Geee, Officer needle deck. Did that result in the truck being moved to a place of your liking and under your almighty power and authority ?
You can’t seriously expect a very prompt much less efficient response should you ever require help from this fire
I understand every girlfriend you ever and your sadly disappointed wife have confirmed what a small man you really are.
Life sure dealt you the short end of the stick.
You load cops up with steroids, and you’ll have an occasional unfortunate incident. Nothing in the update about any cops being disciplined or any apologies to the firefighter (or even dismissal of charges.
If I was the fire chief, I’d tell the state patrol that they could work any highway accidents on their own.
Where’s the holster-sniffers here on FR to point out how the cop is right, hmmm?
I think the next time CHP requested assistance, I’d send along a couple of city cops with “keep the peace” instructions.

I suspect this is what the Firefighter was referring to. And if the CHP Trooper was neither the Incident Commander nor part of the incident's command structure, he had absolutely no authority to order moving the fire truck.
If the CHP Trooper did not have that authority, then his order was illegal. If his order was illegal, then his detention of the Firefighter was false arrest.
I'm sure there is a great deal of CYA scrambling going on right now with unofficial inter-agency negotiations on how to whitewash this cock-up.
Obviously reverse racism. Cop looks to be of Mexican decent arresting a white boy and this would be considered payback.
I see a potential beer summit.
