Okay, I got a quick lunch break one for us. Got two body cams for you. Um, both are about well, one for real firefighter. The other one questionable. So, the first one we're starting off with is the firefighter that tried to fight the police. And yeah, we'll see how it goes. If you don't like interruptions, the links will be in the description box. I'm here for the commentary. All right, here we go. >> Is about ready to take on the whole police department. >> Does he know they were coming? I told I was like, "All right." I tried to get a maneuver like I was trying to rationalize with them. >> Yeah. But >> all right. You just want to point them out to us? >> Yeah. >> I think it's the Providence firefighter. He was fine 10 minutes ago. I don't know if he's having a medical emergency, >> but he was I was just having a conversation with him. >> Want to have a seat for me? Want to have a seat? Huh? >> Yeah. I want to have a seat here. Have a seat. Have a seat real quick. >> You got like a cup of water for it. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> I tried I only got to drink. >> Hey. Hey. What's good? >> Hey. What you saying? You been drinking? >> Oh, this man is gone. And he he is an actual firefighter and now he's in a personal space touching body cams. I'm sure I'm guessing the bar called on him, but um yeah, he's gone. And I don't know if his friends tried to help him to get him to leave, but this is not the way. >> The fire the fire department's going to come and check her out. Okay. >> Yeah, we got to walk outside. Okay, >> come on. Come on. Let's go for a walk. >> Let's go. Let's go outside. Come on. >> He just has that drunk stare. He can't even form his words. This is You got to find some other way to cope if that's what you're doing right now. Cuz this this ain't it. We don't want to escort you out in front of everybody. Just walk out. All right. All right. I'm going to ask you one more time. You're going to leave. You're going to get out of here. We got to go. Let's go. Come on. [music] >> Come on. Act like a man up. Falling down drunk. That's embarrassing. You should never get that bad. Come on. Let's go. Everybody watching. Let go. Come on. Let's go. One fight. No reception. Come on. You got to go. You take any medication? I don't drink now. You take on any medication? >> No. No. Stop. Stop. Relax. What do you want to do? Walk them out. >> Come on. 20. Can you start another car, please? Can we sit up against the wall? You think that you sit up against the wall? Stop grabbing. Stop rapping. Watch your best. We're trying to help you. >> Your problems. See, that's what again very annoying about them. These people that drink more than what they should, you try to help them, they get combative. Then all their body weight leans on you. They're just a nuisance. Like whether it's their mouth or literal body weight cuz you're trying to help them and they do everything to work against you. I got stop resisting. I got the other wrong with you. What the [ __ ] is wrong with you? Move those punch me loser. HE'S KICKING OFF. Grab his legs. Grab his legs. Ready? Sorry about your head, boss. >> Providence firefighter punching us in the face. >> And that's crazy. that says Johnston Engine 3. So that's his firefighter people. Maybe not his same town. I don't know what town he's from, but it's crazy. The firefighters had to come get the firefighter for how he was acting in public. >> Yeah. All right, buddy. He'll be on the news tomorrow. >> One, two, three. >> That's going to That's going to hurt when that's on the news. Pushing a cop, right? >> I didn't push a cop. No, you probably like three of us. >> Are you kidding me? >> No, very much not. >> This firefighter was charged with simple assault or battery, resisting and disorderly conduct. He is innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law instead of causing chaos in a bar. This next >> All right, we're not watching this dude. He's He's a different one. He's not a firefighter and we're staying on firefighter for my little quick lunch break. So, all right, we're going on to the next one. This one, it says, "Former firefighter gets arrested pretending to be police." And the comments also believe he's not even an actual former firefighter. They think he's doing some stolen valor stuff for 911. They said a lot of scammers came out to claim they were there for 911 or part of 911 and stuff like that. So, um, the day he's pulled over is actually September 11th, 2025. and um he had some stuff on his car to make people believe he might be police. Uh so yeah, here we go. >> 11th, 2025, police in St. Charles, Illinois, pulled over an odd-looking patrol vehicle for having suspended registration. As the officer walks up to speak with the uniform driver, he quickly realizes the man is pretending to be someone he isn't. >> Morning, Sergeant Jackson, St. Charles PD. How you doing? >> Sir, >> uh, looks like your registration is suspended. >> Really? >> Yeah. Do you have your license from insurance? >> Can I step out? >> Step out? >> Yeah. Just I keep going my wall. >> Okay. >> I'm not going to Abrams. >> Yeah. Okay. >> On the same team. >> Oh, okay. Who do you work for? >> I'm retired out of New York. >> Okay. >> I I come in town for the memorial service. >> Oh, okay. Cool. >> Yeah. >> Who do you work for right now? >> Right now, I'm unemployed. Did they just say expired registration and license as well? So, he's pretending to be police with the little lights that can, you know, if you, you know, just a casual