Tacoma police spokeswoman, Officer Wendy Haddow, said the agency started receiving calls at 6:19 p.m. that a car was driving erratically and there were reports of street racing in the area.
The patrol car, surrounded by groups of shouting people, revs its engine and suddenly surges forward, striking the group and running over at least one individual before driving on.
The police officer was responding to calls of illegal street racing with obligatory doughnut burnouts in intersections. The incident was captured on multiple cell phone cameras. You can see the SUV in the street with 20-30 people surrounding it. At one point the officer evidently becomes concerned with his own safety and hits the gas, plowing through about a dozen or so people to escape. One person is all the way under the car and you can clearly see the back tires run over him . . .
While the police officer did this to save his own life this is officially considered a use of deadly force, the Pierce County Investigation Team is taking lead on the incident.
As always this encouraged Antifa to mobilize and raise their flag on the streets as Andy Ngo reported . . .
Commenter: "I’m betting it was a set up to begin with, with AntiFa scum mobbing the cop in his car hoping he’d react."
"It’s funny how Antifa types are Communist atheists who hate religion but every time something goes wrong when they are around they all start screaming.... Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God! . . . "
"“They’re in the cop car. They’re in the cop car” Can be heard in one of the close up videos." Another version: "They're hitting the cop car . . . "
"Don’t play in the street, don’t illegal road race, don’t block and attack police vehicles....and you won’t get smushed under the tires... Antifa idiots, take note of this important safety advice!"
"Michelin tires look good on any vehicle - they even look good on a soy boy..!!"
"Rioting and playing in traffic is risky business..."
