[Duane 3NE 2NR]

[Gladiator]

Like police doh carry baton no more..

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

LMFAO that is one brave man yes.

[matix]

that man gonna get a lot of licks at the station

[The_Honourable]

Now if the police did shoot him, everybody will have an opinion on what the police should and should not do.

Cutass in d cell for sure.

[rollingstock]

Looks like trincity.
And was that a spanner the next police was hitting him on the legs with?

Please someone say this was for an episode of Benny Hill.

[EFFECTIC DESIGNS]

Is a spanner self the police beating he with.

[matix]

Rs what would you do in that situation ?

[shogun]

LOL!

Big popo tackle the man like a linebacker, yes.

RIP Lancer bonnet, by the way.

[rollingstock]

Not sure but definitely not taking a belt to face.

I feel it for lancer guy though. Who fixing his car

[Specialist Baboons]

4 men and a spanner to restrain a belt wielding madman?

[matix]

Situations like this so sensitive. The officers don't have tazers?

but i wonder wat the TTPS tell him to react like that

[Mercenary]

Spanner was dumb tho. 'Heat of the moment kina ting'

Oh is a cs lancer, nobody cares

[matr1x]

They will give him locks before reaching the station

[Redman]

The first officer seemed to be in shock the man hitting him....the cuff was totally unexpected.

Great restraint by the officers actually...at their expense.

The spanner though...lol

[maj. tom]

How come they (Police) are not issued and trained with tasers in Trinidad?

Why the people in power always like this country to be so backward and crude? I know everyone like to say how TT Police so stupid and inept, but most of the time it's because they aren't equipped properly or trained properly to do their ungrateful and difficult jobs.

[xtech]

Top Cop he gonna be so embarrassed by these amateur officers. First guy thought he was superman an taking shots instead of tackling the crazy man to ground. Then when they do tackle the guy they do it on a man car and damage it..

Lancer man will get a lancer one model year newer

[timelapse]

Is de spanner he want is the spanner...........

[skylinechild]

on page one.....

things to note

1 could the police have used deadly force to subdue the suspect but not kill - ie wound?

2. what else could the police have done differently in that situation - given the current tools / methods to subdue a suspect ?

3 could the officer have responded in kind - ie remove gun from waist ...take off shirt and charge enn like rambo ??

4. who is goin to fix the lancer man car?

5. reserved for future comment / suggestion

[Redman]

I think the officer behind the guy should have run in immediately as he swung the belt.

he was in the best position to subdue...given his position,size etc.

Watch all vids involving local arrests and compare with foreign vids and you see that our officers aren't trained to subdue difficult persons in real life.
It is almost always like a comedy skit....shameful that our CoP and minister seeing these things over the years and not addressing it with the new recruits at least.

[Monkey Man]

[Ben_spanna]

that same man- if he was on a trip in NYC and police even looked at him would have asked the officer "how high tuh jump" but you know - lack of respect here, and yes if the policeman had used a form of force from the earlies you would probably have heard the usual BS from the ignorant masses- "why he had to beat him, why he had to shoot him, yuh see how police violent for no reason" .

In all fairness foreign officers also have pepper spray, tazers and aren't harshly judged for using force once required.

[brainchild]

I'm talking about hand to hand takedowns...our cops just not ready
