Cop Shoves, Trips High School Soccer Fans, Parents outraged

[Deberg_1990]

Parents were outraged when a central Texas police officer was filmed behaving more like a high school student this past weekend after the conclusion of a state soccer match in Georgetown.

When the Vandegrift High School Lady Vipers won the UIL soccer state championship on Saturday, excited fans jumped the barricades and rushed the field to congratulate the team, but some were in for an unexpected surprise.
In amateur cell phone footage captured by a student, a uniformed Georgetown officer can be seen sticking his leg out to trip people as they swarm the game’s victors. After tripping one person, the officer, who has not been named, attempts to trip another.
In the video, first reported on by KXAN, the officer can also be seen shoving a couple of ladies, and one person is witnessed walking off the field with a limp.

The officer should have exercised greater discretion, says the student who filmed the event.
“He should’ve used better judgement,” 16-year-old Rohan Gupta told KXAN. “We’re high schoolers just trying to have some fun after our team won.”
In a statement yesterday, Georgetown Police Department said its internal affairs unit would investigate the incident, and that further details would be released later today. At the time of publishing, Georgetown Police have not responded to Infowars’ media request.

Haha...at a soccer game.

One reason I don't laugh at the fat ass cop on the simpsons is because it is too accurate.

every member of Chiefsplanet would have flexed menacingly, causing his shirt to rip itself apart, and then ripped up some of the bleachers bare-handed to pummel him to death along with his entire extended family, before slamming a 24-pack and going home to slay their swedish lingerie model wife with their 24 inch banana

Thankfully no memebers of CP were at the game.

Cops an idiot, but stay in the stands ****tards. It's a ****ing girls soccer game not the BCS National Championship game.

This happened in the next town over from where I live (just outside Austin). The cop was there for security and was supposedly trying to keep the kids safe. I think he did okay with that other than the leg sweep attempt. That was over the line but I did see one interview with a kid who was there who totally understood he was just trying to do his job.

As to why they rushed the field, this is a new school (5 years) and this is the first school state championship of any kind. You know, an historic moment!

I'm sure everyone will remember where they were when the school won that girls' soccer title
