Deitrosity User Info... | Sober as a judge,Canada day(ok ok two beers but really over three hours) go into swans to get a bottle of Jager for a friend's wedding reception, come out "gimme" he said. I thought it was a joke so I walked up to talk with this sad excuse for a public servant he repeated "gimme" I was explaining that I had just bought it not 12ft from were we were standing at the time and had no intention of opening it until much later and that I was leaving the downtown core. He was by himself no partner."gimme"(like kindergarten seriously,I couldn't believe it) I asked him why he had to take it and without further adew I was Maced in the Face and the bottle (close to 40 bones)was snatched! I immediately called for help and some bro's took me to the bathroom of the bar for dillution.By this time I was completely blind and felt very ill. Anyways wtf. If you cant soberly and with legal ID being of age buy from this establishment then why have it open. And this particular cop was seen patrolling beer and wine stores all night after this,I was watching. Not to give all cops a schlagging cause I ran into some really good ones,the best in fact. Honesty,Truth,Justice without prejudice to much to ask? Well that and a trial by fire! - Thu, 5 Jul 2007 5:56pm | ||
Jeremy Baker User Info... | do you remember which cop it was? This is a crazy story... you could always email Tasha at the Zone... she'd probably like to investigate further and could call the Vic police to get an answer on what is "acceptable" in our fair city of law abiding tax payers.

trevor corey User Info... | Talk to a lawyer. If it was me, I'd sue the Police, the city, and Swans. You should get paid for this. Chris Considine could get you thousands. - Thu, 5 Jul 2007 6:32pm | ||
Deitrosity User Info... | you think if I get a picture they'll put it on t.v. you know like crime stoppers J.A.Ducker. This douche is dangerous I'm sure he has a tazer and worse. He obviously is servicing his own phsycotic tendincies when he put's on that uniform everyday. - Thu, 5 Jul 2007 6:45pm Edited: Thu, 5 Jul 2007 7:11pm | ||
Jeremy Baker User Info... | Deitrosity you have an interesting story that I think people shoul dhear, you really should consider emailing Tasha the detail or me and maybe we can phonbe the police guy and ask what is up. And Trevor is correct, you really should make a formal complaint. Lots of pople want a job as a police officer, no need tolerate bullies. - Thu, 5 Jul 2007 6:53pm | ||
_Griphin_ User Info... | I'm curious, why did he keep saying gimme for the bottle of Jager?!? For a second there, I thought you were speaking about a street person. - Thu, 5 Jul 2007 7:01pm | ||
Deitrosity User Info... | I couldn't even believe it myself. I thought he may of been an ex-cop Impersonating. Only with a really good costume and a car and a real gun and mace. Not untill after it happened of course did I consider this avenue. Was he not making his qouta wtf?!!And why was he alone! - Thu, 5 Jul 2007 7:21pm Edited: Thu, 5 Jul 2007 7:30pm | ||
Bounce User Info... | i think its pretty bad that he maced you, you had no weapon and were doing no harm, had he done his job properly and checked your bottle to see if it was open , and maybe checked your receipt, even that is an invasion of privacy....I would sue, that is excesive force, and for what? is there a law that says people can't walk to and from a liquor store to buy alcohol?....pisses me off, power trippers!!! - Thu, 5 Jul 2007 8:03pm | ||
THE JAK User Info... | IF YOU DON'T GET ON THIS THEN THAT PIG IS GOING TO DO IT AGAIN TO SOMEONE ELSE......IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU WERENT CHARGED OR ARESTED OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT ,,NOT EVEN TAKEN INTO CUSTODY....THIS AMOUNTS TO ROBBEREY - Thu, 5 Jul 2007 8:54pm | ||

dumpstermesh User Info... | File a report for sure!! This guy is stocking his liquor cabinet! Sorry that happened to you but don't let it slide. He'll do it every chance he gets. - Fri, 6 Jul 2007 2:50am | ||
_Griphin_ User Info... | Using Mace is assault with a prohibited weapon. Even the police have to have good reason to use Mace. It's too bad you don't have a name for the officer, as you can charge him. - Fri, 6 Jul 2007 10:00am | ||
Swingin' Joe User Info... | Speaking of Mace, where the hell is he? - Fri, 6 Jul 2007 4:22pm | ||
dumpstermesh User Info... | Shhhh....speak not of the devil or he shall appear. - Fri, 6 Jul 2007 5:16pm | ||
_Griphin_ User Info... | aCk... I just realize there was someone with the handle of Mace. :) - Fri, 6 Jul 2007 7:59pm | ||
__DC__ User Info... | So what happened afterwards? He just took your booze, maced you and left you there? that sounds a little odd. Sound like some of the story is missing. - Fri, 6 Jul 2007 9:55pm | ||
Deitrosity User Info... | nope that's it! When I came out of the bathroom after around 15-20 minutes there was no sign of him or any other officers to you know follow up. Basically that's it demanded the booze gave no reason or explanation even when asked respectfully. - Sat, 7 Jul 2007 1:19am | ||
Tambo User Info... | Pretty much assault and robbery... That's so balls dude, I feel for ya. - Sat, 7 Jul 2007 7:58am | ||
Tambo User Info... | This isn't from here, it's from Hot Springs, Arkansas, but still more shitty cops, sounds like a similiar kinda story... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EH6AYVn2yw4 - Sat, 7 Jul 2007 8:06am | ||
Deitrosity User Info... | sorry but it seems like he wasn't that bad in the video. He gave him a reason explaining why he was being detained. In my case it was much faster. He must have assumed I was going to crack the bottle immediately drink it all to myself instantly and enter a drunken rage were the public would be in dangered. I wish all officers were blessed with that level of clairvoyance!:)an ounce of prevention,nip it in the ass, right? holy shiiat! - Sat, 7 Jul 2007 10:27am Edited: Sat, 7 Jul 2007 10:29am | ||
