Don't worry, its not too gruesome, just shows you the reality of some things the police have to do out there....

Bizarre behaviour but seen quite often in A&E. people are very strange at times.

Seen it before on a cop show.Outrageous,all the lives put at risk.A little ironic that a old Saab had stopped.

[96terrano]

Aye, hope I never run anyone over like that!

That Saab was a beauty! Love those old classics, have had 5 of them lol

Seen the same thing. Did 8 years as a bobby. Had to take down a lad on drugs who was threatening to stab his g/f. Pre pepper spray and stab vest days and the situation meant we couldn't wait for backup. Two us nearly went over a balcony and down the stairs with him and he just shrugged off a side handled baton. In the end we had to sit on him.

Funny how people commented on the Police being incompetent in that video but how can you see stuff like that coming ? You get training in self defence but when it comes down to it, you just end up in a kind of brawl with these nutters. It's not like cop drama tv.

The stories I could tell you about people....

No question about it mate but the 2nd time she got up and she went for that opposite carriageway, she is endangering other peoples lives!!!!!

I would have had the kosh out and gone straight for the sides of her knee caps and dragged her out of the road

Pure scum the both of them!!!!!

I see your point and I would have taken her off her feet, but I'm sure they were mindful of the cameras filming and whilst they would have been justified, it almost certainly affected their decision making, that and the fact that they would have had her possible injuries in mind.

There are certain holding techniques used for prisoner compliance that cause a lot of pain without injury and I've seen druggies just laugh them off whilst a normal person would whimper and behave.

Pure luck no one else was hurt.
