This almost identical thing happened to my beautician. She was at a party and her estranged husband walked in with his girlfriend. She was rather intoxicated and the two women got into a fight. The police were called, took her to lockup with numerous charges, including intoxication . Several hours later she was throwing up, intense pain and semi unconscious. She was begging for help and was told to settle down and go to sleep. Other jail mates were screaming to help her.. she was dead the next morning with a ruptured appendix.
FAST:
Face: facial drooping, partial paralysis, twisting
Arms: weakness in arms, inability to hold both arms up.
Speech: slurred, babble, gibberish ...
Time: to call 911 ... and hope you don’t get cops.
Because they’re too damn dumb to remember FAST.
You have to be out of your mind to be a cop in Minnesota, the way that police are treated in the crap state, while at the same time, felons are almost worshiped.
why is he driving with blurred vision? If it was bad enough to cause him to leave early it must have been going on for awhile. If you have trouble seeing it is a good idea to not drive, especially in metro traffic.
Muting the body camera is indicative of malice.
Any police officer who at any time while on duty messes his or her body cam should be instantly fired with a recommendation never to work in law enforcement again anywhere.
The only exception is a malfunction which must be reported immediately.

The cop made a dangerous assumption and it’s going to be a very costly one. “Your tax dollars at work” should not be paying for it.
Anyone you would not “suspect”?
I don’t see it as indicative of malice. I see it as indicative of a lazy person who made stupid mistakes and was slowly coming to that conclusion.
Malice is a very different driving force than fear of having laziness and stupidity uncovered. But in this case, the end result is the same. And the taxpayers are going to pay for it.
As someone who gets migraines that will put me under the desk that is what I would have done but I assume the gentleman did not get strokes habitually and so probably did not know exactly how bad it could get.
But it need not have been going on for a while. It can hit very fast and hard.
My grand dad honored and respected the police when he was a kid in NYC - now days, not so much. I was stopped once just because the cop wanted a date.
When he told his boss at the post office he had to leave early because of blurred vision you would think someone would have thought to help him.
I’ve read of several cases of people suffering from diabetes or strokes who end up getting treated like drunk drivers, beaten, neglected etc. Police must be better trained and held responsible when they blow it, like they did in this case.
” I was stopped once just because the cop wanted a date.”
Odd, that’s never happened to me. All they ever wanted was my money.............
Yeah, he said he’s seen me on the same road and stopped me because he thought I had a brake light out (I didn’t) then started chatting me up.
Mr. Floyds family received 27 million.
This person family should get twice that much.
Guy at my job had a stroke.
It was obviously a stroke.
Cops show up and insist on a field sobriety test.
I walk up and mention he has hemispherical impairment, left side impaired.
They finally take a good look and tell the ambulance to finally go.
Took forever to get them to do so.
Nobody actually listened and looked at the symptoms until I got heated about it.
Even the ambulance was taking their sweet time.
Someone who trained in deescalation.
Time for spouse to lawyer up.
