A man who had just been pulled over by police ran backward over a Buffalo Grove squad car Friday morning, apparently in haste to drive off.

Cops: Niles (IL) man backs over squad car after getting ticketed

By Nadia Malik | Daily Herald Staff

A man who had been pulled over and ticketed by police ran backward up and onto a Buffalo Grove squad car Friday morning, apparently in his haste to drive off.

Henry Raskin, 70, of Niles had been pulled over by a Buffalo Grove officer on the 400 block of Dundee Road around 11:30 a.m. Friday for driving 58 mph in a 35 mph zone, Sgt. Scott Kristiansen said.

The officer wrote the ticket and returned to the car, and Raskin got ready to drive away. Except he went flying backward.

"(He) apparently was going to pull away at a high rate of speed, but the only problem was that he was in reverse," Kristiansen said.

He said Raskin was not happy about getting a ticket. He said police are reviewing the squad car videotape to see what Raskin might also be charged with.

Raskin was taken to Northwest Community Hospital in Arlington Heights as a precaution.

Kristiansen said police don't believe Raskin has any medical conditions that could have led to the crash. Raskin's age also didn't seem to play a factor, he said.

The officer, a 20-year veteran of the Buffalo Grove department, was not injured, but his car will be out of service for a while.

"He ended up with the left rear wheel of the car coming through his windshield, about 6 inches from his face," Kristiansen said. "Luckily, he was not injured."

The squad car suffered significant damage to the front end, including the windshield and the hood.

Kristiansen said the police investigation so far shows the officer initiated the traffic stop properly. He said officers are trained to treat every stop as if it isn't a routine procedure so that they are aware when unexpected circumstances like this one take place.

"The officer stopped the car properly and positioned himself properly," he said.

Wow.

If the guy thought the speeding ticket is bad, he really isn't going to like assult and possible attempted murder on an officer.

 

He already was charged and convicted of wreckless driving. Was on the news about the update last week.

 

old people are crazy

 

Haha sweet. I was just in Niles 2 days ago

 

There's a thread in Ramblings that contains the very video of this incident.

 

wow...that's hilarious.

Doesn't everyone drive that fast in that area though? I used to take Dundee to work and people would just be flying!

 

I saw the video on Break yesterday

 

Hahaha.

 

"I thought "R" was for Really be careful pulling out."

 

wow awesome

Here's an article with a picture of what the camry looks like on top of the cruiser

 

x2

but uh nice camber kit

 

 

Glad the officer didn't get hurt... other wise the driver would have gone to prison instead of the precautionary trip to hospital.. The assault and other charges will more likely follow soon!!!

 

Also wonder instead of ramming up agains the front shields and pushing the car back, how come it climbed up on the cruiser... on second thoughts if a cruiser were to ram the camry from behind and the camry brakes then will the cruiser go under

 

Surprised the car got up there, even over the push bars.


Crazy

 

would have been even funnier if he had managed to put it in drive, drive down off the car and leave the scene!

 

^ hell yea. That would of been it.

 

Looks like the initial impact forced the nose of the cruiser down and the bumper if the Camry up. Since the Camry is FWD, it just kept on going!

 

^ I saw the vid on Break, too. That was a crazy-a55 video! I couldn't tell if he did it intentionally or not though.

I was like...you gotta be kidding me!

 

 

 

threads merged

 

camry runs over a crown vic, what would have happened if it was Tundra. Cops need better cars.

 

Srsly, cop is lucky. That could've ended much much worse.

Dude kept stepping on the accelerator like an idiot. Bet his old ass was wondering why he was going down and not ahead.
