That’s nuts.
I’m ootl, what’s the with the acorn?
A pig mag dumped into his police cruiser when an acorn fell on its hood cause they thought it was a gunshot. There was someone under arrest in the back of said cruiser.
Then his partner mag dumped into the same cruiser as well when nutbag kept insisting he was hit.
The partner at least asked “where where!?” a few times, but she still just empted a magazine into the same car a handcuffed, unarmed suspect was locked up in.
Luckily both shitbergs couldn’t aim for shit and missed the guy with like 30 rounds.
Holy fucking shit… This is worse than I even imagined…
In his partners defense, her perspective was he was calling shots fired, shooting at his own car, and on the ground saying he was hit, in her shoes I would of probably shot at the car too.
I agree to a point, but you should still not fire wildly ever, especially in a populated area.
If she could not find a target, she should not have shot the gun. Even suppressing fire requires knowing in general what youre shooting at. In this case, she should have dragged her partner to cover, called in the “attack” and maintained sight lines, looking for the danger. No bullet should have left her gun.
Acorn boy needs to be prosecuted for gross neglect and maybe even attempted manslaughter. I think she needs to be fired for poor judgement.
Google “cop in Florida acorn”
Hope he’s forever known as officer acorn, just like officer bubbles
In a just world he would be known as “Prisoner 0103151814”
It’s a good thing you added “acorn” there!
Fortunately he was a horrible shot and didn’t actually hit the unarmed man in handcuffs in his car.
And didn’t he have a partner who came and did similarly too? Neither managed to kill the guy they had already previously verified had no weapons.
Hey, that guy in the car could have been some sort of X-Men mutant that had gun powers. You can never be too sure.
That’s one way to test if he had somehow gained the power to become bulletproof, I suppose. It might have worked better if they could at least aim straight though:-P.
I totally failing to understand all the acorn references. What is going on.
-
Cop arrests someone and places him in handcuffs in the back of the cop’s SUV.
-
Cop hears an acorn fall on the SUV and thinks the arrested person that he placed in handcuffs and supposedly searched is shooting at him.
-
Cop falls to the floor and fires and entire magazine at his SUV while yelling that he’s been hit.
-
Luckily, despite being about 15 yards away from the SUV and unloading an entire magazine at the arrested person, he did not hit the arrested person in the SUV.
-
Cop then insists he’s been hit until the doctors at the hospital tell him he is fine and has not been hit with a bullet.
You can’t make this shit up.

So… That dude is definitely getting a psychiatric release from his duties. Right?
Afaik he was ridiculed so much by his buddies and other locals that he quit the job.
You forgot that the oinker attempted to dark souls roll away from the “situation”. Needless to say he was fat rolling

Cop hears acorn fall, so he does a roll and yells “I’m hit! He’s shooting!” And attempts to murder a handcuffed suspect in the back of the police car.
A Florida cop went full Rambo on his patrol car after an acorn fell on it.

nuts?
cop almost killed a man because an acorn fell on the patrol car, just to make sure you’re up to date on the state of the US.
Solid photoshop to the bottom frame 👏
I say solid bc it’s GIMPed
Uh… the gun has a silencer on it?
While that nut musta been LOUD!
That is extremely nice attention to detail that Pam is wearing a police uniform.:-)
The movies get silencers very wrong… It would be a bit louder than the acorn and sound much different (or about the same volume if the vehicle is really well soundproofed). The officer should have known immediately that it wasn’t from inside the car. If it was a downtown area where stray bullets are an actual threat, I might have gotten down and scanned the area for danger, maybe radioed the possible stray bullet and assessed vehicle damage after a couple minutes. And that’s just common sense, I have no real training whatsoever. But literally any kid who’s gone squirrel hunting knows better trigger discipline than that.
Exactly this. Like, nobody is blaming the officer for being scared upon hearing a gun-sounding noise, that’s just common sense that they should be actually, but to empty the mag at… what? Without knowing what the target was? Or did he legit think that it was his car that was the threat?
That said, it’s surely a tough job, especially for the pay and the danger. Which is all the more reason to train them at least up to the level of a kid going squirrel hunting?

Cops doesnt even break the top 20 for the most dangerous jobs in the US. Pizza delivery is more dangerous, and they dont get guns/vests/tanks/training/SWAT/etc. They also sure as fuck dont get the pension or huge OT pay, and abikty to break laws without consequence.
Most cops dont even fire their gun in their career. This guy fired it at a suspect fully in his care, that he had searched, handcuffed and put in a locked cage in the car. He didn’t fire it once, he fired it at him a dozen times, and convinced his partner to do the same. They both shot at a man in their care and custody dozens of times because of a tree nut.
Okay but you are using “facts” and “data” there.:-)
While in their defense, that nut was scawy, and they got their fee-fees huwt.
The car was resisting.
An acorn falling onto the roof of a car wouldn’t sound like a gun shot. But I could sound similar to a bullet striking a car.
Agreed. While a sniper round with a silencer or stray bullet from a streetfight hitting the hood of the car might sound similar, there’s no way it could have been any firearm from inside the vehicle. A paranoid but well-trained cop getting down behind the engine block and visually scanning the area for danger? Understandable, but a bit silly unless you’re in a dangerous downtown area. But emptying your mag into the car? You can’t have people with firearms that poorly trained and that jumpy… I say if they must have guns (which could be necessary in the case of an actual armed criminal), send them to bootcamp and have the army drill some threat assessment and trigger discipline into them…
Funny that you mention army bootcamp. The officer is a vet
Pam would be a cop.
No she wouldn’t. She doesn’t have an aggressive bone in her body. Too timid.
Exactly why she craves power and gets off on assaulting innocent black people when on the job. Don’t shoot the messenger!
I think some of y’all have never had a nut or anything drop on top of your car before, but it absolutely can sound alarming enough to, in the context of a high stress situation, be interpreted by your brain as a potential shot in the same way a busted engine can.
To be clear, I think this is far more likely than most people are willing to understand, and this gets lost in the ‘all cops bad’ narrative.
Let’s say you’re absolutely 100% correct. Does that mean that claiming that you’ve been hit, diving onto the ground, and unloading a full clip at a handcuffed individual inside your own vehicle is the appropriate immediate response?
I was shot at once, and in the moment, you’re not sure that you haven’t been shot. Sometimes you can be in shock and not know because of adrenaline, it’s a real thing. It’s hard to explain how things happen in the moment.
I was once on a second story and watched the trees jump into the air, only understanding after a few seconds that what happened was the floor collapsed and I fell to the ground. Life doesn’t afford the ability to process things well when they happen quickly.
There is russian version with paper cup from 2019.
What happened that time?
During protests in Moscow one man threw paper cup in general direction of police. Paper cup hit policeman in full gear in helmet. Later police raided his home. There are even memes about paper cup.
Why the fuck would a cop do this??
Oh, Florida. That checks out.
The only good thing to come out of this is that the cop quit. I hope he’s billed for the damage to the car anyway.
nah, why charge the guy clearly at fault, when you can just pass the bill on to the taxpayers!
Guarantee he’ll be back on the force in another town by next year.
That’s the funny part, he missed his car!
Edit: Apparently he did hit the car.
I heard he missed the person, but he missed the WHOLE ASS CAR?
Edit: watched the video, he definitely hit the car
Oh damn guess people told me some bogus info. Glad he missed the person at least!
