ND on Cops last night, anyone see it???

[BigBlueEyedDevil]

On Cops last night they responded to a call where a kid was shot in the leg. The father said that he had pull the magazine out of the gun and it just went off. Supposodly he shot his son in the calf accidentally from 5-10 feet away. But the police said the kid's wound indicated that they gun had been much much closer. He said he couldn't believe that it went off. It looked like a CZ 9mm.

After they took the dad outside, they were walking him to the patrol car and the dad tries to drop a syringe on the ground. I think this guy's a candidate for "Bonehead of the Month." To top it all off, the father had been drinking.

I've seen that episode before. They were all drinking. I think it was a chinese Tokarev. Have you ever heard of the term "trailer trash".

I saw that too...What syringe?..I didn't drop any syringe.

I've always wondered what these people think when they see themselves on TV acting like total morons.

I saw that last night too...fellow insomniacs on the THR must all watch the same show!

Did you see the one earlier with the guy that came from Utah with the weed and the teenage girl in his truck? Looked like he had an old highpower. I was totally astounded that the cop just let the guy out in the open with his back turned to him...I kept waiting for the guy to run or something.

Hi, saw that episode of Cops the other night . I am pretty sure what the drunken/stoned father shot his son with was a Russian commercial Makarov . Not sure if it was .380 or 9X18mm mak caliber . ......WVleo

I watch Cops everynight before going to bed. Everytime I watch it I pat myself on the back and thank the Lord I am not a druggy or a pusher. They should change the name of the show to White Trash.

I saw it last night too. They were arguing and I think he had powder burns on his leg. The cops thought it wasn't a ND but intentional.

It reminds of me the Reno 911 episode where the guy came running out of the convenience store after robbing it and then tries to deny it to the cops waiting outside, all while the alarm is going off in the background. "I have a gun on me" ... "That's not my gun" ... "I'm going to be honest with you all, that's not my gun, I had it, but it's not mine".

By far the best excuse a doper gave when the cop found his drugs in his front pocket was "These aren't my pants." Jeesus, druggies are STUPID.

"I have a gun on me" ... "That's not my gun" ... "I'm going to be honest with you all, that's not my gun, I had it, but it's not mine".

True story. Several years ago, before the law eliminated counter display of cigarettes, I was called to a convenience store where the clerk suspected two kids of shoplifting cigarettes. She had a security tape of one of them, but didn't have anything on the other. Iasked him if he'd consent to search or if he wanted to stand there while we reviewed all the security tapes. He said he didn't take anything and proceeded to empty his pockets on the counter. The first think out of his jacket pocket was a sandwich bag full of a leafy green substance. "That's not mine!" were the first words out of his mouth. "Who's is it?" I asked. "My friend's..." "What's your friend's name?" I asked. "I don't know his name." He meekly replied. "So you want me to believe that your friend, who you know so well you don't even know his name, gave you this bag of dope to hold for him?" I asked. "Yes sir, that's right." He replied.

I arrested the one young man for retail theft. He had the cigarettes on him when the clerk stopped him just outside and we had him pocketing them on the video. The other boy didn't have any cigarettes or anything else that came from the store so I arrested him for Possession of Cannabis. We got up to the station and I started processing them. I took some of the green leafy substance out of the baggie the second boy had and dropped it into a test kit. Broke the vial and shook it up. Nothing changed. The liquid didn't change color. I got out another test kit, used a larger amount of the green leafy substance and got the same results. I walked back to the booking room and told him he was free to go. When he asked why I said that we had nothing to charge him with. And I couldn't resist saying; "And tell your friend that whoever he's buying his dope from, is ripping him off."

The stupidity of criminals never ceases to humor me.

Hahahahaha, that's great.

Not trying to hijack the topic or anything, but my favorite episode of Cops was filmed here in Fort Worth. Late one night, an old lady fired her revolver at what she thought was an intruder.

Cops show up, take the revolver and reload it for her, saying, "We don't have a problem with you using a gun to defend yourself, just make sure you know what you're shooting at."

I about died laughing. I thought, people in New York are going to see this and think that Texas is full of gun-crazy old ladies and cops who are reloading their guns for them.

(Like that's a bad thing.)

I like watching Cops just to see the gun play that is involed. Watching felony stops is always exciting.

I saw one Cop respond to a call of 4 men with guns. He was all by himself, pulled his shotgun, did a felony stop by himself, handcuffed and took all the guns off the guys and then back up arrived. I think they took two handguns and a sawed-off from the guys. It was great.

We recently had an Orange County Deputy (Florida) responding to a call get into a "firefight"

S. O. was responding to a call where an 8 year old called 911 and said that his mother had been yanked out of a car by an assailant in front of their house.

The deputy (female) was protecting the 3 kids that were still in the car and took 7 (count em) 7 rounds to the extremeties. She still managed to return fire, and the score at the end was OCSO 2 (1 DRT bad guy - 1 in custody) Bad Guys 0

Man, that's a tough woman!

Turns out the 2 bad guys were there to do a "dynamic entry" of the house which contained 350 pounds of pot. Mom's been charged
