CHP Officer Arrests Firefighter At Accident Scene
How do we explain the arrest of a firefighter by a police officer at the scene of an accident after an argument over where a fire truck should park? The authorities are still discussing the incident, which took place Tuesday night on California's I-805, where a car had rolled over at the center road barrier.As San Diego's CBS 8 TV reports, an argument broke out between a California Highway Patrol officer and a firefighter from Chula Vista, as they clashed over where the Chula Vista crew's fire engine should be stationed. Firefighters had placed their vehicle along the center road divider, close to where a car had flipped over, and behind an ambulance. Emergency personnel tended to the car's two occupants as the conflict went on around them. CBS 8's cameras captured the incident, which ended with the firefighter being handcuffed and placed in the back of a police cruiser. Members of the CHP and the Chula Vista fire department held a meeting Wednesday to discuss the conflict. A statement released by Fire Chief Dave Hanneman praises the fire department's members for not escalating the tension. The CHP hasn't released a statement about the incident. We all know the police and the judiciary can do no wrong. It's always somebody's fault. Posted by: Anguper Hupomosing9418 2014-02-07 |
