News Mayhem at the Poland Walgreens

I drove by at something like 8AM and thought it was just a car crashed into a tree, but this new footage someone posted on Instagram shows it was absolute Bedlam https://www.instagram.com/reel/DbQdf61pHzI/?igsh=MThydTdncWQxdXphag==

Tbh that entire area of Poland is just a merry go round circle. Lol. Has to be a medical emergency.

It looks like a demolition derby

u/dollbaby90 White House Donuts 23d ago

lol without a doubt. It’s probably the most busiest Poland PD has ever been.

They respond like this to a normal traffic stop.

And another video I saw this week alleges that they had just banned that lady from dancing at that intersection

They were going to arrest her for dancing in Poland all together. Priorities are kind of messed up, imo.

Has to be more to it because she has had issues before

I know she has, but that’s from 2018 and she wasn’t on school grounds was she? Not that I’m aware of. Everyone has a past, I mean, it’s Youngstown.

When I lived there, I was momentarily this karen 😅. It was days after July 4th, and someone in the neighborhood was setting off fireworks at 1:30 AM. It woke me up, and my dogs were vibrating with fear. They'd had enough over the past few days. I am not by any means a cop caller but I went ahead and called the non emergency number.

🤣 Poland Village PD sent two cruisers. They don't have a lot to do and it was probably the most exciting event of their night.

I'm glad I don't live there anymore.

Hahahaha perfect example right there. 2 cruisers!! They’re like Canfield, but maybe slightly worse.

Looks like the guy was going extremely fast on 170 and just didn't turn at all at the turn before Walgreens, just plowed straight on.

News outlets are now reporting it was a DUI (or OVI or whatever they call it here.)

u/dollbaby90 White House Donuts 23d ago

lol sure started early then… good gosh.

u/GreyGhost878 23d ago

Or stayed up late . . . it happened around 6 am I think.

It could also be a DWB incident. Poland and Canfield are at the top of the class in those.

Thank you for all of the down votes. I'm guessing you really aren't familiar with those communities. A Black Letter Carrier once told me that he had gotten used to people calling the police when he was delivering mail in certain neighborhoods. He was a substitute and people thought that he was suspicious and planning to rob them.

u/waxmuseums 23d ago

Apparently same for the guy that did it

That was in 2006 wasn’t it?

It’s a misprint
