Ride along with Tempe Party Patrol





After about 6 hours on patrol with the Tempe Party Patrol this Friday the 26th, I realized now it isn't worth it AT ALL to drink underage at a party that is starting to get a little loud.  I witnessed these cops issue MIC's and MIP's to at least 20 people.  One party we went to was full of under agers, everyone of them got cited.  One of the kids there was 19 had a gun on him and was arrested because of a warrant for his arrest he had.

The biggest action that happened last night was breaking up the Snow Devils party.  We had 2 runners,  1st - a little 19 year old girl that didn't want to lose her scholarship, she's in jail now - 2nd a guy that decided that he wasn't going to get caught, that didn't work out to well for him, he ended up getting tackled on the Asphalt by 2 members of the Tempe Action Team that resulted in a busted up face and hurt reputation.

Another girl was found passed out in the bathroom who blew a .000 on many different breathalizers - she was unresponsive and was sent to the hospital to find out what the heck was wrong with her - I think it was a ruphee or something.

I found out that just don't lie to cops, they hate that, and they will find out.  If your going to use your brothers information, make sure you know it even after you blow a .107.

what a night....11 - 5 witnessing people walk out of houses in grass skirts and bikinis, glazed over eyes, the smell of puke and weed, bloody faces, girls crying in hand cuffs. 

OHHH and the biggest thing, the cops were great with me carrying around 2 huge cameras. Everyone in hand cuffs was like "Who the hell is the camera man." and "I have rights, I don't want my picture taken" as they were sitting on a sidewalk in public property.  The best one of the night "I have rights and I don't want my picture taken" (cops says) "oh why is that?" Cause its embarrassing and he doesn't have the right to take my picture!" Well don't look like a drunken idiot who just ran from the cops, hahah ooohh great stuff.

Wow the cops seem pretty cool with you filming their arrestees. I wonder why a lot of officer get so bent out of shape when you try and film them doing their job?
