Police dog finds pot, not axe attacker
June 20, 2008 11:44am Article from: AAP
A POLICE dog trying to sniff out an axe attacker overnight was thrown off the scent by an unrelated cannabis operation.
The dog was searching a paddock at Carrum Downs in Melbourne's south for an axe-wielding man who attacked a speed camera operator at 10.35pm (AEST) yesterday when it instead led police to the drug house.
Officers discovered a hydroponic growing set-up in a back room and the garage.
A 60-year-old Carrum Downs man and 37-year-old woman were arrested and charged with cultivating a drug of dependence.
The pair were bailed.
Police will continue searching for the man who attacked the speed camera operator, who suffered only a cut finger.
The 40-year-old Frankston man was sitting in his car when the driver's side window was smashed by a man with an axe.
He was showered with glass and the attacker repeatedly thrust the axe at him before fleeing into a field.

This is so typical of the level of absurd incompetance in law enforcement.
Police stop tracking a psychopath with an axe to make a marijuana arrest, wow, I am at a loss for words.

They ruined a perfectly good crime fighting tool by teaching it to track a harmless plant. So when its crunch time and they are on the heels of a a dangerous, not to mention ARMED, criminal the dog aborts mission because it smelled a LEAF.

So fucked up. God forbid the psycho running around with an axe gets caught, that evil marijuana is FAR more important to get off the streets.

So does this mean we should charge Purdue Pharma, a manufacturer of OxyContin, with the same crime?
I've seen many people dependant on oxy. Yet to meet someone addicted to marijuana.

I think a lot of people are being alarmist about the person they were tracking getting away. I doubt the person they were tracking was particularly dangerous or psychopathic. He was likely just pissed off about having received a speeding ticket.
That is not to say that I think the people who were caught deserved to have been caught. Its unfortunate for them that they were.

Pissed off or not, the man tried, repedidly, to hit another man with an axe. If thats not dangerous, I don't know what is.

Speed cameras don't issue tickets, that psycho smashed in the drivers side window of the car ala straight outta horror movie.

Seriously, did you not read this? The cops let a psycho with an axe get away to effect a marijuana arrest, yay for incompetance.
Oh wait you're right, it was just a guy that smashed in the car window to hand the guy a cupcake in a show of friendship, he totally was not attacking a stranger with an axe like a psycho, nooooooooo, we're being alarmist, do not fear the axe wielding maniac, he is handing out cupcakes.
Dahuh, axe man gimme a cupcake friend
EDIT: I got it now!!!!! The psycho with an axe thought the guy was trapped in his car and smashed the window in and thrust the axe at the victim because he thought the victim was trapped, it was just confusion, ojom is right, the guy was not a psycho with an axe, just a good samaritan

Down here we have stationary speed cameras. Its a camera that is set ontop of the dashboard in a car that is parked on the side of the road with a dude that sits inside. You speed past, it flashes and you earn yourself a ticket.

Isn't that a dashmount RADAR or LIDAR?, or are you talking about a camera with RADAR or the LIDAR unit?

I'm not familiar with either to be honest. From walking past one on the footpath, what i've noticed is a big camera like device sitting on the dash, and attached to the very front bumper of the car is a flash to obviously illuminate the number plate of a speeding car. A week later you get a speeding infringement in the mail.
From what i quickly googled, the dashmount radar is used in a moving vehicle to measure the speed of a car in front of them is it not? The speed cameras in cars here are stationary and parked on the side of the road.

Those foglights are not camera flashers.
The dashmount RADAR or LIDAR is used by cops on the road or while stationary, the motorcycle cops have handheld RADAR or LIDAR guns.

Haha they aren't foglights man, i know what foglights look like, i drive a 4x4. Its a detachable device that is used as the flash. Im in Australia, things must be different here.
EDIT: Best pic i could find. The flash is mounted to the front bumper.

I've never heard of that in the US, our lawyers here would rip those tickets a new ahole, lol officers have to stop the car here to ticket the driver, except those red light cameras that take a pic (from above) and gets a pretty good shot from an oblique angle of the driver, and a seperate shot of the tag, I seriously doubt any police department would use a camera system that is level to the driver at night where you couldn't get a shot of the driver, OH WAIT I'm talking about the same police that let a psycho with an axe go free to arrest a marijuana couple, nevermind

It seems very odd to me that many think that marijuana is a dependence drug. Has there EVER in the history of this plant been one study with irrefutably proven it has dependent tendancies?

Marijuana can not cause dependency, the drug tapers the user off naturally.

if so then its the cops faults for giving a dangerous job to a civilian damn well knowing people will have adverse reactions
im in sydney and didnt know police wanna bes were narcing out other drivers
good for the axeman then if it was on a spot thats running down hill with no homes or whatever so when a car rolls in neutral at 70's clicks without gas and they put a 60 or a 50 sign then yeah axe the cunt
if its at a school zone then arrest that axeman and remember he has rights to a fair trial!
