[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 16437474, member: 6727"] To those who are criticizing how/why they couldn't subdue him before he broke free, you've probably never been in a situation like that where the person you're fighting is 100% intent on getting free. I've seen beefy cops even have trouble subduing an average size woman when the adrenaline is pumping or they're on drugs. I was talking to a friend of mine who was a cop for maybe 20 years. He retired early about 5 years ago due to an injury trying to subdue a male suspect. And my friend is not a small guy. He told me how he was in many a scuffle to subdue a suspect, and even with assistance from another officer it was often a very tiring thing to go through. He recalled one instance where he was subduing a guy and for long minutes repeatedly punched his body trying to get control. He was near exhaustion before the guy was finally in cuffs. The suspect....didn't appear to be tired at all. Someone intent on getting away, especially if they have drugs in their system, can put up one hell of a fight. So I'd be slow to judge an officer (or officers) when they have trouble subduing a suspect. JMO. [/QUOTE]
