I f'ed up my hand arresting soe punk this morning!!

[lbstone]

At about 12:40 this morning I got a call of an erratic driver in a parking lot of a low income housing project. When I got there I spotted the car in the bottom lot. As I drove toward the car, I saw the operator rev his motor the start accelerating toward my cruiser. I slammed on the brakes, and slid sideways because of the slick road (got about a foot of the white stuff on Thursday). My cruiser was now sideways blocking the operator from passing me. He tried anyways as he got stuck in a snow bank inches from hitting my cruiser. After he realized his lowered POS Honda couldn't make it in the snow around my car, he backed down to the lower lot and appeared to get ready to ram me. I was about to jump out and put down some stop strips, this kid looked like he was all f'ed up. After a few seconds, he backed a few feet into s parking spot and started running from me on foot. He didn't get very far with his baggy pants and untied boots. When I caught up with him, I grabbed hi coat as he "tried" to push me off him. He then ended up face first into some steps a few feet away. While face down on the steps, he was reaching for his waist band. Thinking he might have a possible gun or weapon, I got him with a few blows to his back before gaining control of his arms. He fought with me the entire time and while walking him to my cruiser, the Cavalry came screaming down the hill in the form of 5 more cruisers going balls out. This is when the kid began trying to stick me with his keys while I was "escorting" him to my car with his uncuffed hands behind his back. I then threw him to the ground and got him cufffed. This is when I felt a sharp pain in my thumb (my knee was a little soar too, but not bad). Another Officer helped me "escort" the kid to an awaiting cruiser. The rest of the night, my thumb was killing me. I couldn't use my right hand at all. My supervisor requested I go to the ER after I finished my report. Several hours later I go to the ER where they do several X-rays on my hand and knee. My knee is fine, just swollen, but the Dr. said he cant tell if I fractured a particular small bone in my hand. I forget what its called but it goes from my thumb to my palm. The Dr. said I also had some "abnormalities" that he wanted to look further into. One thing of concern was a piece of what appeared to be torn tendon in my thumb :dontknow:

Ohh, the kid was in the hospital all morning. I thing he has several chipped teeth and quite a bit of swelling to his face :dontknow:

 

[SilvrSRT10]

Sorry to hear this. Is it going to interfere with any competitions in the near future? Good luck and I hope it heals quickly.

 

[505'sFastestViper.]

you are a bully....should of mased him and tazered him then took all his clothes off .......

 

[Prof]

I feel so sorry for the youngster................cough............cough.....

Poor misguided youth......has to drive a Honda.....cough....

Did you go back to be sure that his car windows were closed, and that the Honda was properly secured?

Most of all I am worried about the steps...you know the teeth of youngsters are very hard and there could be some nasty scratches on those steps...

 

[lbstone]

Silver, I have the Arnold Classic coming up soon. Its too early to tell what the outcome of the injury will be!

505, we dont have Tazers which is retarded if you ask me and I hate getting the spray on

Prof, I towed the car and the steps are concrete, they faired well!!

 

[TNVIPER]

I was a LEO many moons ago...it was always the young kids that wanted to fight...hope your injuries heal rapidly and 100%...thanks for what you do...:nurse: :congrats:

I'm sorry Man how is this going to effect your tournaments?

 

[bee0912]

Dude that sucks i hope you are ok.



I hadent looked at the pic and i thought that when you said there were 5 more cars flying down that they were going to make a 6 car pile up in the parking lot!HAHA

 

[Kevan]

Here ya go, Derek:

That should help with the names of the bones in the hand.

Sorry to hear about the injury. Hopefully it won't prevent you from kicking azz at the Arnold Classic. We're all really looking forward to that.

The kid had to be 'on' something. PCP maybe.
I mean, if I saw a 6'1, 320 lb. ARMED guy running toward me, I'd drop like an interest rate.
He was still conscious (and whole) after a few blows to the back? Wow.

 

[ILtemprd]

sucks man..feel better soon bud.

 

[FSTJACK]

I am really sorry, thanks for the job you do.................

 

[1qksrt]

I didn,t know which of the two threads to post on??:dontknow:
It sucks to hear that you injured your hand,:nurse: Hopefully it wont be anything serious.I,ve had similar diags. of my hands and all that was needed was a needle in my wrist.Although an M.R.I. will tell for sure!Both ,my son and daughter are cops in Jersey,and some of the stories they tell me are just short of amazing.Get better,You guys rock!!!!!!:rock: :rock:

 

[Django]

Just saw this, sounds like you had abit of excitement for a change....

You know what they say, Derek: "90% boredom and 10% pure adrenaline"..

Sounds (to me) like you may have simply strained one of the metacarpal ligaments or even a slight fracture of same..... and no.... I didn't get this shit from Kevan's link.....and I'm not a doctor. But I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.....

Get well soon and good luck at "The Oak's" tournament.... You'll make it...

well it sounds like the kid got what he deserved. Sorry to hear about your hand though. My grandparents house got broken into today and all of our christmas presents computers, tvs and car stolen. It is awful how people are these days.

Sorry to hear of your misfortunes to you and Derek.

Not to hijack Derek's thread, but that better not be your pikkie in the avatar.... You may end up with some stalkers knowing the crazos here....

had something similar happen in my neighbor hood yesterday...they stole everything while the people were at work....neighbors thought they were having some furniture delivered (i guess the panel truck they were loading was stolen from some furniture store).

Mr. Lbstone,

That little bastard got everything he deserved...i know that your hand is hurt but at least you got to break he face though....oh and i know what kind of pain your in (and maybe a little more)....got my hand destroyed in a car accident about 3 1/2 years ago..thats what happens when a truck rolls over you hand at 7omph..( i was riding in truck and flipped...hand broke threw the window and got pinned under the A- pillar on one of the rollovers) Glad it your wasnt too bad for you though...i hope anyway....i hope he commits a crime again and you get the call...Payback is a bitch!!!!

Oh...one other quick Q...why were you "escorting" him back to the cruiser without restraints?

 

[lbstone]

!

Oh...one other quick Q...why were you "escorting" him back to the cruiser without restraints?

First off, ouch!!! And to answer your question, he had a bigg puffy coat and saggy ass pants with untied Lugs boots. Lots of baggy shit to contend with. Plus when I jumped outta my car, my flashlight dropped so I had no light and wasn't gonna mess with trying to cuff him in the dark with his blood all over the place. I was escorting him as I held both of his hands behind his back, kinda like cuffs but he was so coked up he didn't know when to quite!! What was great was some random guy comes outta my house after I dropped him the second time after he was trying to stab me with his keys unsucessfully and said, "boy, are you stupid, your messing with third third strongest guy in the world". I politely corrected him and told him I was number 4!!

I am getting so tired of dealing with aholes like this guy and the guy who stole dangerlady22's grandparents gifts (btw, hot, hot, hot pic!!)!! I used to be a nice guy but the job has made me jaded. After 4 years, I trust noone and ended a 5 year, then a 2 1/2 year and then my most recent relationship because I cant trust anyone. Its not just the people lying and the scumbags you deal with, its the little things like finding a 30 something couple going at it in a parking lot. Innocent you may think but upon running the vehicle reg you find it registered to the guys wife and they are only a few blocks from the chicks house! Duhh, doesnt take a guniuess to figure that one out. That and all the domestic violence crap.

 

[Bone]

Hope you get better. Sometimes you are just do for some rest anyhow. Tough to sit still and not work out, I know.
