VIEWS FROM MY SQUAD CAR: Levitation
http://viewsfrommysquadcar.blogspot.com/2015/08/levitation.html
VIEWS FROM MY SQUAD CAR. Life as a beat cop. You can't make this stuff up. Thursday, August 6, 2015. Today, a guy wanted to report that he had parked his car in his apartment building parking lot last night, and when he got up this morning the back end of the car had been moved 4 feet to the right. The front end was just where he left it; just the rear end had been moved. How did you keep from laughing? I admire your restraint, OC. August 8, 2015 at 6:01 PM. August 31, 2015 at 9:07 AM. I'm a police offic...

VIEWS FROM MY SQUAD CAR. Life as a beat cop. You can't make this stuff up. Wednesday, August 12, 2015. A lot of people see things like shootouts and police chases and those are the things that make them say I could never do that job. For me, I see videos like this one and that is enough for me! August 12, 2015 at 7:49 AM. August 12, 2015 at 9:16 AM. Lady, do yourself (and the world) a favor and stop skipping your meds. August 13, 2015 at 6:11 AM. August 21, 2015 at 10:20 PM.

VIEWS FROM MY SQUAD CAR: November 2014
http://viewsfrommysquadcar.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
VIEWS FROM MY SQUAD CAR. Life as a beat cop. You can't make this stuff up. Friday, November 28, 2014. While working a DUI enforcement shift, I pull over a guy going the wrong way on a 1-way street. He says he doesn't have any ID on him, and gives me a name and date of birth. For some reason, I don't believe he is who he says he is. Partly because I can see he has a wallet in his back pocket. Officer Cynical: "What's your Social Security number? Kit Walker: "I don't know; I can never remember it.". Turns ...

VIEWS FROM MY SQUAD CAR: March 2015
http://viewsfrommysquadcar.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
VIEWS FROM MY SQUAD CAR. Life as a beat cop. You can't make this stuff up. Tuesday, March 31, 2015. Cops have people come up to them just to talk all the time. Often it's a parent with a kid, and I like those interactions. Sometimes it's some drunk with nothing better to do, and I usually disengage myself from that immediately. And sometimes it's a seemingly normal person, who turns out to be from another galaxy. Mrs Gort: "Excuse me, officers, but what is this place? Officer Cynical: "Yes.". Mrs Gort: (...

VIEWS FROM MY SQUAD CAR: There's One Problem With Traffic Stops

VIEWS FROM MY SQUAD CAR. Life as a beat cop. You can't make this stuff up. Tuesday, August 4, 2015. There's One Problem With Traffic Stops. You eventually have to walk up there, even when it's a murder suspect and you don't know it. I have always been curious if that was an urban legend or fact. Ive never noticed when I am pulled over. But the people coming to his aide? That was a bit of balm after the video the other day when no one bothered to help the officer lying in the intersection. Would you know ...

VIEWS FROM MY SQUAD CAR. Life as a beat cop. You can't make this stuff up. Tuesday, June 30, 2015. Just Another Traffic Stop. Monday, June 29, 2015. The Coldest I've Ever Been. As I was straining to find the accident scene through my side window, a face suddenly appeared through the snow, pressed up against the window glass. The face was cut to shreds and covered with blood. I jumped about a foot. I had found my accident. Thursday, June 25, 2015. Wednesday, June 24, 2015. I can't help but beat this dead ...
