Suspect

Today, I went for a run. I ended up being tackled by two cops, handcuffed, and dragged to the station with no explanation. Turns out a house nearby had been robbed and the best description they got was, "A man running." I didn't even get an apology. FML

Because people that rob houses never run right? Hurray for dumbass police officers!

FYL but not much you can do. They legally can't offer any apology since it could be used against them in civil court when you sue them. But really, they can't tell someone jogging from someone fleeing a crime scene?

Ha. That reminds me of this one time, we were on vacation and a man in a blue F150 kidnapped three kids. My step dad drives a blue F150, me, my brother and step brother were in the car. A cop pulled us over and asked if this man was our dad. My brother said he wasn't. It was along day.

Hahaha! That sounds like something my brother would do...gotta love siblings, eh?

Did your brother got in massive trouble? Follow up follow up please?

That's some fine detective work there, Lou.

I don't think this is a fake. The same thing happened to my neighbor...

cops will never apologize. I was tackled and put in a hammerlock once b/c I happened to be wearing blue jeans and a white shirt that matched a description of a drug dealer they were looking for. a witness who reported the dealer was supposed to come and ID me, but never showed up. they let me go after about 20 minutes of that bullshit. no apologies.

What are you wearing while you run? If you're running wearing a singlet and shorts, then the police are dumbass.

yea... the police suck like that. they ******* suck. sorry to hear about that man. Ive been arrested a bunch of times for things I didnt do, spent time in jail. I got a severe case of the ****-its now for the rest of my life. FML
