If he knocked a cop down with his car, that could be a problem. Probably still reduced, but not to nothing.


The espn reporter witnessed the entire thing and had a different story. I think these cops will regret doubling down on their actions.

I’ll bet you Detective Gillis has other incidents of questionable use of force.

He still drives his Tahoe he had in college. But I think he was in a marked courtesy car for this incident.

At least he wasn’t black. Then every Wendy’s within a mile of that place would be burned down because he was wrongfully arrested.

He was in an official PGA vehicle

The earlier reports said the officer “attached himself to the car”.

Is that standard procedure?

Sounds to me like it’s his fault he got dragged and he’s trying to save face and not look like an unathletic idiot.

The hospital visit is to set up the law suit that will eventually follow.

Save face and looking for a lawsuit.

Will golfers being arrested be enough to get white people to riot?

That would be monumentally stupid.

Not to say Ambulance chasers aren’t calling him non stop right now

I’m sure jumping on the hood of a car is in the handbook. This cop sounds like a putz

I doubt it. That invites a fight he doesn’t want. WC and then disability just leaches from the system.

He was actually following the rules quite well race baiter.

The PGA and Valhalla had already communicated with the LPD and golfers were told they could do this.

This cop was not assigned to traffic.

Another officer was waiving Scheffler through at the same time this officer was telling him to stop
