Abc13 ^ | 8-12-15 | Unattributed

The Bradford County Sheriff's Office has released video of a confrontation between a motorist and a police officer who stopped to help him in north Florida.

Sheriff Gordon Smith said Lawtey police officer Jay Raulerson was dispatched after passing cars called to report a man in a silver Toyota stopped in the median of Highway 301 who was out of the SUV and trying to wave down vehicles.

After Raulerson pulled up behind the Toyota, the video shows the man jump out and begin yelling at the officer as he approaches the driver side of the police car.

BTW, the title of the YouTube video is misleading, but we can see that in the video.

The man from the Toyota was apparently verbally threatening and advancing aggressively. It sounds like he said, “Please cut the [expletive] lights off, or I’m gonna put it in reverse.”

It was also very risky for the man to jump out and point at the patrolman like that.

It’s not shocking. The assclown got what he deserved. He approached the officer in a threating manner. I glad his badass self got zapped.

Laughing about this one! After zapping him, the cop asks "You all right?". The motorist meekly responds "yes...". Good answer when laying on the ground handcuffed!

That guy was acting pretty aggressively, yelling, pointing, then fast-walking towards the officer in a threatening way. Probably no choice other than to light him up. He’s lucky the officer just used the taser.

My Dad’s favorite response to someone shaking a fist or waving a forefinger: “Put that away unless you want it behind your back.”
