Man Running From Cops Jumped From Mall Balcony onto Ice Rink
Vice ^ | 25 June 2025 | Ashley Fike

Posted on 06/28/2025 5:29:01 AM PDT by DUMBGRUNT

“He jumped straight down, tried to land, and when he hit the ice, his legs literally went out from under him—they snapped,”

Mall security sees a lot. A suspect swan-diving onto an ice rink mid-escape and breaking his legs? That’s probably a new one.

"... the suspect shouted, “Come get me,” right before jumping."

I’m starting to think that it’s a cultural problem...

Yes, I think 2-300,000 were moved from New Orleans. It took LA from purple as a state and made it solid red since.

The guy was already on thin ice before he jumped.

There’s a name for it, popped up on social media. Black fatigue is what it’s being called. Not as deadly as Black Death but black fatigue results in the afflicted constantly rolling their eyes and calling realtors to relocate to unaffected map areas.

He’s probably never experienced an ice rink before.

Ice is HARD!

My son has played hockey from six years old thru playing in a National Championship tournament in college.

You can get a concussion from just tipping over - even with a helmet on.

It sounds like the perp has delusions of being Tom Cruise.

—”Those are femur or hip fractures! “

Very sad.

Sadly, it was not a compound that took out his femoral artery, and he could have quickly bled out on the ice.

Worse still, this one can still vote and breed.

Taxpayers will be paying $$$ for his rehab, plus $$$ for his lifetime support as a cripple unable to work.
Forcing him to become a full-time drug dealer.

This jamoke came in at about fourth place in the ghetto lotto.

Yes, the Zamboni driver didn’t have to clean the frozen blood from the rink.

No way! I was in New Orleans maybe a month before Katrina. What a dump. LA's gain is Texas' loss.

If I remember correctly, there were news reports shortly thereafter about how crime in Houston spiked after the Cajun refugees showed up.

—”I’m starting to think that it’s a cultural problem...”

The problem is that TV/movie screens are hypnotic jewels, transporting users to an imaginary land from which some never return.

A place where, when a person is struck by a bullet, they are either suddenly dead or healing well with an arm sling.

No around-the-clock attendants to feed the paralyzed victim, no colostomy bags...

An imaginary land created and maintained by Hollywood.

That brings up the question: What was the ice time cost for Mr Hopalong?

Whoever called it a swan dive is unfamiliar with the term and never seen a swan outside a Disney movie.

It was funny in that when he landed he lay there on the ice, well, of course. But, cold ice does quell pain for a bit. And, judging how his legs are twisted he is gonna need all the pain relief he can get.

And, yes, I do think it is funny when thieves get hurt.

There is a good chance he will sue the mall and win.
