A disturbing video has appeared on some social media platforms in which a biker appeared to have been knocked down by a police patrol car in the city of Milwaukee, in the US state of Wisconsin.
According to the Free Though Project, the horrible incident occurred during a large gathering of bikers in the city in which the police car collided with one of the bikers. The subsequent collision seen in the video sent the biker crashing down the roadside.
After the crash, an African-American biker is seen exchanging heated words with the police officer who committed the act, and his colleagues are seen trying to move him away from the officer. The police officer appeared calm throughout the exchange. The collision and the aftermath were both caught on camera.
According to the account of the story, narrated by the Milwaukee Police Department (MPD), the MPD received reports that many bikers were driving erratically in the city, causing an unpleasant situation and subsequent traffic jam.
The MPD said it therefore dispatched officers to the scene to restore law and order. The officers then decided to escort the bikers from the downtown area of the city to their destination.
The police said one biker attempted to pass their officer and the officer accidentally collided with the biker while conducting his dangerous maneuvers.
But the bikers dispute this account given by the police. Those [bikers] who witnessed the incident and recorded it said the officer intentionally ran down their colleague. Even in the video, the officer can be seen swerving dangerously with his car from left to right, crossing multiple lanes of the road.
“We were coming from downtown, and you got the police who wanted to escort us out of downtown. What the supervisor was doing, he was driving erratically across the freeway so he just, he swerved like this, trying to hit somebody. So as Cuffy was going past, he just turned and hit Cuffy off his bike,” one biker said, identifying the biker that was knocked over by the officer as “Cuffy.”
The bikers said that after the collision, they stopped and confronted the officer to show their anger about what he had recklessly done and this resulted in a heated exchange between them and the officer, however nothing nasty happened thereafter.
The only bad news, according to the biker group, was that the biker’s passenger was injured in the crash and had to be immediately taken to the hospital with unknown injuries.
The MPD was not able to confirm whether the officer will be investigated for what he had done despite the available video evidence.

SHOOT the Cop hell learn something ….
The cop is behaving like he’s entitled to hurt people.
That said, friends living in Milwaukee are feeling intimidated and stressed out by the bikers who are making so much noise and putting out such bad energy it appears as if they intend to incite violence. The bikers are compelling people whose lives matter to call the police to keep the peace because the biker gangs are behaving like teenage dimwits.
Bikers…
Who cares about that kind of scum tbh.
Who do not feel like bumping your car into a biker when you see one haha.
Losers of society the kind who wear westes or play smart. Those who are normal nice people who just like to risk their life for a drive on a bike….peace be with them and a lot of luck.
Bikers are great people. Cops are great people. So why judge PEOPLE by the few or many who are asshats/stupid? At least this group of riders in the footage didn’t jump the cop and beat his ass unlike the incident in NY. You know, the incident where the guy in an SUV RAN OVER a rider and then tried to runaway from a group of riders that were mostly on sport bikes? He wasn’t cop. But, he got his ass beat for pulling some stupid shit. E.G. Hit and Run.
I thought pigs have PTs to complete 8/ That fat peace of shit hit that biker intentionally.
