what the fuck?! that’s so outrageous. a run-in with a bad cop is almost a right of passage in new york, but that shit is just downright offensive.
The cop has since had his badge and gun yanked while the incident is being investigated.
“The biker, Christopher Long, of Hoboken, N.J., was arrested because he was obstructing traffic in the heart of Times Square, a criminal complaint said. He was charged with attempted assault, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct.
The complaint said Long, 29, deliberately steered his bicycle into the officer, causing both of them to fall to the ground.
During his arrest, Long squirmed and kicked, saying to the officers, “You are pawns in the game. I’m gonna have your job,” the complaint said.”