person. You see those lights, you think, you know, the police is telling you get out the way. Unemploy. Well, I ain't going to go on unemployed stuff cuz veterans can be unemployed, stuff like that. But, I it was a lot of questionable stuff. I am actually going to take y'all through some of the comments uh before I'm done with this video. >> Okay. That's my ID. Starting to have a little anxiety, so I apologize. I'm trying to work with you here. There's an issue with my license. >> What's wrong with your license? >> Okay. So, New York State, I'm trying to get my license all cleared up, get it transferred out here. For some reason, there's a snafu out in New York. I'm trying to get New York to clarify. New York State is like horrendous getting information from them. >> Okay. >> Okay. So, I'm trying to work with them to try to see if I can't figure out what's going on with it, why there's a hold on it, etc. Okay. There is another licensed vehicle operator in the vehicle. >> Do you have insurance? >> I do, but I don't have it with me. I have the policy. I just recently moved to from Rockford where that address is to Rock Island. So, I've misplaced the paperwork and I apologize for that. But >> who else is in the vehicle? >> There's in the in the front seat, the in the front passenger seat, his name is gentleman that's in the back seat. His first name is Neither one of them have an operator's license. girl in the back seat right behind me. Her name is She She is operator. >> Okay. >> She does have >> Do you have any kind of credentials uh from when you worked as a fire or what what was your title there? >> I I was just a firefighter. >> Okay. >> What I do have is in uniform in front of the station. >> Nah, not good enough. If you're retired, I just I mean you in uniform in front of the station is all you got? Cuz people be carrying around their little retired credentials and stuff like that. Like they be ready to whip that thing out at a moment's notice. A picture is not enough for me. [laughter] >> And you still shouldn't be uh having these fake lights on your vehicle. >> There's those. >> You don't have >> Not on me. No. >> Okay. >> No. I just come up like I said for the 911 memorial service that St. Charles is having. >> And who's got a license in there? >> The female right behind me. >> Okay. >> All right. Why don't you have the uh seat in the car? Have a seat in the car. >> Does anybody have IDs on them? >> Yeah, it's an old address. >> Okay. All right. Do me a favor. Hang tight. Okay. >> And none of your people have IDs. Y'all are coming down for the 9/11 firefighter memorial thing, right? And nobody else has a valid ID on them in the car. Three, I think it said three other people in the car. M. And you got expired license and stuff and expired plates or whatever. Registration. Nah. [clears throat] >> All right. Come back here. Um, okay. Where did you work at before? You said in New York. >> Yeah. In upstate New York. Yes. >> Okay. Do you have You don't have any kind of proof of that? >> Not on me. No. >> Okay. Why wouldn't you carry that on you? >> Okay. So, it's not just odd to me, it's odd to the people that's also on the force that you're not carrying something to prove that you are a retired firefighter. Okay. Good to know. I left earlier this morning. I left about 4:00 this morning. I was tired. He just wanted to get up here. 911 very important to me. I I was one of the responders at the towers. >> That's the part that got most people in the comments. He said he was one of the responders to the towers to the original 911. >> We assisted that. But this is the closest place I can find to do a memorial service. I don't miss my memorial services every year. >> What department did you work for? >> New hands. >> What's that? >> I go by my apartment. >> Okay. So, if you're no longer employed with them, why are you still wearing a uniform? >> It's a uniform that I purchased myself. It was a volunteer tomorrow. >> So, you purchased a >> Yes, >> the uniform. >> Yeah. I I don't >> These are all red flags of stolen Valor people. They purchased the stuff to put it together so it looks like a real uniform, but usually, and I know a actual firefighter might be able to point out a few things, but usually they'll have the patches on the wrong side. Um, their name tag might be on the wrong uh side of their chest. It's just little things cuz it's like they never actually did it, so they just try to do what they think they're seeing. And a lot of stolen valid people because they try to mimic what they see in video and pictures, they're accidentally mirroring the side that the stuff is actually supposed to go on. So that's one of the ways that some people can tell. But yeah, >> where on September 11th, go to the service, have the service, go to all. >> You see how this is kind of a little bit weird to me. >> I I do. >> Okay. >> That's why that's why I was trying to be honest with you up front. I showed you the pictures and all that stuff. I'm just trying to step over here. >> Um, so I guess uh so you never been in any kind of trouble or anything besides a license or anything like that? >> Okay. You never been arrested or anything? >> I had a violation order protection. There was no domestic, but it was a violation order protection, but I didn't realize I walked past my ex-wife's house. She had filed for an uh emergency order protection. Of course, you know how that works. Emergency order protection. I'm not notified. They agreed to that. Um, I got served. I was on my way back