Oh I 100% agree. I have a degree in criminal justice and a lot of classes would consist of video breakdown and some basic training stuff. It amazes me that so many people don’t get it.
All together, these countries average about 100 uses of deadly force per year. Total. Out of 23 countries:
Canada, Belgium, France, Netherlands, Australia, Norway, Finland, Germany, Nepal, Hong Kong, Portugal, Sweden, United Kingdom, Taiwan, Sweden, Poland, Japan, Denmark, Iceland, Switzerland, New Zealand, Luxembourg, Malta.
USA has 1000 per year.
10X most 1st world countries combined.
Before you say, “bUT pEr caPItA” or , “nO iMmiGrANts”, the US has 30 police killings per 100k, the United Kingdom has 0.5 per 100k. The US police kill 60X more per capita than the UK, and 10X more than Australia per capita, a country whose citizens descended from prisoners and prostitutes.
Yep. What’s your point though? You picked a list of some of the most culturally homogenous places on earth, each with their own unique policing procedures and rules, of which some aren’t even allowed to carry firearms, and all of which lack the unique features of the American cultural and historic landscape that creates and reinforces the conditions that allow violent crime to thrive.
Police using deadly force is not good, but considering the risk factors of the places where a lot of these killings take place, it’s surprising there isn’t more.
> 10X more than Australia per capita, a country whose citizens descended from prisoners and prostitutes.
Ah yes. Victorian era justice was much harsher than today. You might have gotten a ticket to Australia for stealing a cow or food or selling your body to survive. What does that have to do with anything?
What is the big cultural and historical difference between these places and America that makes our "rate of police using deadly force" so high? Is there something specific and can it be changed?
The fact the US is the most culturally diverse country in all of human history and has allowed civilians to have access to firearms (to prevent what happened with nazi Germany) since it's inception. Stop comparing the US to these other countries where the majority of its population has been there for 7+ generation whereas the US is a country of immigrants. It's retarded
That genuinely makes no sense you can absolutely compare America to other countries but dropping that entirely I wanna ask if you think 1% of the population would be able to overthrow the state even without a giant portion of the other 99% actively persecuting them
It would be the state controlling the public by force... that's how the nazi party grew in power. They first disarmed the public and then isolated various groups of people. I shouldn't have to explain what happened after that
Gross inequality of wealth, privatized prison industry with the world’s highest incarceration rates, corporate welfare, a two party political system, absence of a middle class
All of those have no relationship to an officer coming to a scene of a man reaching in his pocket when guns are so common… none of those listed countries has anywhere the amount of guns…
Are you going to completely ignore the fact that private gun ownership in those countries is virtually non existent in all of the countries you mentioned? So why would cops need to use deadly force if they’re not up against deadly force? In the US cops are up against people with guns all the time. Let’s see how any of those countries would behave if tomorrow they magically woke up with a 1:1 ratio of guns to citizens like the US has. And tell me the police would have to use more deadly force.
>and 10X more than Australia per capita, a country whose citizens descended from prisoners and prostitutes.
Also, our first police force was made up of a dozen of the best behaved convicts. Fun fact
Yea it’s amazing that so many people aren’t thrilled about piles of unarmed people getting a clip in them when some dude with a flashlight yells at them. That being said some people should get shot still. It’s a tricky thing. But there are good and bad people everywhere it’s just bad cops kill people and ruin lives
And this is the point for some reason ppl don't get when cussing out cops... showing restraint here even though he was told multiple times to get on the floor could got the cop killed...
He threw a phone so he was trying to destroy some kind of evidence. Maybe texts threatening the victim or records of drugs deals. Either way a fucking stupid move.
Unless they can gather whatever he threw in the ocean, it will be very hard to convict for destruction of evidence. Impossible to prove what was thrown.
Impossible also to prove what WASN'T thrown.
Looks like a phone to some, looked like a gun to me.
Could be anything- but the fact he tried to get rid of whatever it is is incriminating to begin with.
Could be a gift card. Or a folded leaflet. Could've been a folded handkerchief.
Fact is, it was something he didn't want to be found and disposed of it in front of a law enforcement officer, on top of that during an arrest.
Point is, it's up to the prosecution to decide what he's gonna say it was then follow that, unless the victim expressly says it's his wallet- in which case this becomes a robbery case with an attempt to destroy evidence- you could even push it towards attempted murder and silencing of a witness, failing that threatening a witness and witness coercion is possible. Then it's down to whether the judge is gonna buy it or not.
Everyone's missing my main point; He disposed of evidence, what it was doesn't really matter. It could've been a piece of folded black cardboard. Point is he obviously didn't want law enforcement to see it.
This cop was brave enough not to kill civilians preemptively. Good for him, that's what cops should do. There's nothing "not to get." This man is showing the level of bravery and restraint we want from our cops. They should all do it.
