I was on 7 mile in Detroit on my way to work. Now I don't know exactly what happened because I simply can not remember. I was hit by a semi-truck, and the first thing I remember is two black gloves grabing me and pulling me out of my car, those gloves were worn by a Detroit Police officer. The officer just happen to be driving down the road and saw a semi parked, cock-eyed on 7 mile and decieded to stop and ticket him for impeading traffic and illegely unloading, when he noticed my car against/under the front of the truck. He instantly jumped out of his vehicle and pryed my car open and pulled me out. I don't remember any of this, I only remember seeing his leather gloves. I was NOT ticketed, although I do not remember the collision and don't know what happened. The officer says that from what he saw, herd from the truck driver, and witnesses, that the truck driver was making a right turn from the left lane, and did not stop first to make sure their was no traffic coming before making his turn without signaling. The truck driver recieved sevral tickets. After a few hours in Trama, here I am at home writing this. I will be thanking the officer in person as soon as I figure out who he is (I was pretty shaken up so I don't remember his name).
And to make it relivent I will say I was OCing my G21, and CC a .22bug. Although this was not out of the ordinary for the officer to see because I was in uniform (security), he was very polite, and only asked if he wanted me to secure my weapons, or if I felt that I was okay to carry. I kept my weapons until my OIC got me home, than off to the ER, than instantly to Trama.
Now the question. What to get this officer. I know many will say it was only his job, and I understand that, but it is Christmas time and I want to get him somthing. So just a card? Maybe a food gift card? Some ammo? What???? Please help!
Prayers are welcome too!
God Bless