from a hospital. I was heading back home. I didn't realize just simply walking past her house was violated. >> Where was this at? No. >> This is in Yes. This is up. >> And that's the only time you've ever been arrested. Okay. Never been arrested in New York. >> I I had charges back in New York State. Oh, Christ. When was that? 2010. >> Okay. So, when I ask you the question, you ever been arrested? And then you tell me no or only in Illinois. And then I say New York. Then you say, "Oh, yeah, but what about Yeah, I guess I did New York." >> I understand. >> It's not adding up, man. So, I need you to be honest. >> Okay. >> You ever been arrested in New York? >> New York? >> Tell me why. >> Okay. It was for a grand, it's called grand lararseny. Let a guy borrow my computer. He used my computer. He downloaded some checks. I didn't know anything about it. I got picked up under New York state law. Because it was my computer. I must have had knowledge. >> So, they picked me up. I served my time. Everything was completely done. I was actually removed from war early, so they never caused any problems. I went to Lur, I went home, and that was it. >> And that's the only That's it. No other states. >> New Hampshire years ago. >> Dang. Every time they ask him, another incident comes out. So, [clears throat] man, and you got the audacity to be riding dirty with expired things. Then, like Mr. Earstar said, and he's a DV person. You was on parole. Every time they ask you, it's a new state with a new arrest going on. All right. Nahm [clears throat] >> years ago of this department. I I purchased it through golf. >> So So if I call them right now, they're going to say they know who you are. >> Yeah. >> And you used to work there. >> I was a volunteer firefighter for them. Yes. >> Okay. When? >> Give me a minute. I'll tell you the years. It was 2018 to April or so. >> It's a lot of volunteer firefighter things going on. Where is the employment to where you could have been a retired firefighter? You know, every time he name a place, they like, "Can we verify with them? Can we verify with them?" Well, I was a volunteer firefighter there. Where did you retire from as a firefighter? The W2s. Where are those? >> I was 19. >> And why did you not Why do you not work there anymore? >> I moved out to Wisconsin. I'll go ahead and give them a call and you hang out here. >> Uh, just not right now. Give me a second. >> I was going to look up the number. >> They'll find it. Google it or something. I just trying to show you guys that I'm trying to assist. I don't want to say the words, but I'm not going to >> You guys from out that way? >> You guys from out that way? >> I am. >> You are. >> They're all all three of them from the cities. >> Okay. >> We just came out this morning from Rock Island. Crazy. Rock Island. Well, a lot of communities. We were talking about that this morning. A lot of communities aren't doing services anymore. >> Yeah. That's a shame. >> That's ours this morning. They don't got any like retired commission card or anything like that? >> No, cuz we have a career department, which is a volunteer department. >> Oh, did they know that it was a volunteer department or No, I mentioned it. >> Okay. No, you mixed up a lot of stories cuz when you first started before you thought they would verify it, you said you retired. Like you a career firefighter that retired. Then when they asked you, okay, what about this state? Oh, I volunteered there. What about this state? Oh, this patch on my shoulder. I volunteered there. So, no, they probably are still under the impression, you know, they don't believe you, but they're trying to check to see if you are a retired firefighter from somewhere, like you actually received an income as a firefighter. He is all over the place. >> All right. Yeah, let me just double check. >> Just before I left, how our department was set up is like the chief and captain and lieutenants are loaded in within the department. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> So you guys like self vote those? >> Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So he got voted in as one of the deputy chiefs. Okay. So he can verify. Yeah. >> We'll see what they come up. Just >> let you know that I try to give you guys much I appreciate to help. All righty. Unfortunately, here in St. Charles, you are suspended. So, we're going to have to take you in. Okay. Do me a favor and turn around. Put your hands behind your back. >> Wow. Yeah. So, no one has a valid ID. I was almost going to say for him, he might have had a valid license, but no, he has a suspended license. And he already said, well, he said three of the people didn't have a good license. Then he he said the woman in there does have a operator license, as he put it. But I don't I don't believe anybody does at this point. There's no way. Why wouldn't she be driving? And you have the audacity [laughter] to put on lights to try to pull people over to the side to get out of your way. You deserve all of this. And I still think that um he's I do believe he's lying about 911, let alone being a firefighter at all. >> First suspended. What's that? >> What happens from here? Uh we're going to go back and give you a court date and a ticket and then uh we'll get you released. Okay. >> Can handle this. >> You got anything in the car that you need? >> Is there anything illegal in the car? >> No, there's nothing illegal. No. >> Okay. Is there anything that you need out of there? >> I know you got your wallet. >> No, I