"Run Ohio #######" "Black Ford Ranger"
Copy that 275, hold
Lights, what the... ...
I dont remember what dispatch said next.
Dont remember much at all, saw the cam footage and listened to the audio.
When I saw the cam footage from the car I just could not understand how one can live thru that.
I dont remember doing what I did on cam, I jumped in the air, hit the hood and quite like a bug than went splat on your windshield, I took the brunt of his windshield.
Rolled over the top of the car and bounced along for a bit.
Driver kept going.
I think jumping saved me.
I had the strangest dreams while i was knocked out, I awoke about the fifth day and was very confused.
"Deb?"
Stay still Howie, try to rest.
"What in the hell happened?"
Well the rest is history.
Subject was nailed an hour later bragging to his friends about hitting a deer.
When his buddies saw the blood and the torn fabric on the wiper blades, they played it off cool, and called the SD.
He gave up without incident, pretty much confessed to it, he was very very drunk and he claimed my "purdy" lightbar drew him over on the shoulder.
I was standing to the rear and to the left of this cars rear bumper when he hit me.
As for injurys, dont ask it friggin hurts!
The biggest problem is I need back surgery, spinal fusion.
A little memory loss, huh? what? oh! back to the topic.
Washing machines right? lol J/K
I had a small punturce wound in my belly, that sucked.
I have a slight fracture in my neck area, lucky guy on that one.
4 broke ribs two broke fingers and a few other minor fractures.
Did I mention Road rash? Heh, I resemble beef jerky.
I think the funniest thing was when my wifey brought me my Surefire E1 in.
They had me under constant watch which I guess that is because alot of people just dont like me?:rock:
And the hospital copper was like Damn bro! That light is slick! He had to Spend some quality time with it, what he did not know is that if was able to I would have been kicking his @ss and getting my light back. My toy!
My wife was just amazing during this thing, she's my wifey and my best friend.
Next time you see someone on the shoulder, give em room.
God bless everyone of you.
