Cops Ticket Robbery Victim

[Kirk Freeman]

You know the old saw "there's never a cop when you need one"? Well, be careful of what you want.

Man fleeing robbers, allegedly runs stop sign, government agents take $228.00 from him.

Maybe there was collusion? Robbers chasing citizens into the hands of the police? Hammer and anvil? What the robbers don't take, the government will.

I think that calls for a jury trial on an infraction. Maybe subpoena the robbers as witnesses?

Funny, that excuse works for me every time I blow a stop sign.

I bet he was delivering a pizza with lots of extra bacon on it, someone smelled it and just had to have some of that sizzlin' swine goodness.

Could easily been someone in this forum.

Not enough info in the report, he prob just ran the stop sign.

More to the story. I'd like to see the distance between where the robbery occurred and where the stop sign is. Oh and time of delay. Still a dik move.

Not enough info in the report.

As lacking as that "report" is, I won't bother believing any of it until I see further.

On a side note, running a stop sign is running a stop sign.

A good bet.

Even if you have your emergency lights on.

I'd still want a jury on that ticket.

Some officers are good people, some are revenue collectors with a badge. Guess it just all depends on who see's you doing what.

...Man fleeing robbers, allegedly runs stop sign, government agents take $228.00 from him....

Perhaps he could use the "I ran the stop sign under duress" defense.

It would certainly be a kick in the nads for this guy, if this is true and is allowed to stand. I bet LEO's have heard it all--I wonder how many armed robbery victims they run across during their traffic stops.