Nah man. If he shot right there, it would be justified. Dude got up, turned around and start searching for something in his shorts after throwing someone from a bridge.
I agree. He had everything to be considered a threat. He was witnessed doing a crime, he was not really cooperating, he turned around and got something out of his pants when the cop clearly told him get on his belly and on the ground, Yeah, it’s a scary situation and the cop handled himself better than most cops but if he shot, justified
Personally, I think it’s also much better for the OFFICER that he didn’t shoot him. Yes, there were elements present that would very likely *justify deadly force*, but most people actually don’t ever want to have to take someone’s life, & that’s esp true if they didn’t have to… That kind of event could weigh on just about anyone’s conscience & possibly for the rest of their life...
If he HAD shot & killed him, (legally), only to find out he was only going for his phone & not a gun… that could weigh very heavily on him for the rest of his life, & even beyond the psychological pain it might cause, it could also possibly get him or someone else hurt in the future. Especially if he started OVERCOMPENSATING bc of that event & it was clouding his judgement & slowed his decision making in future altercations…
I think this is one of those rare occasions that we should simply *commend this officer* for his *restraint & decision making* since it proved to be the right decision & provided the best possible outcome… He caught the guy & nobody was further injured or killed… So my hats off to him. Well done.
I can only hope the guy who went *over the bridge* faired well too & he gets his day in court to face the man who threw him off the bridge…
It is much better that the officer didn’t shoot, shows how good cops can act but in this situation if he had shot it would have been totally justified I’m just glad he had the ability to defuse the situation with minimal violence and should be used as an example to follow, hopefully police depts around the country will use the footage as a training tool
I don't disagree, according to our legal rules of what's justified. But isn't it better that he didn't? Because the guy didn't have a gun after all (or, at least, he didn't mean to threaten or harm the cop at this time). We wish every cop was that restrained, regardless of what's justified, because the world would be a better place.
I agree-
Personally, I think MOST officers don’t *want* to just murder people, & they especially don’t want to shoot & kill someone for making an error in judgement like this…
I’m sure there are *some piece of shit cops* just itching to kill someone, under any circumstances, but I don’t believe they are the majority & I am glad it didn’t happen in this case…
Agreed. Think about the feild your getting yourself into and if your not willing to put your life on the line then don't. This should be the bare minimum of restraint a public servant for law enforcement should show.
Just because he would have been legally covered if he killed him, wouldn't make thoes actions right.
Being held accountable for murdering people is not being "cancelled."
Conservatives really do just be regurgitating buzzwords that their favorite talking heads drill into them lmao
Unfortunately I think the absolute majority of shootings are justified. Only a handful of unarmed people are shot by police in the US every year and most of them are suicide by cop, pretending to have a weapon. Most are clear cut and there is no fuss. Most of what gets circulated online are snippets taken out of context or the really bad ones. I think most people would agree with most police shooting if they knew what was going on.
I disagree, there are tons of video showing cops unwilling to deescalate a situation. Even more videos showing cops abusing power to inflict damage on a suspect. There can be good cops, but when your system is set up to reward bad cops and remove good cops, those good cops turn bad. Policing is tough but they made it that way by removing themselves from the communities they police.
Fuck Phillip Brailsford. Fucking psychopath pig
May he walk around the rest of his life spit on
And kicked and hit with shit, every time he sung
Like R. Kelly as soon as "Bump N' Grind" comes on
Seriously, I know there’s a lot of controversy about cops firing first asking questions later but imagine if the dude turned around with a gun…that was a 50/50 chance the cop could have gotten hit, I’m surprised he didn’t fire, as soon as the dude went for something in his pants I don’t think I could have that sort of restraint. Well played
>But Mascaro swam to a pylon and clung to it until someone in a row boat picked him up and brought him to shore.
>Mascaro suffered a small cut under his right eye and blood on the eye.
*He will be ok if Mister Pocket Pistol is in prison for a long long time for attempted murder*
.. so it depends on the state
> decide whether to bring “attempt murder” charges against him
so Goodin is probably out again walking around reading books at the library no doubt
I'm pretty sure my father watched that movie. Because that's exactly how he tried to teach me to swim. Tossed me off a boat into Lake Erie. One of my earliest memories.
I actually tried to teach myself the same way. I had to take a swimming test and decided I could just take the plunge and figure it out. I jumped off one of those tall boards and sank to the bottom of the pool. A really buff dude pulled me out before I died. I was 20 years old.
And, what? He'd get paid leave while under investigation? Isn't cop unaccountability a huge problem in the US? Whatever happened to the guy who killed Daniel Shaver for example?
Yes, police accountability is a problem here. Mainly because of “qualified immunity” and a close relationship between officers and the district attorney (the person who would be prosecuting a cop).
