Metro Police Arrest Another
Last time I blogged about the Metro police, a woman was arrested for eating a Payday candy. This time the Metro police arrested a 5-month pregnant woman.
Apparently, the Metro police told the woman to lower her voice because she was cursing a bit louder than normal on her cell phone. However, the woman ignored the police twice. So, the police then forced her onto the ground, with his knee on her back and arrested her.
The woman said that when the knee was on her back, she feared that her water would break and the fetus would be harmed. However, a doctor later confirmed that her fetus is unharmed.
You can read the article about the incident here. This incident has gotten international attention.
According to today's Washington Post Express...the head of the Metro Police Transit will be reviewing techniques that could help officers dealing with difficult people more effectively.
Well, luckily the woman's fetus was ok. For sure, if she miscarried or whatever, the Metro Police will be receiving a big fat lawsuit.
Whadda think?
