Reminds me of how one of my grandfathers died. Had his third and final heart attack while out driving his pickup truck, and smashed into and through three parked police cars. I don't know this, but I like to think he felt the big one coming on, saw the cop cars, screamed "BANZAI!" and went for it. |

He is expected to appear in Orleans County Criminal Court Friday to answer to seven counts of felony unlawful mischief, one count of misdemeanor unlawful mischief, one count of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer, one count of gross negligent operation, and one count of leaving the scene of an accident. The law's got a sense of humor, too. |

I bet he can beat that last charge - He can just argue that it wasn't an accident. |

He was driving a fucking tractor. Couldn't they have just run after him? |

If they resemble most of the cops I see these days, no they couldn't. |

Tractors only go into 'walk' mode when you're stuck behind them with no possibility of overtaking. |

The LGBT community is the antithesis of what Scouting stands for. Scouting stands for putting penises into vaginae? If I had known that years ago, I might have been interested in it. |

As the resident of a small suburb that only has one fully-equipped patrol car due to budget cuts, I don't find this quite as funny. |

Nope; Holland, Ohio, though I'm sure many others are in the same situation. |

Presumably that includes equipping them with computers, radios, and everything else, so I don't think it's unreasonable. |

Spot on. The police package is about $8000 worth of equipment. |

I doubt they use an altogether cheap base model as well. $30,000 sounds discounted to me. |

See? They should just have let the dude smoke his weed. Probably would have just drove his tractor to the podunk-mart for ding dongs and Mtn. Dew. |