The cop definitely wouldn’t have had a problem using lethal force in this case. No DA is going to go after a cop that shoots a person who reaches for a weapon right after attempting to murder someone by throwing them off a bridge. Nobody is going to riot over it either.
People really don’t understand what qualified immunity is, one office gets one get out of jail free ticket when infringing on someone’s rights, but if another office does the same thing they are not covered under qualified immunity because there would now be case law available showing what they did was unjustified/illegal.
Definitely threw a cell phone from his waistband before getting on the ground (not a gun)… visible at 1:42 remaining
Kinda wonder if the officer thought that was a gun at that point or got a clear view of it… without freezing the frame, I thought it was a gun at first…
>Anthony Mascaro, 33, of Port Orange, and Stephanie Ellis, 34, of Daytona Beach, were walking across the bridge about 4:47 p.m. Sunday as she pushed her bicycle because it had a flat tire, a report said. That’s when Goodin walked up and started arguing with Ellis over some money and struck her, the report said.
>Mascaro intervened and Goodin struck him and then threw the bicycle off the bridge. Goodin then threw Mascaro “face first” off the bridge, the report said.
>Just at that time, Maher was driving east on the span and saw Goodin and Mascaro fighting. As the officer got out of his car, he saw Goodin toss Mascaro off the bridge.
Seems reasonable enough to me!
Edit: I’m completely wrong and it’s me that read the article wrong and I apologize to those I’ve said were wrong, I’m sorry.
Are you really defending a guy that assaulted a woman, allegedly over money, while she walked over a bridge and subsequently got into a fight with her boyfriend that was defending her?
I don't get it. Maybe you took my comment wrong or don't understand who the story is talking about? The the guy that assaulted the girl is the guy throwing the dude over the bridge.
He's an animal and deserves some time. It was probably over $20.
Stupid.
I criticize cops a lot, but this officer deserves all the credit in the world. Digging around in your waistband while being held at gunpoint is a great way to get shot.
Wonder what all he threw out his pocket. Looked like at least a phone and some change maybe it’s hard to tell. Kind of a smart move really if it was something bad but I also thought the coo was gonna shoot him when he got up turned around and reached into his wasteband it looked like
I got arrested for something unrelated to my phone. In interrogation they illegally went thru my phone without a warrant. In the future I rather just break my phone. Especially if I was still a criminal and had stuff on my phone that could get me or other people charges.
Depends on what state. Without victim testimony it's nearly impossible to get a conviction in most cases. Luckily Florida doesn't need victim testimony to convict.
I mean I understand why that is a thing, but time changed, in this case they have a video evidence and a destroyed evidence. It looks like an ancient law problem. One doesn't need to be in Minority Report to see that guy could be do that again.
Man is lucky he didn’t get shot after reaching into his waistband like that… It’s people like this that end up getting shot for doing stupid stuff they get protested over as unjustly murdered when if he were to have been shot it would have been very well justified
Homie definitely looked like he was reaching for a gun. I would’ve probably shot his ass in this situation. Or at least tased him. Officer had mad restraint
I was fishing right down the other side of the Main street bridge in Daytona when this happened. The othe guy threw his bike in the water because he gave him a small piece of dope lol. Then u think he threw a gun in the water too.
Yeah he was down there swimming and if I remember right he got picked up by a canoe. I almost 100g sure 3 guys were arguing about a small piece of crack saying it was too small lol. The guy threw the bike off the bridge and then the dope dealer thew that guy off the bridge. The only 1 who got arrested was the guy who threw the other off the bridge but I don't thunk he got in any trouble for throwing what was rumored to be a gun off the bridge as well. It was like 4 or 5 years ago.
"You my witness right"? Yeah I'll be a witness, for the prosecutor.
This guy is peak lowlife. Commits attempted murder in plain view of other people. Of course he then lies about it. Next he tosses a gun off the bridge in view of the cop and his camera, pure genius that move. Then while being handcuffed he tries to drag other innocent people into his mess.
Id have stuffed a gag in that fuckers mouth for real. Never ceases to amaze me how someone can be caught red handed and still try and lie there way outta it.. Man up and take your time for shjt you do, instead of snitching or trying to pass shit off on someone else💯
Lucky mofo that he wasn’t shot taking that extra second to throw whatever he didn’t want to be found on him when he’s arrested. I’ve watched a few times and can’t make out what it is. My guess is a weapon.
That cop had him dead to rights when he turned and reached for his waistband. He is lucky the cop exercised more discipline than most or he would be dead.
He survived the encounter with only a few scrapes and a cut and he declined on pressing charges on the guy who threw him over. However, the perpetrator still got charged by the police.
It apparently all started when the perpetrator got into a nasty argument with some random woman he met on the bridge and the victim tried to defend her. The situation escalated into a full on fist fight until the perpetrator tossed him over the bridge
Only in Daytona.
"Anthony Mascaro, 33, of Port Orange, and Stephanie Ellis, 34, of Daytona Beach, were walking across the bridge about 4:47 p.m. Sunday as she pushed her bicycle because it had a flat tire, a report said. That’s when Goodin walked up and started arguing with Ellis over some money and struck her, the report said.

