Personal Narrative Essay: A Night At The Dance Marathon

521 Words3 Pages

This night I rode with Officer Innocent. Unlike the other officers I rode with he is closer to my age and could give me a lit bit more of feedback on where I am in my career and plans. Most of the night was working security at the Dance Marathon on Livingston at the RAC. Mostly we just walked around and watched students and if we got a call we headed out. However, at least from the looks of the night everybody who was out was at this Dance Marathon so the night was a little slow. This night taught me two things if I do end up working for RUPD. One the officers have a bunch of over time options for Rutgers events which is good. An two that a lot of policing this community is just making your presence known and talking with students. We did security till …show more content…

Three people had been attacked according to them 10 Asian males and the three gentlemen were very angry because the CSO were patrolling saw this occurring and reported it to RUPD but, they were angry because they didn’t chase after them. Emts were there because the one guy was laying on the ground and his leg was pretty messed up. The best way to describe this whole situation was very hostile. These gentlemen were hostile to everyone RUPD, the CSOs, and the EMTs. An here I learned that also part of being a police officer is it is better to try and defuse people than try and use force and make the situation worse. I was very impressed by Officer Brenton and Innocent handling of the situation. They were very calm did not get confrontational with these guys at all and were just trying to help them. The one laying on the ground was yelling “I can’t afford to go to the hospital I don’t have the money” to the EMTs and Officer Innocent was saying “they are just trying to help you man” and we did not leave until he was in the ambulance. After that it was around 4 and I was

  • Why Do Police Officers Use Excessive Force?

    1121 Words  | 5 Pages

    Police officers have vowed their life to protect and serve. They risk their lives every day for their communities. As the last few years have sped past us, police officers have been very aggressive with the force they use when arresting a suspect, or even people in general. According to a Texas article on Civil Liberties and Civil Rights, “police officers typically use force offensively rather than defensively and do so with at least some degree of premeditation.” (Gross,2013, page 167).

  • Racism And Police Brutality

    According to the FBI, 49,851 officers were assaulted in the line of duty, with an injury rate of 29.2 percent and twenty- seven were murdered in 2012. This makes police officials go into a panic mode and I believe it affects their judgment when it comes to using certain forces on suspects. For example, there was a case where a man wasn’t cooperating with police officials, so the police officials used a taser gun on him. Still, the man refused to go down and three other police officers jumped in to help out. The four officers decided to use excessive force by beating the man with a police stick and tasered him multiple times.
