I just had an unpleasant run in with the Leominster Ma. PD. I was crossing an intersection, when a car (audi)pulled out making a left turn, by the time I slowed down, I was fairly close to the vehicle making the left, he was now driving down the oncoming traffic lane because he jumped out in front of me. I shot the individuals a glare but no other gestures or horn were given. I continued a 1/4 mile down and pulled over to park on the street. (requesting an inspection at the town hall). Here comes the Audi barreling down the street and pulls up next to me as I'm crossing the road. Driver starts yelling at me and flashes his badge, I tell him I don't care who he was not to drive like an asshole. This happens to be in front of the local PD. He wants to see my ID and I tell him no, am I under arrest or what have I done? He then tells me to go inside the PD, again I ask him If I'm under arrest, he says I will be if i don't comply. Apparently this is his PD, the OOD or chief comes out and listens to our arguments for a few, then takes the driver(cop) and the passenger(believe he was a cop also) into the back room. They come out a few minutes later and tell me to come back. I do, they ask for my license and again I ask if I'm being ticketed or arrested they say no but it is now a traffic stop and I am required. Whatever, I need to get back to work and have nothing to hide. I give them my ID and they run it and let me go. This cop does a rolling stop, I mean mug him and all this ensues. Traffic stop in his personal Audi? He obviously turned around to pursue me for an altercation and shows his badge like it's his get free card. Was any of this legit or did I just run into one of those types of cops/departments.