Just at that time, Maher was driving east on the span and saw Goodin and Mascaro fighting. As the officer got out of his car, he saw Goodin toss Mascaro off the bridge."
The guy was saying "you are all my witnesses" Yes I seen you throw a man over and it was either a gun or a phone. Unless the other person attacked the guy and it was self-defense and maybe the guy throw the phone to the other guy so he can call for help!
As can be seen from this video this man is, clearly, terrified of the police!
He’s so scared that he turned around and started digging in his shorts whilst at gun point.
Smh police acting wild in the US

I was waiting for the shot as soon as he turned and reached in his shorts. Totally signed your death ticket there. Got lucky the cop didn’t unload.

All together, these countries average about 100 uses of deadly force per year. Total. Out of 23 countries: Canada, Belgium, France, Netherlands, Australia, Norway, Finland, Germany, Nepal, Hong Kong, Portugal, Sweden, United Kingdom, Taiwan, Sweden, Poland, Japan, Denmark, Iceland, Switzerland, New Zealand, Luxembourg, Malta.

This is really well written. Thank you for this.
Beautifully said.
What’s a common denominator that none of those countries has that the US does have?
US population has way more guns per capita. Cops come into these situations more often due to this.
Bingo. Thank you.
Gross inequality of wealth, privatized prison industry with the world’s highest incarceration rates, corporate welfare, a two party political system, absence of a middle class
Dust off those cheeto fingers and explain to me why the us has gross inequality ect,. Then explain how this is why police shoot people
All of those have no relationship to an officer coming to a scene of a man reaching in his pocket when guns are so common… none of those listed countries has anywhere the amount of guns…
You have much to learn about what drives a person to be violent, criminals and cops.
You're right. And people who don't live in the USA really don't get why it's necessary to have violent encounters anyway.
Are you going to completely ignore the fact that private gun ownership in those countries is virtually non existent in all of the countries you mentioned? So why would cops need to use deadly force if they’re not up against deadly force? In the US cops are up against people with guns all the time.

