VIDEO: Driver attacks NYPD traffic cops after being asked to move car away from fire hydrant

By: The Blaze, August 30, 2020:

A driver attacked two NYPD traffic safety agents after they asked him to move his car away from a fire hydrant in the Bronx, according to the NYPD.

Around 8 p.m. on Wednesday, two traffic cops approached the motorist and asked the man to move his 2008 silver Nissan Altima away from a fire hydrant in Fordham Heights because it was illegally parked. The man allegedly became enraged and started punching the two officers. The man knocked both officers to the ground with his vicious punches, and then drove away.

One officer suffered a bruised face and a sprained ankle, and the other agent also had bruising on his face. They were taken to a nearby hospital to have their injuries treated.

Adams Mandiata, one of the cops involved in the brawl, recounted the brawl. “I was backing up, backing up. He just punched my left eye so hard,” Mandiata told the New York Post. “I feel down. I couldn’t see anything.”

“This happens to traffic agents on the regular,” the other officer, Edwyn Stuart, who is an 11-year veteran, said. “Our job is a dangerous job.”

Both agents said that New York’s bail reform law that went into effect this year has emboldened criminals.

The driver is described as black, about 6-feet tall and weighing 200 pounds. He was seen wearing a white T-shirt, black and white sweat pants, and black and white sneakers in the video.

Anyone with information regarding the attack is asked to contact NYPD Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS.

On Friday afternoon, two more traffic agents were assaulted. The traffic cops were attempting to issue a summons when a driver began fighting with them. One of the agents was punched in the face and the other sustained a hand injury, according to WPIX-TV.

Violent crime has increased over the summer in the Big Apple. There has been a 200% increase in New York City shootings between June 15 and July 2 of this year, compared to the same time in 2019.

In July, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) hypothesized that the “uptick in crime” in New York City is because of “record unemployment in the United States.”

AOC also theorized that New Yorkers are desperate for bread.

“Maybe this has to do with the fact that people aren’t paying their rent and are scared to pay their rent,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “And so they go out and they need to feed their child and they don’t have money so you… maybe have to… they’re put in a position… they feel like they either need to shoplift some bread or go hungry that night.”

pamela, you need to be more honest with your readers. the adjective “black” needed to be put in front of “driver”. if the race of the perps was printed in every article about crime (like we used to do back in america), my guess is that 2020 america would be shocked at and realize they cannot ignore the huge percentage of crimes committed by a small percentage of the population. acknowledging facts ain’t racism

because the democrats control the national media, i guarantee you that 99% of america west of the hudson does not know this, and it affects how they vote. that’s why pamela needs to be brutally honest in her reporting

Maybe he was just having a ‘bad day’. (sarc) I bet he would have failed a drug test. Most of those people are on something illegal most of the time

When are the cops going to learn?
They are not to interfere with the black man.
At all, in any case.
They are to turn around and walk away.

Not to mention that his ‘women folk’ were attacking the police also, notable the small one. Are the Traffic cops not issued with tasers, they should be? The black guy was bigger than either of the cops as well so it was quite heroic of them to tackle him. This is how they get shot, not by behaving peacefully and obeying the law.

How is it that I was able to “guess” the ethnicity of the criminal? I must be psychic. Careful, though. Black males make up 6% of the population, but commit over 50% of all murders. That’s right. 6% of the population commit 50% of all murders, according to FBI crime statistics.
