Aren't you glad our intrepid "Only One" was out there patrolling for beer drinkers? Why, one of those scofflaws might have gotten into his car and run over someone!
Oh well--at least this one noticed.

Paid leave for killing someone. Do you think this is how cops in Russia are treated?
ReplyDeleteWow -- he's having his probationary period extended for 6 months. That's harsh dude!
ReplyDeleteMy son is a lifeguard on that same beach. You and I cannot drive our cars there, but the police can. I guess that's because they're so much safer!

That lady shouldn't have been laying around where the nice Policeman was driving. If she would have exercised prudent care, and not gotten in the way of an Officer in the execution of his assigned duties, none of this would have happened.

It was a COP what dunnit, so it was the right thing to do! He deserves a paid vacation!
