I don't doubt that, k9 officers i knew were close to their dogs
With technology in robotics moving forward like it is, maybe we should consider utilizing them in a first contact kind of way so if they need to release some video game tension it won't involve innocent people.
Sikking attack dogs on ppl isnt therapy anymore? Wtf
imagine being able to trespass and then magdump in some dude's backyard and then just say "my bad" and move on with life
Unprofessional! The Gang Member in blue act like criminals! Ends qualified immunity only then will something change!
"check your fire, you just hit me with a rubber ducky"
Wait? I can't just fire a hand gun into a building like I'm playing a video?! Quits police academy
I noticed the Marine Raider emblem on your shirt. My grandfather was a Marine Raider. I'm curious about your shirt as very few people know about the Marine Raiders.
Listen to this narrsasist, he doesnt even care about innocent resedents in the nebouhood, sitten thete unloading into the dark in resedential area, and all this idiot, cares about his dog, Who cares about innocent civilians.
K9 cop should fall back to his safe space with a cup of hot chocolate. Snowflakes are wearing uniforms now.
The dog was his therapy? Therapy? What kind of therapy? And he is allowed to legally carry a gun? He refers to the dog as his therapy. Is this a red flag to anyone other than me?
Taking the dog away is worst punishment?
How about taking his gun away, jail-time for attempted murder or any number of other felonies? How about termination? Losing his LE license?
This is what happens when you undertrain people and staff idiots
Never under any circumstance underestimate the power of stupidity.
Nobody said anything about the other day shooting where dude was fleeing and u literally see bullet impacts on buildings and cars around them. Hell it’s in most shootings videos
Moron… If your cop needs a therapy dog… Fire that guy. What is this world coming to?
I thought cops leaving a cuffed girl on the traintracks was the Darwin win, but this takes the cake.
They didn't get enough cowboys n indians when they were kids?
These 'law enforcement officials' don't seem to know or care much about the law
The poor guy in the house should never have been charged.
That clown should have been sent back to the academy.
I do have to say, taking his dog away shouldn’t be legal. K9’s live with their officer. They are family pets that are also trained for the job
Those cops should be dealt with the way the military would do it. They should be dismissed with cause and charged with all the same crimes as the home owner that shot at them.
Why were the officers shooting @ all?
Can see your target what if little Johnny is out w his nerf gun hunting the family lion
7:06 How old is he 18 ?
Would you people please read the 1933 bankruptcy act may 7 (or 9 , can't remember), sec.13 H-1303
How do we know that the initial shots were fired from the homeowner now that we do know the incompetence of the two morons shooting one at the other ?
Every situation is different, but why didn’t they try to negotiate or speak with the homeowner? They screwed the pooch IMO.
Anybody else think that the officer looks a bit like a creeper.
Weak men need therapeutic dogs at work. Get this guy out of there altogether.
Weak men create hard times. These scared, jumpy officers are weak.
I don't think they should've taken the dog. That punishes the dog as well as the cop. If a cop, or any govt employee, is given an animal, it should be their animal until the animal dies or is willingly given away. That's just my perspective as a pet owner.
Neighbors are lucky they didn't flick a lighter and get shot at.
Quack Quack Quack Quack Quack!
This video makes me proud to be from Clearwater.
He shot another officer in the name of officer safety? Come on, not even a cop could actually be that stupid.
Oh great! now this officer is going to be back on the street without his therapy dog, sounds like he needs a complete psych evaluation before he returns to duty.
Cop needing a dog for therapy needs to be pulled for being unstable. Shooting at each other and neighbor houses, theese cops are a clear, present danger to each other and the people at large. Reckless and if they failed to Id or present a warent then the homeowner was the only person with lawful reason to open fire on trespassers.
You should be arrested
I had an extremely unpleasant experience with Clearwater police….
We were there to visit a friend who lived in a condo in the area near the aquarium.
We had our tiny camper and parked along the street.
My wife being extremely disabled needed to use the restroom….the camper is her bathroom. I built a lift in it for her. I have a bad back and a hernia…she has scoliosis…lifting her is emergencies only….and that's only IF a large enough family restroom is even available to fit her and her wheelchair and myself and enough room to move around.
Officer pulls up while she was in the air with the lift ….she has an ostomy bag and was leaking badly. Officer kept me outside for over a half hour ….after I explained the situation and that I needed to care for her….he didn't care . He threatened me and said I had to remove the camper within an hour . I told him there was no way I could take care of her and get out of there in that amount of time…he didn't care and said he would be back in an hour and if we were still there he was going to arrest me and have the camper towed.
Hour and a half later when I got done caring for my wife/cleaning up..I had saved the ostomy bag ….waiting for the officer to show up and try something. Even with my health issues , I had over 30 years of martial arts training/teaching. …and had every intention of making that officer literally eat the ostomy bag. I was so pissed off I could see red.
It was fortunate for him he never showed back up and we left.
I called the department and told them what happened and they didn't care either. All they said is it's the cities law that we can't park a camper along the street.
Everything is black and white…and has nothing to do with right and wrong.
