So, is your son okay? >> Yeah, he brought him out of broke his phone. Hey, Justin. Ted Stokes. Hey, I've got I've got two police officers at my house. This is the most unbelievable thing I've ever seen. Tucker hit a non-moving car on a road. We gave the insurance. Can I get a 1027 by number? >> Everything was good. I think he called to make a report just to make it fine. Two officers show up at my house, walk up to my front door. >> 24718. >> Don't tell me anything other than we're here to do an investigation. And the other officer is still sitting here as backup. Like this is Justin, I'm sorry, but >> sorry 1099. >> This can't happen, man. >> Like this other officer needs to leave and stop making needs to go. >> Yes, correct. >> Finally to give a report to this, but he like he wouldn't even tell me. He It wasn't like, "Hey, Ted, we're here. It's it's officer Hansen." I'm I'm blown away by this, Justin. I promise you, I will do everything in my power as a city council member to make sure these guys are defunded. There will be five police officers in this town cuz this is unbelievable that I have a this guy needs a backup officer to make sure I don't hurt him at my house for for for my son hitting a a car non-moving. I waited a half an hour at the guy's house to give him his his insurance policy. I'm fine with him making a police report. I'm blown away by the fact that right in the middle of my Sunday dinner, my daughter's birthday party with five other or five other cars here for guests. I've got 40 people at my house for a birthday party and I've got two I've got two officers at my house and this guy's >> Can I talk to Who's the other officer? >> Mcome. >> Mcome. >> I've got Hansen and Mcome. This is unbelievable. Like get on Main Street the other officer and make go patrol. Instead, they're making sure city councilman Stokes doesn't do something. Like I don't know if this is retaliatory or what because I didn't vote. Like it better not be. I'm telling you, Justin. This is This is over. This is the last straw. I' I've got two two officers out in front of my house with four people in my house celebrating a birthday party. And he couldn't even tell me why he was here other than he was to investigate a car accident that he acted like we had done a hit and run for like that. That's how he approached me. He didn't say, "Hey, Ted, guess what? Like, some guy wants to make a report. We're here to do it. We understand you gave him your insurance information. Thanks for doing that, but we're obligated to make a I'm fine with that. You should have seen this guy approach." I said, "I'll send you the ring photo. You will be blown away by this. I I don't know what to say, Justin, but but that's this is the last straw. I know I've expressed my complaints, but this is it. This is the last straw. They're both here cuz he's afraid I'm going to jump him. I I I I approached him to talk to me. He says, "You you need to back up off of me. Back up off me." I'm standing here talking to you with a Sharpie in my hand. You think I'm going to hurt you? These guys are so untrained, Justin. It blows my mind. I am done. Like, I don't know if there's a way to amend amend the budget now, but I want to amend it and I'm going to talk. I'm going to call the other council members tonight. I'm going to tell them exactly what happened and we are amending it. Like, we are going to five officers. This is it. We need two officers on duty in the morning. We need two officers on duty in the afternoon. We need one officer on duty at night. This is the most unbelievable thing I have ever seen. Tell me when you can talk in the morning. Go enjoy your Sabbath. I need to talk to you first in the morning. >> This is This is unbelievable. >> All right. Well, let's talk about it in the morning. I I'm sorry, Justin. Like I know like Justin, this is culminating like the I've got other stories I could tell you. Last week an officer an officer pulled someone over or in front of ju just just in front of the in the the intersection of of Spring Creek Fitness or what's it called? Summit Creek Fitness. The guy pulled over like right past the intersection. The guy was an idiot, right? He pulled over like 5t past the intersection. So, our officer parked right in the middle of the intersection and no one could make a left-hand turn or a right-hand turn or go straight through a Main Street intersection for like 30 minutes while this guy did his stop. What would you have done, Justin, if you were the officer in that situation, tell me what you would have done. You would have you would you would have got out of the car. You would have gone up and said, "Hey, can you pull 20 ft forward so I can pull in behind you?" But no, no, no. We parked where the officer parked smack dab in the middle of the intersection and sat there and did his 20-minute stop. And I have pictures of it. I have pictures. I have videos. Like, Justin, we cannot fund this because it's not worth our money. These guys have no idea what they're doing. >> Oh, I'll take a picture. You can see both their trucks pulled up right here to handle this issue. I am I am done. Like, this is the last straw. It is the last straw. I am done with these guys. I I I'm embarrassed. I'm flat out embarrassed. I get a ticket three weeks ago for rolling through a stop sign at 7 a.m. and and the officer says, "Sorry, I had to do it." Turns out I find out him and him and him and him and the chief are giving each other high fives the next Monday. Like Justin, I've got three officers in the force who tell me everything. I know everything that's going on. Like, I am done with this. Like, it's it's done. Well, I I want >> I'll talk