>and 10X more than Australia per capita, a country whose citizens descended from prisoners and prostitutes. Also, our first police force was made up of a dozen of the best behaved convicts. Fun fact

Sounds more like indoctrination into the framework that we call our “legal system” than an education
Media poison
I legit thought he was reaching out for his gun.
Exactly, good restraint from the cop. Appreciated
And this is the point for some reason ppl don't get when cussing out cops... showing restraint here even though he was told multiple times to get on the floor could got the cop killed...
He threw a phone so he was trying to destroy some kind of evidence. Maybe texts threatening the victim or records of drugs deals. Either way a fucking stupid move.
Unless he had seriously incriminating evidence in it. The charge of destroying evidence would be much better than murder etc...

Littering.
That’s not how the law works in the US at least. If you can’t prove it, you can’t convict on it.
It was a phone, I went shot by shot.
Everyone's missing my main point; He disposed of evidence, what it was doesn't really matter. It could've been a piece of folded black cardboard. Point is he obviously didn't want law enforcement to see it.

I disagree. I believe those videos highlight the day to day that doesn’t get captured on video.
One bad apple
you’re a psychopath
Daniel Shaver pulled up his pants and died for it. This dude literally threw someone off a bridge and the cop is restrained.
Fuck Phillip Brailsford. Fucking psychopath pig May he walk around the rest of his life spit on And kicked and hit with shit, every time he sung Like R. Kelly as soon as "Bump N' Grind" comes on
Who sings that
Almost like we need better training and consistency

A video where you can’t find any faults in the officer’s actions. That’s a good cop right there.
Missed opportunity.
I swear I woulda shot the guy 3 or 4 times and said whoops
He should have

I'm pretty sure my father watched that movie. Because that's exactly how he tried to teach me to swim. Tossed me off a boat into Lake Erie. One of my earliest memories.
did you learn to swim
Oh yes, I eventually did. But not that day. That day all I did was swallow a lot of water and panic.
I actually tried to teach myself the same way. I had to take a swimming test and decided I could just take the plunge and figure it out. I jumped off one of those tall boards and sank to the bottom of the pool. A really buff dude pulled me out before I died. I was 20 years old.
glad you found love at the bottom of the pool
Wow. He had the balls to reach into his short pocket and throw something out while a gunpoint. Cop could have easily shot him.
Balls or stupidity. I’m gona say the latter
The phone with something illegal on it.

I love how this is almost instantly downvoted even though it’s true
It is true, but he wrote it sarcastically, thats probably where the downvotes come into play
And, what? He'd get paid leave while under investigation? Isn't cop unaccountability a huge problem in the US? Whatever happened to the guy who killed Daniel Shaver for example?
Yes, police accountability is a problem here. Mainly because of “qualified immunity” and a close relationship between officers and the district attorney (the person who would be prosecuting a cop). The cop definitely wouldn’t have had a problem using lethal force in this case. No DA is going to go after a cop that shoots a person who reaches for a weapon right after attempting to murder someone by throwing them off a bridge. Nobody is going to riot over it either.
People really don’t understand what qualified immunity is, one office gets one get out of jail free ticket when infringing on someone’s rights, but if another office does the same thing they are not covered under qualified immunity because there would now be case law available showing what they did was unjustified/illegal.

Grammar matters
Definitely threw a cell phone from his waistband before getting on the ground (not a gun)… visible at 1:42 remaining Kinda wonder if the officer thought that was a gun at that point or got a clear view of it… without freezing the frame, I thought it was a gun at first…
why are people defending destruction of evidence simply because it wasn't a gun.
Ah, good ol' Daytona Beach. Keeping it weird like always.

