if he was in plain clothes and his personal car how did he have a body cam?

[@straycatttt2766]

Was it a body cam or could it have been a dash cam?

[@xancs6943]

It was the officer on duties bodycan

I’m in a life threatening situation and a female officer is who I have to depend on..

[@Torq-wy2cr]

Didn't need the description of the perp. We already knew.

[@melikebuttz4265]

I'm not waiting on three traffic lights. I'm moving around you

[@melikebuttz4265]

So now he's trying to convince us that the entire block jumped on this one guy

[@melikebuttz4265]

How did his weapon get presented in such a way in which it could be taken

@@TheHoodVoice2024You seem to care more about limiting a lawful citizens free speech than limiting criminal activity. Why do you think that is?

[@TheHoodVoice2024]

@@Farcehole free speech ? Do you really believe Americans have freedom of speech? Do you consider yourself an American conservative? do you support Israel in the war in Gaza ?

There’s an unruly crowd about to attack me and I’m a cop with qualified immunity? Everybody’s getting that smoke…🤷🏽‍♂️

That sounds way too much like a prepared statement like it's overly prepared

Wow, Philadelphia is crazy. wow

[@mariojrog9465]

What did u expect?

[@activatedcarbon158]

Most guns if you rack the slide back the round will pop out like jack in the box no need to discharge it but the officer was quick thinking and glad he’s ok. See when they didn’t move traffic after 3rd light I might’ve gone around or backed out at that hour thinking it might be a setup. We live in an era where honking your horn is equivalent to saying “eff out the way you “bichazznega” and it could cost you your life 😂😂

[@GNOBNX]

Isn’t horn honking all over that dirty city?

[@activatedcarbon158]

@@GNOBNX it was at night though in a questionable area..again you have to use your horn judiciously or be forced to use your hammer.. as to it being a dirty city? That would be most democrat run cities lol..The people are decent it is just more than a few bad apples who get out and re offend thanks to bleeding heart liberal DAs like Larry Krasner who is supported by none other than billionaire socialist change agent, George Soros..

[@mantan9400]

Wow.

[@melikebuttz4265]

He's basically just giving us a statement and then saying so take that and that's the way it is and that's the end of the story.😅

[@melikebuttz4265]

He did not identify himself as a cop LMAO if he had done that early in the process we're not having this conversation. Also what's the point of having a gun if you don't have it ready. People are crazy.😅

[@melikebuttz4265]

This is way too prepared LMAO let me help you people out real quick some idiot freaking cop just riding around with his freaking heat. And instead of being able to move around the situation some sort of way he ended up man I'm all right man..... LMAO😅

is that the blue line i hear about?

Happy mother's day isnt great

[@TheHoodVoice2024]

Why not Show the video 😂. Because the cop is lying

[@floydrodriguez8035]

And what make you think he is lying. One cop surrounded by many blacks. This is a typical George Floyd incident. The big guy is a wanted guy.

[@HandleThiSS88]

I know that cop thought this is my time. Terrible. But being an officer of the 22nd district you should know damn well to just back your car up and go the other way.

[@sammyjohnson-lg9qv]

so this is the cop's fault?

[@HandleThiSS88]

@@sammyjohnson-lg9qv go be dense under another comment 🙄

[@motorbandit7]

Why should he have to " back up"?why don't the " suspect" have to stop blocking the roadway? It's typical What can we get for Free? Mentality? 😊

@@motorbandit7 he shouldnt HAVE TO but in this city, like i stated, he should know that certain group is going to be trouble.

Yo they running illegal after hour spot and this the kinda attention they wanted

[@noregrets1855]

Lol, in short, the cop got mad because he couldn't get around the driver, he escalated the situation, got his ass kicked, someone stole his firearm so now they release this heroic story. 😒

[@jonthedon1618]

Why couldn't they be courteous and move?

[@Marvin-rh9ru]

@@jonthedon1618 People like you don't live in reality. You live in some fantasy world. What you ask, its equivalent to asking why do people cross on the red light then blame the drivers for accidents. You're at an illegal, after hours spot. Why would you expect anything courteous? Wake up. You must not be from around here. In fact, what do you expect to be nice outside after 11, 12am? You leave out at that time expect reality to happen to you. Not fantasy.

[@TheHoodVoice2024]

I was there nobody that was in the crowed were involved other than recording, and the officer was not hit by the car because the BMW was in front of the white car and the cop never flashed a badge 🤷🏽‍♂️ that’s the truth
