Alabama cop gets ARRESTED and FIRED for beating up innocent person!
Indian grandfather slammed down by Madison cop after caller reported 'black guy'

Posted: Feb 13, 2015 8:03 PM

MADISON, Ala. (AP) — A grandfather from India who was slammed to the ground by a police officer in a northern Alabama suburb had been singled out by police after a caller said a "skinny black guy" with a toboggan hat was walking in the neighborhood and peering into garages, recordings show.

The man, Sureshbhai Patel, 57, doesn't speak English and was slammed to the ground face-first by an officer when he didn't respond to commands. But he had committed no crime, the Madison police chief said.

Officer Eric Parker was arrested and is being fired. He has not commented publicly, and court records were not available Friday to show whether he has a lawyer.

Shouldn't hire young kids as cops. Too much testosterone. No cop should be under the age of 32.

Would he have been fired if it had been a white or black American?

STFU you stupid tool.

I read he was visiting his family here and was merely taking a walk down the street.

While people in America are scared to travel abroad, due to terrorism and crime, foreigners have to fear coming to visit here because of our cops?

So it's official, they are more corrupt than even the Mexican cops now or more brutal than Brazil?

Walking down a sidewalk in the suburbs... That cop is an embarrassment. I hope someone slams his head to the ground.

Peering into garages is the same very thing as looking in windows for shit to steal. The cops were called because a stranger was being a peeping tom, and when confronted he resisted them and refused to speak English...so he got his ass kicked for being an Indian dick.

The grandparents are here to care for their frNdchild while their son finishes graduate school.

This is in Madison, Alabama, a bedroom community for Cummings Research Park where mostly engineers and PhD's live, literally real,rocket scientists.

You can tell from the background that this is not an area good for stealing anything as it is too open. Besides, the man was on the sidewalk.

He is now partially paralyzed which is expected to go away once the swelling subsides and you can bet this is going to cost the taxpayers of Madison millions to settle. Over $100,000 has. Even donated to the Patel family to help with their expenses in this and his treatment if needed.

There is no history of any problems between the police and the Indian community in the area.

There is an FBI investigation into whether or not his civil rights were violated.

I normally support the police but not this time.

What was that cop thinking!

 Quoting: Bluebird


The cops were called for a reason. Even if they were just patrolling, the guy must have done something to get their attention and make them stop to ask him questions. Then it says he jerked away from them several times, if he's so damn smart he wouldn't have resisted them. Mr. genius rocket scientist should have learned some basic English before running around snooping in peoples windows.

 Quoting: BRIEF


He wanted to take a walk. There is no evidence that he was ever off of the sidewalk. Someone called 911 and reported a black man in a toboggan and claimed he was looking in garages but no one ever said windows and was referring to the open garage doors which is ludicrous.

Every 911 call is not legitimate and that one certainly wasn't but the cop slammed him some 90 seconds after encountering him. Patel even pointed to the house of his son and told them the house number. I don't see him pulling away at all. The cop just says he is and slams him in sort sort of mental rage lapse.
Brief, you are the only one saying windows as that was never the claim. He never left the sidewalk. He is elderly and frail and hardly running around doing anything.

Oh, yes, Mr. Hothead Cop has just cost the taxpayers of Madison a bundle and for what? You can tell the supervisor is appalled as he tries to assist Patel and remove debris from his face.

I am only disappointed the cop is just charged with assault and not felonious assault which it certainly was.

Normally, I try to support the police but not this time. This is just plain wrong.
