Miami officer arrested at gunpoint, accused of going 120 mph on turnpike to second job - Miami-Dade - MiamiHerald.com

He thought he had a personal police escort, right?

I've never seen this happen before

Speed limits are different down there. We were doing 85 on the way to Lauderdale and people were blowing past us. Two motorcycles screamed past us like we were stopped.

Seems when you are using city property like that it could go worse for the guy.

Can't say I've seen it either but I'm pretty sure I've heard of cases where officers have been pulled over. Can't remember details though.

I have heard a story about an IPD and Marion county Sheriff going at it on the side of the highway threatening to arrest each other....

That could be a funny conversation. "You can't arrest me! I arrested you first!"

Why would FHP draw their weapon on the MIAMI POLICE

I have. Years ago a Trooper stopped one of our officers going to an alarm (3:00 a.m.). He was close and turned off his lights and siren. Officer was on the Lloyd with no traffic going about 75/50. Trooper stops him and asks him where he was going to. He told him and left. Back then troopers were told they were the best. Things have changed.

I try repping you, but it said I have to spread it around

+1000 to the arresting officer.

But once again the double standard is shown when the high-speed police chase is being degraded to a traffic offense.

López could not be reached for comment. As of Saturday, he was still assigned to regular duty at the Miami Police Department, said Cmdr. Delrish Moss, “because at this point it’s a traffic offense.”

Why would FHP draw their weapon on the MIAMI POLICE

For her own safety. Based on the article FHP turned on her lights and siren yet the MP car "driver" refused to stop and continued on. Note I say MP car "driver" because while we all know now that it was a MP officer at the time of the chase the FHP did not know that. She could have assumed that was the cause but then why would the car not stop? So perhaps a BG had taken the car after killing the actual MP officer.

So when the car finally stopped what would you do? How would you approach the car? Since the car had no stopped on your 2 prior "lights/sound" on.

The FHP was a lady, maybe she had P M S

 

[Arm America]

You would have thought the MPO would have had enough sense to
get his car completely off of the road before stopping.

i wonder if MIAMI POLICE will try to get back at FLORIDA HIGHWAY PATROL

of course they will. but as long as they are arresting each other they are leaving us alone.

 

[gunman41mag]

Next time MIAMI POLICE pulls me over for speeding, I'll tell them, I'm running late too work

 

[Denny347]

Nah, we'll make time for you.

 

[public servant]

Nah, we'll make time for you.

Just look for him in the parking lot behind the bar.
