Pedestrian run over by Tacoma police officer surrounded by crowd
KIRO7 ^

Posted on 01/23/2021 8:49:37 PM PST by TigerClaws

A Tacoma police officer whose SUV was surrounded by a crowd was seen on camera running over a pedestrian Saturday night. The incident was captured on camera and distributed on social media. Tacoma police officer Wendy Haddow said officers were called to Ninth South and Pacific where cars were blocking the intersection and doing burnouts and doughnuts. A crowd of about 100 people had gathered to watch.

A Tacoma police officer who arrived soon found himself surrounded by people who were banging on the windows and SUV in a threatening way, Haddow said. Some of the SUV’s windows may have been broken.

As the officer tried to move out of the crowd, he backed up, but was unable to get out, so he drove forward. Haddow said she believed one person fell as the SUV moved forward and was run over. She said one person was taken to a local hospital with minor injuries.

Video posted to Twitter showed a person under the police SUV as it drove away.

If the person dies, those banging on the SUV should be charged with felony murder.

Looks like it was Mexicans doing street racing from this thread.

Cop rolls up and they surround the SUV. Bang on it. He takes off.

Some people - who weren’t AntiFa and weren’t protesting and were all at a hot dog stand having a hot dog - did something

Yeah, and the powers that be can use that facial recognition
software made so famous in Washington, D. C. recently.

As if...

The notorious Cherry Street clog burglar has met his maker.

He will steal clogs no more.

Poorly done headline.

For me it said that a pedestrian was surrounded by a crowd after being run over.

This is the sort of outright propaganda I'm talking about. "Pedestrian", my ass. Rioter, vandal and perpetrator is more like it.

Google is endorsing Brownshirts with this reporting.

Nazi Germany is forming right before our eyes.

Just one officer responded? Did Tacoma already defund its police department?

My old stomping grounds. Sort of. I worked downtown.

I don't remember a South Ninth and Pacific. I'm guessing they meant Ninth and South Pacific Ave.

Not exactly a nice area when I lived there 40 years ago. Looks like it hasn't gotten better.

I've decided to get a face shield and blacken everything except eyes. I can wear it everywhere. I can pay cash and not use my reward cards. I can become anonymous. Facial recognition software? I'm wearing sunglasses under the blackened shield. And that beer gut that's hiding my 6 pack abs, well that's actually mine but I haven't heard of any belly recognition software.
