Definite overreaction by the Highway Patrolman. Perhaps someone this sensitive shouldn’t be in uniform.
Thank goodness the patient survived.

Don’t know why they pulled over that ambulance, but restraining a guy who assists arrest is no overreaction.
Given that the guy was several times larger than the LEO, I don’t see how this is an overeaction, too much force being used.
The EMT clearly tried to hit the LEO and flee, his fault if he got roughed up a bit as a result.

JT, you say, “the guy was several times larger than the LEO”?
WHAA?! He looks maybe a couple inches taller and maybe 20 lbs. or so heavier, but “several times larger”?
Whatever yer smokin’ pass it over, dude!
And I would think an LEO would prefer someone who assists an arrest vs. someone who resists an arrest.
yoink!

There are such things as “1040″ runs. No lights, No sirens. The trooper needs to go back to school ,and really needs an ego adjustment!!

Wow! Take notice here. If they were so guilty, why didnt the police JUST give a ticket then. Just write the ticket and settle it it court. They took risk of a patient in harms way. And you can plainly see the tension of the police just stirring himself up. This is crazy. Grabbing by the throat? Also, notice the cop kept threatening you are under arrest over and over. Clearly the cop hoped for things to escalate. What happened to professional police who do their jobs, and just write tickets and not try to stir people up? We know why they do this, we arent “sheep”. Notice after the throat thing, the cop does just let him go and get in van. I thought the arrest was so important? Just looks to me like the police just wanted to play.