don't believe so. I I believe I got everything. >> He's going to uh Dom's going to take them. So, >> there's a waiting area in this uh gas station. >> You're going to have to deliver the vehicle. What's it going to what's it going to take to get the vehicle back? >> Uh I say, man, I'm trying. >> Yeah. No, I know. Well, I know, but I when I when I ask you about if you ever been arrested, kind of bullshitting me a little bit, right? Right. I mean, we could both >> It wasn't intended, but Yeah. I I understand. >> When I ask you if you've been arrested, you only give me the Illinois stuff. You know, I know. I can look it up. You know that. So, there's no sense of doing that, right? >> That's why I stepped out. You know, it's like this. I'm I'm trying to >> I understand. And honestly, yeah. I'm trying to give you anxiety a lot of Yeah. a lot of lot of benefit, too. your car. These guys are out and they're going to go get it. >> It's just you had you had a chance to be honest with me, you know, and you >> you weren't. So, >> we're going to wait. >> Wasn't my intent. >> Okay. Well, I appreciate you >> like cuz I'm trying to >> Yep. Little scared. >> You're trying to pretend that you were coming off as helpful and forthcoming with information, but what you were doing was throwing out a lot of red herrings, hoping they didn't ask the right questions to really fill you out. You didn't want them to run your license for sure. You wanted them to believe you were a retired career firefighter. You want people to believe even now you going to go scam somebody talking about you was a responder at 911. >> We ain't got a whole lot of money. So trying to keep the cost down as best we can. I mean are we looking at just a tofi or >> So there will be a tophe. It depends on So I'm not I'm not going to be I'm not the arresting officer. I'm not the one who stopped you. It'll ultimately be up to him. um if it's impounded for driving on a suspended license without insurance. If that is the case, then it's a $500 administrative fee from the city before the toll fee. I'm not the one who's who's in charge of making that decision. So, that'll be up to the officer uh who's who's arrested. Um >> but yeah, that's what that's what you'd be looking at. And then >> yeah, he's he's going to meet you he's going to meet you back at the station to do the paperwork. >> That's what I'm trying to avoid. But I understand it to code. >> As I say, we have to unfortunately it's just one of those things driving on the driving on the roadway without insurance and all that. >> I didn't realize it was, you know, the registration was suspended. Otherwise, we never would have brought that. Female is there. She has her own vehicle and we were discussing about maybe bringing hers. It was smaller. It's >> probably a little bit better on gas and it was multiple reason we could have brought hers, but mine's got a little bit more room. >> Challenge coins. I say 911 was >> mind just having a seat for me, sir? >> Yeah, sir. >> Yeah. I don't want you to think I'm trying to give you hassle. >> I'll take no problem. No, you being reasonable. >> You're not hassling, but you trying to hustle. >> I will be released today. >> Yeah. So, he's going to take we're going to take you back to the station. Just got to do a couple paperworks that uh paperwork and a couple tickets and then you'll be you'll be released from the station. >> They're going to be up here. >> Yeah. Same. So, >> I'm not trying to delay. I'm just trying to figure out cuz I don't want to get separated from them, you know? >> No. And and I'll let them know where the police station is. Um that way they can meet you there and you'll be able to make phone calls from there, too. Um you can give them a call or whatever. Let them know whatever if you want to meet them somewhere else or something like that. >> Yeah, we got your phone. You'll be able to look at it to get the numbers off of it. So, yeah, >> I was going to say >> I'll let them know that you'll give them a call. Okay. >> Or whatever. All right. Yeah. I want you to think I was trying to delay getting in the car and >> No, no, no, no, no. You're fine. You're fine. I appreciate it. The suspect was charged with impersonating an officer, possession of stolen property, driving with a suspended license, and driving without insurance. If you >> Okay, that makes sense because I was like, ARE WE GOING TO GO BACK to the part where he was over there trying to impersonate somebody? So, they did. Let's look at these comments real fast. Um, yeah, I I suspect some type of substances are involved as well. They definitely scamming. Okay, we got somebody said, "A professional BSER. he's running a con at these 911 memorials. That's where my thoughts were with the people in the comments that are saying that. Um, somebody said, "My grandson did the exact same thing. He was a firefighter one day and a police officer the next. My grandson is four years old." Um, notice how they're always trying trying to be honest instead of just being honest. This guy is 100% operating some sort of donation scam. Yes, that's that's where I am with it. They somebody said, "I live nine blocks from the World Trade Center on 911 and these guys started coming out of the woodworks years ago, scamming anyone they can out of donations by just wearing a generic uniform. Pure garbage." And I agree. And I'm going to have to end it here because this is just the lunch break. So hopefully y'all enjoyed those short body cams and I will see you later. All right, bye.