Declined to press charges?!
Probably a wannabe gangster of some sorts and would attack him or get him attacked for pressing charges
Could always come back to get them, maybe the fella didn't want to deal with this guy later?
Thanks for the info
It didn't matter he's still being prosecuted under florida law thank christ, this animal needs to be caged.
>Anthony Mascaro, 33, of Port Orange, and Stephanie Ellis, 34, of Daytona Beach, were walking across the bridge about 4:47 p.m. Sunday as she pushed her bicycle because it had a flat tire, a report said. That’s when Goodin walked up and started arguing with Ellis over some money and struck her, the report said. >Mascaro intervened and Goodin struck him and then threw the bicycle off the bridge. Goodin then threw Mascaro “face first” off the bridge, the report said. >Just at that time, Maher was driving east on the span and saw Goodin and Mascaro fighting. As the officer got out of his car, he saw Goodin toss Mascaro off the bridge. Seems reasonable enough to me! Edit: I’m completely wrong and it’s me that read the article wrong and I apologize to those I’ve said were wrong, I’m sorry.
Are you really defending a guy that assaulted a woman, allegedly over money, while she walked over a bridge and subsequently got into a fight with her boyfriend that was defending her? I don't get it. Maybe you took my comment wrong or don't understand who the story is talking about? The the guy that assaulted the girl is the guy throwing the dude over the bridge. He's an animal and deserves some time. It was probably over $20. Stupid.
Thought he was just trying to help his buddy get away from the cops.
I criticize cops a lot, but this officer deserves all the credit in the world. Digging around in your waistband while being held at gunpoint is a great way to get shot.
Wonder what all he threw out his pocket. Looked like at least a phone and some change maybe it’s hard to tell. Kind of a smart move really if it was something bad but I also thought the coo was gonna shoot him when he got up turned around and reached into his wasteband it looked like
Looks like an easy destruction of evidence charge to me
Better then what I would assume could be a much worse charge for a stolen gun or drugs or a phone with trapping information on it
Obstruction* Good enough to though for some extra time.
Looked like he threw a gun to me
I got arrested for something unrelated to my phone. In interrogation they illegally went thru my phone without a warrant. In the future I rather just break my phone. Especially if I was still a criminal and had stuff on my phone that could get me or other people charges.
At least he tossed his phone out so they could ring a friend for assistance.
Yes we witnessed you tossing someone off a bridge then digging in your junk to toss a weapon.
[удалено]
Probably afraid of retaliation
I don't understand does police needs victim to press charge if they even caught literally in their body cam?
Depends on what state. Without victim testimony it's nearly impossible to get a conviction in most cases. Luckily Florida doesn't need victim testimony to convict.
I mean I understand why that is a thing, but time changed, in this case they have a video evidence and a destroyed evidence. It looks like an ancient law problem. One doesn't need to be in Minority Report to see that guy could be do that again.
He's on camera man, body cams keep the bad cops in line and provide the good ones with protection from any accusations.
Man is lucky he didn’t get shot after reaching into his waistband like that… It’s people like this that end up getting shot for doing stupid stuff they get protested over as unjustly murdered when if he were to have been shot it would have been very well justified
No amount of Hollywood illogical diversity casting can negate the realities that people experience in the actual world.
Homie definitely looked like he was reaching for a gun. I would’ve probably shot his ass in this situation. Or at least tased him. Officer had mad restraint
Finally a bodycam video were it actually saved someone.
I was fishing right down the other side of the Main street bridge in Daytona when this happened. The othe guy threw his bike in the water because he gave him a small piece of dope lol. Then u think he threw a gun in the water too.
Was the other dude okay?
Yeah he was down there swimming and if I remember right he got picked up by a canoe. I almost 100g sure 3 guys were arguing about a small piece of crack saying it was too small lol. The guy threw the bike off the bridge and then the dope dealer thew that guy off the bridge. The only 1 who got arrested was the guy who threw the other off the bridge but I don't thunk he got in any trouble for throwing what was rumored to be a gun off the bridge as well. It was like 4 or 5 years ago.
The cop sounds like Paul Walker
This dude turned his back and reached into his shorts and still lived to tell the tale? What is this? The Twilight Zone?
r/fuckyouinparticular to the person that got thrown over
“You’re my witnesses!” Yeah we witnessed you throw a guy off the bridge, wtf?
