Re: What would you have done?

Hmmm.

Story in the paper today in the USAtoday about a crazy young man (36) who lived on the street. His dad was always worried about him. Didn't take his medicine. Police were called to the scene of cars being broken into. Ran from police when they wanted to search his backpack.

Police could not subdue him with six shots from the tazer. They ended up beating him, but he died. Caught on video by a passerby and six police officers have now all been suspended. This is in CA which makes it worse for the police. Anyway story was written from the side of the grieving father (who is probably now sueing).

This post sort of paints a different picture of a crazy street person. One that is not as sympathetic.

Police have a tough job.
