Citizen Who Tried Pulling Over Cop Charged For Reckless Driving
This man is a hero!
SOUTHGATE, Mich. — He rolled up alongside a Detroit police officer and shouted, "Where's your damn seatbelt?" while his home video camera was rolling. Now, Steve McClain of Southgate says he's in trouble with the law for reckless driving.
McClain's video shows the officer peering out the window of his patrol car as the man behind the camera shouts, "You are required by law to wear your seatbelt. Put your damn seatbelt on!" He also repeatedly orders the officer to pull over shouting, "Who the hell do you think you are?" The officer never stops.
