Police Taser man they are trying to rescue?
In June Mark Holder, 30, had a seizure as he drove his car in Boynton Beach Florida. His car swerved off the road and smashed into a sign. He was apparently badly injured in the accident.
Emergency workers arrived to assist the man and attempted to put a neck brace on him to stabilize his neck to prevent any further damage if any existed. However, while the man was being assisted by EMS workers he became combative … likely due to the seizure that he’d just had, he probably didn’t know what was going on.
So what did the people trying to help him do? They tasered him … well the police did – several times just so that the EMS workers could fit the brace to the drivers neck. Yeah, that was helpful. I wonder what the Emergency Medical Service workers thought of their patient being tasered?
Dog wanting snack burns down kitchen
Illinois – A pet dog caused 30,000 of damage when it turned on its owner’s cooker and burnt down the kitchen.
Skylar, a three-year-old ‘goldendoodle’, apparently started a kitchen fire when she tried to jump on the stove to get left-over pizza.
The designer pooch, a cross between a golden retriever and a poodle, is believed to have switched on a hob which ignited the cardboard underneath the pizza.
The flames spread to a nearby plastic cutting board, and then to the cabinets above the stove, Naperville fire officials said.
Haines, 32, said he had been running five minutes late: “I didn’t do my typical sweep through the kitchen to make sure Skylar couldn’t get at anything,” he admitted. Firefighters broke down a door after neighbours raised the alarm and rescued the unconscious Skylar.
Man on horse and cart escapes 5 different police teams!
Leeds – A man on a horse and cart escaped four police motorbikes, a patrol car, a video van, two cycling constables and a helicopter.
The combined efforts of modern policing were outwitted in a low speed chase through Leeds, reports the Guardian.
The 34-year-old man, who has not been named but is wanted for serious assault, was first spotted by a police cycle patrol.
The suspect jumped on to a rag-and-bone cart with a friend and trotted off – followed eventually by a convoy of police vehicles.
Locals in Chapel Allerton described “a bizarre procession” along a dual carriageway, with the horse and cart weaving to frustrate its pursuers. West Yorkshire police said that officers had got as close as they could but were anxious not to frighten the horse.
