Five Arrested After Deputy Gets Attacked By Mob Of Men (Illegals in FL)

LAKE COUNTY, Fla. -- Five men, including four illegal immigrants have been caught after cops say they attacked a Lake County deputy. It happened on Long Acres Road in Sorrento, just off State Road 46, Sunday night.

Lake County sheriff's deputies used their helicopter to search the area in an attempt to find the men who beat up Deputy Cliff McMennamy.

"You wouldn't think a noise complaint would generate something like that," the deputy told Eyewitness News in an interview over the phone Monday morning.

McMennamy said he was checking out a complaint of a loud party when 35-year-old Miguel Gomez threw a beer bottle at his car. McMennamy chased him down and hit him with a taser. The deputy said he was then surrounded.

McMennamy was punched above his right eye, hit with a beer bottle and even kicked in the jaw.

"While it was in progress, my worst fear was one of them having a weapon, a gun or a knife," he said.

Before they took his taser and bullets, McMennamy tried to radio for help, but it didn't get reception.

Amazingly, he used his cell phone to call while he fought away the attackers. The Lake County Sheriff's Office says their motivation was murder; they were trying to pull the gun from his holster.

"This is a bad situation that could have been worse," said Sgt. John Herrell, Lake County Sheriff's Office.

The 27-year-old deputy has been a member of the sheriff's office for two years. He said he'll be back to work on Wednesday.

"It won't be hard. I wouldn't trade this job for the world," he said.

Deputies are still looking for seven other men involved in the attack. Four of the five men they've caught are going to be deported since they were in the country illegally.

How about making that “GRINGO DE MEXICO” into “GRINGO DEMENTO”

I suggest your neighbor contact an attorney immediately. Since she is being illegally pressured, she should consider a suit, possibly obtaining recordings if local laws allow taping illegal activities, etc.

Welcome to the Turd World and its typical behavior patterns.

The lesson here should be clear and obvious. Never ask a group of hispanics to turn down their music...

In your very insightful post #23, you wrote:

“3. His brother Jeb is married to a native of Mexico and his nieces and nephews are mixed blood. And before you scream “ethnocentric bigot” at me, there’s nothing inherently wrong with that. But that fact — and items 1 and 2 – DO predispose him to a warm and fuzzy feeling for folks from south of the Rio Grande.”

Elder Bush, was widely quoted as having referred to teh grandchildren as “the little brown ones”, for what that’s worth.

Another reason to send back up routinely for disturbance calls.

Damn straight. Anyone with a knowledge of the racial disturbances of the 1960s knows that this is essential. Do a Wiki search on "Plainfield Riots" and see what happens when a single policeman confronts an angry mob (he gets killed with his own gun.

Oh, and another reason to seal the borders.

Should have happenned 20 years ago.

Hmm, Surrounded, assaulted,multiple times with deadly weapons (bottle, booted feet) Why did the good officer not start ventilating these scumbags?

While he was busy swinging with one had, holding his cell phone with the other, what if they figured out how to unlock his apparently level 3 security holster?

Me, I think I would have done it slightly differently. Deportation results in system knowledge, they'll be BAAAACK!

God Bless

What am I missing here? They attack a deputy and attempt to kill him and they just get deported so they can be back here in a few weeks or less????

This is only about a hundred miles from your neighborhood, right?
*****************************************************
This was 5-10 miles from me ,, this area is filled with plant nurseries, ornamentals , ferns and trees ... The article didn’t name the exact location but I believe it’s a trailer park off the east side of Plymouth Sorrento rd. somewhere in the 4000-6000 address range ,,, the cheap kind for field workers, old trailers bought for very little and dragged in ,, no paved roads and a no-name “groceria” with cold beer within walking distance. If you car is stolen you can bet it’ll show up in one of these camps sooner or later.

I started following the CWII ping more as a whim than anything else. But now I am beginning to wonder.

Things will get very interesting after the DNC convention in August. I plan on being prepared for just about anything by then.

So basically it is a Mexican-style “colonia” instant slum.

Great. Just what we need. South Texas in Florida.

I agree. I’d have gone for my gun, not my cell phone.

Especially if HIllary armtwists the superdelegates into nominating her, “once again, denying the black man his chance.”

It is simple. He was out numbered, and would have not been alive today if he had.

And even if he did survive, his life as a free man would be over.

I honestly think that is the plan.

Hillary is the nominee. All Obama is supposed to be is window dressing. By having a massive nation wide riot when she is anointed the candidate, it will make many vote for her who wouldn't other wise.

There is a few blogs I lurk at that talk about this, and one guy has been saying it for over a year.

If I lived there and had a rifle handy, there would be 5 dead perps.

Consequences be damned

“old trailers bought for very little and dragged in ,, no paved roads and a no-name “groceria” with cold beer within walking distance. If you car is stolen you can bet it’ll show up in one of these camps sooner or later.”

We have one here in the Coachella valley that is “home” to several thousand illegals. A coup[le of them got electrocuted by micky mouse electrical hookups a few years back and every agency in the valley and the feds have been trying to shut it down . The owner has been collecting huge rents on all the “spaces” for years but claims poverty!

Now it looks like we taxpayers are stuck with 6000 illegals to support!

Do a search on “duronille if you want to get nauaea!
