Sorry folks, this didn't look paywalled for me when I posted it.

This article is utterly devoid of details. I hope to hear more about this soon.
Edit: apparently I did not read the whole thing. I stopped when I got to this:
"To continue reading, log in or subscribe.”
Cop ran red light, swerved across two lane and hit the gay bar. Then they went after the owner and trumped up an assault charge when witnesses say there was no assault. Oh and first they tried to say they were swerving to miss a dog, then to miss a parked car.
I think that's about the jist of it.
Do you mean ‘the jism of it’?
Apparently I meant Gist.
I was just making a funny re: gay bar.
The jizz of it?
Why was that necessary?
I read another article with more detail, unfortunately it was a police statement, so you know for a fact it's mostly lies.
They claim he attacked the cops when they crashed through his business, which I don't buy for a second. More likely he got rightly pissed, bitched out the cops and they didn't like being yelled at and arrested him.
All of that is in the original article, I'm not sure what you guys are seeing.
Edit: Apparently it's paywalled for some people? No idea why it's not for me.
Article says video shows the owner didn't strike the officer.
There's a lot of detail there... Did you go all the way down? Anyway, that's messed up!
... Did you just stop at the title?
There's like 25 paragraphs detailing the whole situation. Only thing really missing is the footage NYT supposedly saw.

No there isn't. There is only a whiny message bitching at me to turn off private browsing mode and subscribe. An article that refuses to display doesn't count as an article.
Wasn't for me, but:
The article is paywalled.
Huh, wasn't for me, but
NYTSeattle Times (fooled by the damn font) so...
