Heavy handed Riot Squad response to car crash
Perthville’s Police Department again showed itself to be clueless, sending Riot Police to arrest a truck driver accused of causing a car accident in East Perthville, in a typically heavy-handed response.
“Do we really need to send maximum and potentially lethal force to deal with traffic matters?” asked the President of Perthville Council for Civil Liberties. “It’s yet another example of over-policing, and a sign of distorted priorities in police planning, if the Traffic Branch has been starved of funds to fuel the egos of the Riot Squad.”
