A horrifying video has emerged showing St. Petersburg police forcing a man out of his car before pouncing on him, leaving him hospitalized with several injuries, all because the cop claims he was in fear for his life.
At least that what he says in his report, where he wrote the following:
“I exited my marked patrol cruiser and walked towards the vehicle and I noticed the driver staring at me with a blank stare as he continued revving the engine louder and louder. I thought by his actions the subject was going to attempt to hit me with his car.”
The video, however, shows it was Curtis Shannon, a young man from Florida who should have been in fear for his life during the arrest.
It also shows that he remained professional as he tried to hand the cop his license and registration through a small opening after the cop pulled him over for what he claimed was erratic driving.
But if anything was erratic, it the was behavior of the cop, which unfortunately, Shannon refuses to identify out of what he says is “respect.”
The cop deserves no respect because he was downright criminal. A thug with a badge. A proud member of the Blue Mafia.

You are too kind in calling this PIG a bully.
He is a hateful, abusive scumbag who uses his license to commit crimes against citizens.
This video is appalling. The police officer was out of control and had no reason to order this driver out of his vehicle. This police officer is just another bully that we citizens need to fear.
