    First of all I hope the officer is fine. Having said that . I hope the officer learns to ride soon because riding like that won’t catch nobody. LOL

    Let’s all try to be kind with your comments. These officers go through some very rigorous training in order to respond to crime in keeping our communities safer. My prayers go out the the officer and his colleagues, with wishes of a speedy recovery.

      I’m sure everyone is hoping that he is okay…..According to reports his injries are not life threatening…..In a few weeks time HE will be laughing at this incident himself…..And I’m sure his training buddies will be cracking jokes as well……
