Oh! I agree......I just had to insert there are women fit to do the job. You know all that woman power and all! Women and men in the USA ought to be doing martial arts and such, crazy to be an unfit police officer.
I would like to know why when the two ladies have him on the ground he is not cuffed in the first 30 seconds. Do they not have handcuffs? Get your knees in the back and on the head then the cuffs.
Extremely embarrassing. No cooperation, retreating 100 metres when the guy starts to hit rocks at the van, and not any attempt to seize him even when he calmly walks away.
I'm all for women being cops, but this is just humiliating for the Swedish police.
I would choose to think there will be some high level discussions about protocol and why they seemed incapable of subduing the individual.
After the one officer received an uppercut to her chin during the "scrum" beside the car they all seemed to lose investment in any "efficient" outcome.
My hope is perhaps there's some backstory we're not getting here that will become public in days to come as the digging for more info will be 'fast and furious'.
Do cops in sweden carry no weapons whatsoever? Are they even trained??? i guess this is what happens when there's almost zero crime in your society. What a world to live in.

They are armed at all times, they hit him with batons a few times, and I'm pretty sure he was maced.
I'm under the impression this guy was on PCP or something, and really had nothing to do with the gender of the officers.

I hope that too. Ok, I get it, a furious individual might get almost supernatural powers and can be very difficult to tackle down even by male cops, but the officers just seem to put their hands in the air and give up. Here just 150 km east of the Swedish borders cops NEVER give up or let the criminal think he's winning. In any case, Finnish cops shoot around 12 bullets a year, and have killed 6 persons in 16 years, so I'm not advocating for splatter either. But this incident was only embarrassing for the Swedish police.
Then don't hire them to fulfill some progressive quota. If you can't do the job, you shouldn't HAVE the job.
Uh huh. So you know the hiring practices of Sweden now? Gotta love the internet where everyone claims to know something about everything.
