Baltimore Officers Attacked




Cedar's Take: Baltimore Officers have their hands full, a big mouthy crowd, a resisting suspect and from their blind side their attacker circling calmly behind them. The attacker's back is to the camera 3 seconds into the video, then he walks away after being confronted only to come back into frame from across the street. It could have ended much worse. I fault the Officers who were more concerned about the idiot with the cell phone camera than the blind side. The time elasped to cuff the suspect doesn't help them either. Situational awareness in this case was not 360 degrees even though there are clearly threats coming from all directions. Of course the fool with the camera didn't offer any heads up either.

Damn the guy is right there walks away and circles back. You can see it coming from across the street. The cops are rookies? Watch the one cop fumble with his belt. He doesn't know what to do, just standing there while his partner tries the cuff the first dude and BAM a full on right hook that had to hurt. I'd want a new partner.

Offers fault? Please the freaking idiot citizens their were and are the problem. Raised with no respect. They should have shot the POS. Or just cracked his head open on the pavement for everyone to enjoy. That we be a lesson learned, screw with the Police and you will get hurt.

These people are truly animals..Of course fault lies on the animals first...but I agree with cedars take on the actions of the officers. The first suspect should have been in handcuffs much quicker. And then after the officer was attacked? his partner just sat there with the suspect on top of his partner fumbling with his radio... Time for some remedial training big guy...

I'm sorry, but cops DO have their hands full! This "race war" is ridiculous but it IS what Obama wanted!

Just more proof of the "jungle mentality" and yes folks it affects ALL races!

Cedar this should be running on a loop at CMPD. These guys look like they have been around a while, and they have gotten lazy.

If your CMPD you better take notice of this video, you may not be as lucky and even if you don't take a bullet to the back of your head do you really want to explain at roll call why the entire side of your face looks like it got hit by a truck?

We're waiting for your apology Cedar. I know most of us dont have the good fortune to own a string of yachts and a home in a fancy zip code, but we're men nonetheless and we sting too!!!

Cedar looks like you have a new friend. He seems to be claiming he is speaking for all of CMPD. I doubt he/she Tufano/Foster has much support outside of those in white shirts. Stay the course you know the truth and we count on you to keep it out there.

As a police officer, the officers did not do everything right. They took too long getting the first person in handcuffs and then after the officer was attacked the other officer did not get the other suspect off the officer and get him in custody.

The fault of this incident is the people of Baltimore. Both the one who came up and struck the officer and those who watched and did not help.

Just because it's the suspect's fault does not mean the officers did everything right. The article is not cop bashing.

Go away.... Your PERSONAL hatred is apparent.
In no way do you speak for Cmpd.
Cedar has done more to help Cmpd by exposing corruption at the top than you could ever hope of doing.
I doubt seriously if you care at all about the men of Cmpd... This sounds like a personal vendetta to all.
Cedar must have posted something recently that stepped on your little piggies.

Anon 9/31, I agree put a tourniquet on the tongue and stop the bleeding..you are so far off base that you are insulting yourself. You are hoping your insults and comments will stop CP and other CMPD members and citizens from stating true facts...well it won't work. You are the one that owe's CP and other's the apology! If you don't like what is on the site...stay off of it! By the way it is obvious most of the information is supplied by CMPD officers. It is received in such a prompt and concise manner any fool can figure that out!

I see where the mouth has been on Crime in Charlotte and over at the Charlotte Observer posting names of cops he thinks are part of Cedar Posts. Of course the Observer pulled the comments with the names as did the other blogs. Any one got a idea who this jerk is?

yes and we'll see if Rodney Monroe fires this psych case even though the guy has said he is an unreserved supporter of Monroe's.

Disturbed cops give all the other ones a bad name.

Lack of good leadership needs to be exposed. Bad cops need to be exposed and dealt with. No good cop would complain about that or put out dangerous attacks against CMPD members or anyone else. Disgusting.

A ranting lunatic putting targets on people should be reported immediately to IA and the DA. That's the responsibilty of every other officer, partner, friend, family member, supervisor. They don't deserve a badge and are in need of psychiatric help, at least.

Any legitimate concern would be handled in a legitimate way.

From the sound of his posts everywhere and exposing people on here, he clearly has problems.

One name keeps coming up over and over when I hear people talk about this.....but unlike this cyber stalker, I don't have proof so I won't post it.

But I believe that Rodney and his Posse have to know his identity, and why he as chosen this particular time to strike out at Cedar and other Bloggers.

Kind of a sad guy, it is his choice to come here and read the Blog. And if it clearly makes him so unhappy and angry, you have to question why he keeps coming back?
