Troopers ambushed

[system]

I still would like to know how the trooper got hooked to the ATV. Not to mention if he got dragged over a mile at speeds of 30+ he would definitely have some tell tale signs of it on his clothing/body.

As far as doing math to figure out how fast the kid was going that would only give you an average speed. Saying he traveled this far in this time frame means shit. He could have been doing 10 then speed up to 40, not to mention dragging a person who weighs 200lbs can really slow down a machine that weighs 500lbs.

It was a larger sized ATV. Used for trailoring, and hauling. The trooper wasn’t even 200 lbs. It wouldn’t have slowed it down that much.

And an average speed of 20 mph, still means he was going faster than that…at some point.

I don’t see why you and 90% of WNY is contesting this. If this police officer was your dad/brother/uncle…you’d be glad he did what he did.