to you. I'll talk to you tomorrow morning. We there there's changes have to happen or there's going to be problems. Thanks. Bye. >> Okay. So, does your son need medical attention? >> No, he he I think he hurt his he was bleeding his nose pretty bad. We handled it, but like you know, we're competent parents. If he needed medical attention, we would take care. >> But you think he might have broke it? >> I don't know. We're We're going to go check it out tomorrow and see. Like, we would we would we would handle that, right? Tell me why you think I couldn't handle my son's medical attention. >> I think you can. >> Don't Isn't that my Isn't that my It's not a right. It's my legal obligation. >> But it's your right to be able to >> It's my right and my legal obligation. So So yeah. >> Okay. Uh can I talk to him? >> What What do you need to talk to him for? >> Just to find out what >> I can tell you what happened. He had city youth he had he had stake youth council. He's on a youth council for the church. Okay. >> He pulled out of the steak center. They gave them muffins. uh chocolate muffins. You can see them on the front seat. They spilled. He set the muffin on the seat and he was going to eat it when he got home because he's fasting and we were going to eat dinner at 5. And he set it down and the muffin fell down onto the carpet. You can see where the the frosting like got on the carpet. He bent down to pick it up, which he shouldn't have done. And he set it back up on the seat. When he looked up, he kind of veered off and hit this guy. >> Yeah. I have a sister that years and years ago did the almost the exact same thing. bent over, grabbed the steering wheel, went across the road. Luckily, he went this way instead of into oncoming traffic. >> Grateful though, no one was in the car. He's okay. He has a bloody nose. We'll look at it tomorrow and make sure it's not broken. >> Okay. Do you know if he was wearing his seat belt? >> He was. >> Do you know how fast he was going? >> I don't think I asked him. He said, "Dad, I pulled out of the the the thing and I had let off the gas cuz I'm going downhill anyways." He turns left at that intersection. The car got pushed about 15 ft. 10 to 15 ft. He turns left right there. So, he wouldn't be going too fast because he knows he's turning left right there. He should have turned left, but he bent over to get the muffin and >> Gotcha. >> hit it. Okay. Uh, at this point, I just need to fill out the the witness state or not the witness statement, but the accident exchange form. >> I mean, it that way both of you have the exact same information. Sure. >> So that you can contact your insurance company. I already did. I gave him our insurance. I hope he did, too. >> I don't have a problem with you making a report. >> It's two officers and it's the approach. >> Blows my mind, man. >> Okay. I can just >> I don't feel like I >> Yeah. No, you need to you need to you need to you need to handle that better. You need to say, "Hey, I heard your son was in an accident. Someone asked me to come make a report." And I would say, "Oh, was it the guy who got hit?" Instead, you come up to me like you're doing an FBI and get messages. >> I'm not getting into that cuz I tried to be friendly. need to >> I tried to be friendly the entire time. >> No. >> Tried to be friendly with you the entire time. I tried to strike up a conversation. >> Why are there two officers here? >> Justin's Justin's blown away. >> There is a vehicle that >> No say and that that's what you said too. I forgot about you said, "Hey, there's a vehicle that's been to that's been totaled on a on a roadside." As if we hit and run it. That's how you approached me. >> I until I get here, I don't know the full circumstance. I don't >> the person who called didn't say >> I'm going to start working on paperwork so that I don't waste more time. >> Let's finish this conversation. >> Hey, >> let's finish this conversation that you're up. Did you know you Hey, >> you said listen. You said I didn't know the whole situation. What What report did you receive? >> What do you mean? What were the words that the dispatch person told you? >> It's all on written records. >> So, no, no, you tell me. >> It's all I'm going to do. >> Why won't you just tell me? >> This is what I hate about you guys. The lack of transparency. >> Okay. >> Lack of transparency. All the bull crap. Like, it's done. Like, I'm sorry. You guys dug your own grave. >> Okay. >> It's unbelievable. Hey, >> Justin wants that other officer on Main Street. >> Okay. >> Go send him. >> Okay. 55. [Music] >> Hello. Yeah. Yeah, I know. That's fair. Okay. Okay. I'll get you on the right. Okay. Thanks.

Uh, so this is the accident exchange form. It has your the case number. It also has both of your insurance information that's on there. Some of it looks like I haven't put it in, but it's redacted. >> I understand. >> So, that >> I don't need his. Yeah. >> Yeah. Okay. So, what you'll need to do, like you've It sounds like you've already done it. Contact your insurance company. That's what they'd be looking for. Cool. Do you have any questions? >> No. >> Okay. >> Uh, do you want to fill out a witness statement or anything? Or does your son >> No, we're good. It's his fault. >> We didn't That's why we waited for 30 minutes for him to get home. >> I gave it to him. That's why we took care of it. I I expected someone might show up to just make a police report cuz sometimes the insurancees want that. >> I just suspected it. I didn't expect two officers. I didn't expect that approach. >> I Yeah, I had a second officer following me up here. >> It's unfortunate. So anyway, have a better day. See you.
