SAN MARCOS, Texas – A reserve sheriff's deputy is facing aggravated assault with a deadly weapon charges after police say he opened fire on a truck driver he thought had cut him off.
After nearly 15 years behind the wheel of an 18-wheeler, Frank Collins III thought he had seen it all. He was wrong.
"Never seen nothing like this," the 56-year-old said. "It's just too far-fetched."
But what the Fort Worth man experienced late Sunday night actually happened, according to San Marcos police.
Collins was driving along an Interstate 35 frontage road outside of Austin when he says he was suddenly cut off by a red pickup truck.

Same here...I knew the unhinged nut was a messkin by the name even before watching the video. They're hot-tempered people, invariably quick to anger. Even Desi Arnaz acknowledged this long ago in an "I Love Lucy" episode.
Normal CCW folks don’t do this.
The COPS are the ones doing this kind of sh1t. On and off duty.

Normal people kill people too.
People have been killing people for a looong time.
People kill people. People become police. Police kill people.
People commit crimes. People become police. Police commit crimes.
Do you think that there is a remedy to stop people from killing people and committing crimes? Do you think that there is a remedy to stop police from killing people and committing crimes?
Do you think that federalizing state and local police forces will stop people and police from killing people and committing crimes?
I don’t.
When I was around 19, I and a couple of my friends were driving on Bruce Ave. in DeFuniak Springs, FL. We were not doing anything odd, just driving along.
There is a street, Plateau St. which angles into Bruce. It has a stop sign. Well just as we approached Plateau St. A guy in a pickup just drives right through the stop sign not even slowing down.
I was able to dodge him and decided to just let it go and we drove on. A few blocks later the guy pulls us over, shows a badge and just terrorizes us about bad driving. We, seeing the badge just sat there and took it.
The next day one of my friends told the story to his father and learned the guy was a known bully who had terrorized others before. He was big and mean.
The real problem I had was what was such a known jackass doing with a reserve deputy badge.
Here’s a couple you might have missed...

Do me a favor and don’t attribute YOUR WORDS to what I WROTE.
Don’t bring up sh1t or imply what I wrote means I am for something when I never mentioned it.
That’s called projection, or transference.
His post did list a few of the threads here at FR, on law enforcement problems.
The first step in fixing a problem with government, is to make voters aware of it.
Uh.
I just asked you two questions, and then I also answered my own two questions with my own answer.
I see you don’t want to answer my questions.
Don’t flip out on me, man...
Brown on Black.
Just keep us out of the line of fire.
Well, I definitely agree that voters should be aware of problems, and I would even further agree that there is a problem with police doing things that are, ah, troubling.
For instance, just yesterday I saw the story of the police dog biting the man in the face for not getting off the sofa.
That’s messed up. I mean big time messed up.
But I am not sure what the solution to things like that is or if there is even a solution.
That is why I illustrated that people do crazy things, people become police, police do crazy things.
I also asked another person if they think that federalizing police forces would prevent such things, and I stated that I don’t think do so will would prevent such things.
But I’m pretty sure they are moving toward that action.
Your questions bring up issues that have nothing to do with this story.
Or what I wrote.
I don’t feel obligated to answer people who aren’t on topic.
Desi Arnez was cuban, not mexican...just saying.
First we end JFK’s unionization of the government, once we do that, then we can start bossing the police, and we also regain control of city government.
Actually, they do have to do with this story.
But if you don’t want to talk about it, cool.
You seem pretty disagreeable and unpleasant anyway.
I am pretty much for de-unionizing everything. I’d like to see police move away from being para-military. It seems like that status might play part in how they seem to be getting out of control.
I kind of have an impression that if police forces do become federalized, they will become even more para-military than they are now, and I definitely do not want that.
True and his role as Ricky Ricardo in "I Love Lucy" was that of a Cuban-heritage bandleader. As I recall from the episode alluded to, he and Lucy got into some kind of spat and when they were patching things up, he apologized and said something like, "...well, that's just how we hot-blooded Latins are". My take was that Arnaz was rightly characterizing Hispanics as hot-tempered and easily aroused to anger. Whether it be Cuba, Mexico or virtually all of South America, history shows that those Hispanics there are engaged in a nearly perpetual state of revolutionary coups.
Then we better get control over them.
