you know this is pretty
timing.....this week we are working out of town, working in Chamberlain, SD. On the Missouri River. Really beautiful here.
This is a great pic for this story, it really happened....I hope they do a news story...anyways
we were eating supper at a local place here before checking into our hotel for the week and there was a call for a robbery with a knife. We were watching hockey and the call came over....(we have a Indian reservation close by so it happens more than it should). The alarm goes off at a local gas station...there are 5 of us eating so two of us stay and eat and three go. We didn't all go because there are 5 on duty cops here at all times and a fully staffed sheriff department and a BIA (bureau of India Affairs) with 7 full time officers.
So we continue to eat, I go to pay for all the checks of the guys who took off and we see a squad car driving down the street chasing a guy running. Now this is not anything weird but then we see Tommy riding the push bumper like this guy only Tommy is upright pointing his Taser at the guy. As the car catches up the robber Tommy discharges his Taser hits the robber in each butt cheek. We about die laughing. We learn later that Tommy was running after the guy and slipped on some ice and went down, the squad car driven buy another buddy thought he was shot or something and pulls up to check on Tommy, Tommy gets up jumps on the hood and says get that SOB!!! Then its all over but the laughing.
The best part is it all on camera on the cars dash cam....I want a copy of this drive by Tasing so bad I can't stand it. If I ever do get my hands on a "unofficial" copy I will post it here very discreetly. It was so
I could not stand it. We don't get videos ever so I doubt I will ever get a copy but I will try my darndest.
I was even hesitant post this because its so unbelievable, but it was just a strange coincidence this picture appears. I am still laughing about it now thinking about it. I really hope it makes the news! OMG