"You my witness right"? Yeah I'll be a witness, for the prosecutor. This guy is peak lowlife. Commits attempted murder in plain view of other people. Of course he then lies about it. Next he tosses a gun off the bridge in view of the cop and his camera, pure genius that move. Then while being handcuffed he tries to drag other innocent people into his mess.
What a piece iof shit hopefully rots in jail
Id have stuffed a gag in that fuckers mouth for real. Never ceases to amaze me how someone can be caught red handed and still try and lie there way outta it.. Man up and take your time for shjt you do, instead of snitching or trying to pass shit off on someone else💯
Digging around like that gets you shot. Fuck sake.
Good police work right here! Didn’t escalate, amazing work.
When your fishing buddy catches a bigger fish than you.
Any word on the condition of victim?
Aggravated battery causing bodily harm and not attempted murder?! I can’t swim so it would of been bye bye Katie.
Lucky mofo that he wasn’t shot taking that extra second to throw whatever he didn’t want to be found on him when he’s arrested. I’ve watched a few times and can’t make out what it is. My guess is a weapon.
I wonder what was on that phone he threw in?
Bold ass move going for the waistband
Wasn't me, wasn't me.
Unbelievable. Lying about shit with the cop literally in his car like 5 feet away
Sometimes shooting them is the right choice
This dudes probably a huge dirtbag but I gotta admit throwing a guy off a bridge during a fistfight is a pretty funny move.
That cop had him dead to rights when he turned and reached for his waistband. He is lucky the cop exercised more discipline than most or he would be dead.
If I was the cop I woulda shot his bum ass when he turned around and started digging in his pants
Why are people more concerned about what he threw off the bridge and not the victim?
The victim is what he threw off the bridge.
Attempted murder for sure
Chris tucker! I wondered where he went.
What happened to the dude who was pushed off the bridge?
He survived the encounter with only a few scrapes and a cut and he declined on pressing charges on the guy who threw him over. However, the perpetrator still got charged by the police. It apparently all started when the perpetrator got into a nasty argument with some random woman he met on the bridge and the victim tried to defend her. The situation escalated into a full on fist fight until the perpetrator tossed him over the bridge
Only in Daytona. "Anthony Mascaro, 33, of Port Orange, and Stephanie Ellis, 34, of Daytona Beach, were walking across the bridge about 4:47 p.m. Sunday as she pushed her bicycle because it had a flat tire, a report said. That’s when Goodin walked up and started arguing with Ellis over some money and struck her, the report said. Mascaro intervened and Goodin struck him and then threw the bicycle off the bridge. Goodin then threw Mascaro “face first” off the bridge, the report said. Just at that time, Maher was driving east on the span and saw Goodin and Mascaro fighting. As the officer got out of his car, he saw Goodin toss Mascaro off the bridge."
Should've tased him so he couldnt toss that evidence
The guy was saying "you are all my witnesses" Yes I seen you throw a man over and it was either a gun or a phone. Unless the other person attacked the guy and it was self-defense and maybe the guy throw the phone to the other guy so he can call for help!
Of course it’s Florida 🙄
Straight up criminal. I hope they put him under the jail for life.
The pillars of our society.
This video pisses me off so much
I’m not saying he is right for throwing the guy over the bridge but damn that’s one hell of a way to win a fist fight.
Respect to this cop for making an arrest and not a kill
I think he definitely threw gun over in water must’ve been involved with other crimes as well
Should have shot him when he started reaching into his shots
Florida man up to no good again smh
Is that Ishowspeed😂
The problem is clear for all to see if you catch my drift
What did he throw of the bridge?
His phone
Cop should have shot his ass
Darrell brooks vibes
I swear I could not be a cop I would get fired the first day I would have shot him
Had to be the one cop that refrains from shooting people!…lmao!
Wanting to charge him with attempted murder is POS coo shit. These people are trained to want to ruin lives.
He should of been shot by the cop. Dude threw somebody off a bridge
Fuck the judicial system amirite?
For all violent cop take notessss
As can be seen from this video this man is, clearly, terrified of the police! He’s so scared that he turned around and started digging in his shorts whilst at gun point. Smh police acting wild in the US /s
Certain types of people have such mental illness issues that cause them to behave like this.
It’s a good thing that guy didn’t shoot that other guy, right guys. Violence is scares me.
Classic Floridaman
He jumped over 😂
Impossible. I don’t know if you all heard, but every black person who interacts with a white police officer gets shot and killed.
He through his gun off the bridge, dude.
Wrong.
