Keep it Classy, Indy

Another shooting within walking distance of my office this AM around 10am. 30th and Arlington. I came through 30 minutes after it happened and they were still cleaning up the mess.

The apartments near that intersection are s**tholes.

Yep. One of our buildings is on 30th. I remember vividly standing on the roof installing an antenna watching crime scene techs work at the house across the street where the cab driver had been shot overnight. Somebody got in his cab, had them drive to that house, then robbed and murdered him. I wouldnt be surprised if the perp lived in the apts and knew it would only be a short walk home.

30th and Arlington no way

News flash - officers aren't the ones damaging the cars... Well, unless I PIT one into an immovable object....

Arkansas does it right. Warning language…

Life is hard; even more so when you're a dumb ****.

I like how he calls on the radio "Pit successful"

Police, experts urge safety and awareness after woman chased on Indy pathway

Police said it's a scary situation to happen to anyone, especially in broad daylight.

And what are the reactions? "Here's why you shouldn't carry a gun to protect yourself from rapists". "Here's why IMPD is useless, also don't carry a gun because that's bad". "Carry pens and other office supplies so you can scratch a rapist, but don't carry an actual weapon that can end the attack outright".

Libs are unbelievable.

Lich, the owner of The Shooting Institute says, "take a pen...even mace...make sure you're trained to use it." Umm, any other weapons choices Mr. Lich?

You don't know if their interview was edited.
I've given some interviews that were edited down to one sentence.

If you want to be entertained watching PIT maneuvers, watch ASP videos. If you want to see how not to perform PIT maneuvers, watch ASP videos.

I think the real takeaway here is that breaking the law in Arkansas using a vehicle is well known to be asking for injury or death.

Agreed.

If it's stupid, but it works, it ain't stupid.

Well executed PIT, and "nails the landing" by stopping so the rolling vehicle comes right into view in the dashcam!

Killing someone during a PIT isn't the proper application, and is in fact stupid. And in Marion County will get you sent to pound-me-in-the-@$$ prison.

 

[Frank_N_Stein]

Here is another video of ASP showing how not to do PITs. At 2:21 one of the pursuing cars crashes into a wall but remains in the chase. That wouldn't fly here. And at 10:25 a trooper gets his PIT bar hooked on the trailer hitch of the truck, causing the truck to flip and almost flipping the police car. Again, not the proper technique and they are lucky no one was seriously hurt.

Yeah, I was obviously joking. Hence the .

In this ****ing clown world, just showing up to a run where someone has a heart attack could land you in pound-you-in-the-ass prison. I wouldn't chase or PIT anyone for anything in this political climate. Let the animals do what they want. A nice shade tree and a crossword puzzle is what I would be doing as I coasted to retirement. A majority voted for it, I'd give them what they wanted.

And if I was younger, I'd simply GTFO.

I wondered why you cared about what active self protection thought about PITs. Then it all came together that you were talking about the police agency instead.

That truck vid was pretty wild when he got hooked on the hitch.

Hope the guy got a ticket for littering!

Did they say why the traffic stop was initiated in the first place? I can't imagine it was for not securing the stuff that didn't sell at the yard sale (all over the street at the end, looks like the post-yard sale Goodwill run.) I'm thinking it was something pretty serious.

Note to self: avoid Arkansas.

I didn't catch the reason. But ASP seems to have a "chase for any reason" policy.
