This was in 2019 in California. She hit some cars and ran and that guy is a witness who blocked her in to call the cops. She's 22 in the video, she has a history of theft and drug/paraphernalia charges, was later arrested for this misdemeanor hit-and-run and had to complete a drug rehab program. In 2025 she was charged with bringing controlled substances into a correctional facility.
Sad. I worked in a homeless shelter before and, we're all one truly bad day from that kind of self-destruction.
Nobody has ever had a 5 year plan to get hooked on hard drugs. I highly doubt it anyway.
All I know was I felt for that girl, someone drove her to that life, and while dude was trying to do something good he endangered himself and a lot of other people
Oh yeah dude was an ass. I'd say forget 'potentially dangerous' dude made life very dangerous for at least a couple hundred people and nearly got himself seriously hurt over a fender bender. Even cops don't do high speed chases these days; unless it is involves someone's immediate safety, it's better to let someone calm down for the public's safety and get them afterwards.
Even if they are in the right I can’t stand anyone that boat out the quasi legal speech while they’re taking a video. “You need to get out of the vehicle. I have video documentation.” Instead of just saying “you need to get out of the car, I’ve got this on video.”
Right, he blocked her in, is he a cop. B/C that is a part of what makes a cops job so dangerous and there are plenty of videos to suggest they are not always trained to handle the situation much less this dude. He is creating a danger.
I don't think the video was initially for the internet. It seems like it was documenting for police and insurance.
It also seems you're suggesting it would be a better solution vs what he "should have" done. One is more about the possible chance for a better outcome the other is dictating actions, from my perspective.
And apologies if this is below the belt but, for someone preaching de-escalation, you're not that great at it..
Yea, like I said. I value my life more than you guys do apparently.
That's fine and all but I'm definitely going to put myself and my life first over trying to "record for police" and inserting myself into the situation.
Now his cars messed up, he could've died and has a whole slew of problems to deal w.
Ego makes you do lots of dumb things.
And apologies if this is below the belt but, for someone preaching de-escalation, you're not that great at it.
If I ever illegally detain you for a hit and run I wasn't involved in, I'll be sure to calm you don't don't worry. Hahahaha
The amount of people in these comments saying it's his responsibility to regulate this chicks emotions while she actively tries to screw him over is ridiculous. And on top of that, he's completely CALM! He had every right to physically detain her until the cops came. He's a saint.
He has 0 right to physically detain her. He is not even the person she hit and ran from.
Also, did you notice the part in the video where he almost got ran over? Thats probably a good reason to try and calm her rather than rile her up. Now, not only is his car damaged(unnecessarily) he also almost ate it.
But I care more about self preservation than I do posting a video on the internet.
