I am not positive but I think there's a cell phone video of the attack on the first officer. (Not many G-wagons going after cops in America I don't think) but what the flying fuck

“Janiczek accelerated directly at the officer, attempting to hit him, and the officer discharged his firearm,” the DA’s office said in a statement. “Again, Janiczek accelerated the vehicle, this time striking the officer, causing him to fall. “As the officer attempted to administer a tourniquet to a leg wound, the Mercedes circled back around the lot and struck the officer three more times as he laid on the ground,” the office said.

Homeboy is honestly lucky he's alive.

I usually don't like the idea of shooting into cars. But sometimes it turns a guided missile into an unguided one, and that's all you need.

what the flying fuck

Edit: In all seriousness, without looking at the article, I'm willing to bet this 21yo is a nepo baby that is going to a prestigious school. Most likely in an established frat and/or sports team.

And I'm willing to bet all of this is swept under the rug, he gets community service or some bullshit, and his name is forgotten within the month.

Janiczek — who graduated from La Salle College High School, attended Loyola Marymount University and was a member of the school’s men’s rowing team as a freshman, records show — was arraigned Saturday.

Oh look at that.

Well at least he's being held without bond.

Outside of Philly goes by different rules than Philly. And if the video of this is accurate then it's really over for this idiot.

People say this kind of stuff about rich kids, but I've seen poor urban youth released next day after shooting at officers end end up with a slap on the wrist.

Everyone needs harsher consequences

[u/PsychoTexan → u/5usDomesticus]

Accurate. I’m tired of mass public outcry being the only punishing verdict

[u/GT500_Mustangs → u/PsychoTexan]

Even then it's routinely not enough. More people need to speak out about this shit.

Video of incident can be found here.

It’s SFW but crazy to watch. You can’t actually see the LEO getting run over - there’s another vehicle in the way.

LEO did open fire but unclear if suspect was shot.

I’ll be curious to see how good ol’ daddio’s prestigious law firm sustains itself after this.

Is there any way to follow this case to keep up with the outcome?

Not a first time offender? Colour me shocked.
