im on my way to the hospital yesterday morning. my grandma is recuperating from a mild heart attack she had monday morning. i had just gotten off from work, was exhausted, & fighting my sleep as i drove the 7 miles to the hospital. i actually only made it a mile & a half when i rode up on some shit.
as i sat at the light on florida ave at nj ave, i saw this car in front of me jerking & then change lanes & come to an abrupt stop at the light in front of me. im looking into the passenger compartment of the car & see the driver hitting the dash really hard, several times. looks to me like hes pissed because he is having car trouble. then i see the passenger hitting the dash in the same fashion. the driver looks at the passenger, raises his right hand, makes a fist & punches the shit out of the passenger. then i see the driver is a male & the passenger a female. he grabs her head with both hands, snatches it into his lap & opens a can of whoop ass on her. she pops back up as the light changes to green & the driver speeds away.
i am actually on the cell talking to my sister when i tell her to hold on; i drop the phone, grab the radio & press the emergency alert button. this gives me uninterrupted airtime to transmit my emergency. i tell the dispatcher what i have, the direction were going, & the tag number of the car. there is noone to assist me, everyone is tied up or is too lazy to want to come help. as i drive into the 5th district from the 3rd district, i change channels & notify this dispatcher of what i have. i give my direction of travel & the car info again. as i do this, i can see him kicking her ass as he drives.
eventually, he pulls the car to the curb in the unit block of ri ave nw. i drive past him & pull over. he has no idea i am there, he was determined to beat the shit out of her as he sat there in the car. i tell the dispatcher where we are, she tells me that assistance is coming, but i hear no sirens. i cant let him beat her like that so i get out of my car, pull my pistol, put my badge around my neck facing behind me so i dont get shot from the back by some trigger happy rookie, & walk to the car. i know this shit would have looked crazy to the public cuz i have on jeans, black cowboy boots, a black tee shirt, & a denim jacket. its windy, so my dreads are flying all over the place & im walking in the middle of the street in rush hour traffic with a pistol in my hand.
as i walk to the car, i still see him giving it to her good & rough. then he sees me & the barrel of the glock. his hands go up quickly. i tell the girl to get out on her side & order him to put the keys on top of the car. still no assistance. im all alone. i cant leave him in the car cuz i dont know if he has any weapons in it. so i tell him in no uncertain terms that he is to get out of the car, do as i say, & he will remain in good health. i take him to his knees at the rear of his car, fingers locked on his head & im searching him for weapons. he says he has a box cutter in his pocket. he didnt, it was in the car next to his seat. he dropped it.
finally i hear sirens. the officer gets on the scene & we cuff the guy. he gets locked up for domestic assault, & she gets treated by the ambulance crew that responded. the case was presented to the us attorney this morning & all charges against him were dropped. the female complainant was not answering her phone, & he had no prior arrests.
i hope she doesnt end up dead for not following thru. if hell beat her in the car, in the middle of rush hour, what will he do in the privacy of their home?
