She Allegedly Went on a Simple Jog in Her Toe Shoes. So Why Did She End Up...in Handcuffs?
The Blaze ^ | February 21, 2014 | Dave Urbanski

It allegedly started with her jogging in her toe shoes and sporting headphones. It ended in video of her screaming and being led away in handcuffs. What happened in between is a matter of debate, but video showing parts of the incident is certainly gaining traction online.

Whatever the woman did to get the attention of Austin, Texas police, a witness’ video of cops detaining her on a city sidewalk Thursday morning then escorting her to a nearby squad car indicate she was not happy with their actions.

Student Chris Quintero, who the Daily Texan reported witnessed the arrest, said he saw the woman jogging with headphones on when police ran after her. When the woman failed to stop, the officer grabbed her by the arm and handcuffed her, Quintero said.

According to a statement to The Daily Texan from police spokeswoman Lisa Cortinas: “[In this case], the call is titled failure to identify.”

Great use of city resources there, fatsos. Tell me now that we're not living in a police state.

They went after the wrong Austin girl in tennis shoes. They should have been looking for the older blond one wearing pink tennis shoes. I could have supported that beat down...

The charge was failure to identify.

I thought that requiring ID’s was RACIST?

Brown vs. State of Texas. Brown 1, Texas 0. Supremes decided it. Id is not required for joggers.

Pretty much. But it's liberals that will pay that bill, being Austin.

It's Austin, you might have to wear something that indicates your sexual preference.

Because the Po-Lice had the power to stop her, jack her up, handcuff her and haul her away.

I'm out of suggestions about how to get control of these knotheads.

I can’t believe that what used to be the beautiful city of Austin has been turned into such a cess pool of libtards.

Usually happens in every city that has a large university, though—and Austin certainly has that.

And yes—larda$$ should not even be a cop—IMHO, of course.

Judging by their girths, those cops must’ve been out of breath when they caught up with her and were plenty pissed.

It’s worse in CA. The cops out here mark your tires now if you don’t move your car for more than 3 days. Then they start ticketing. I had the flu and this happened to me. Thank God the police took care of all the bloods and the crypts so they have time to harass tax payers for prince jerry.
