1 Peg…2 Peg…3 Peg…Drunk Man Knocks Down Cop on to the Floor?
Davanagere: One Peg…Two Peg…Three Pegs…Floor! is a funny saying about a person who after three pegs hits the floor. But in this incident what happened in Davanagere, is little different from this saying, where the person who was riding his bike totally drunk, and when stopped by the cops, got down from his two-wheeler, assaulted and knocked down the cop on to the road? This is what happens when you go beyond your limit while consuming alcohol. As seen on TV and as per sources, a lawyer, allegedly drunk, assaults two traffic cops who asked him to stop for a breathalyzer test in Davangere. The incident was captured on a smartphone by a passerby and went viral on social media. on cellphones.
The drunk driver was Rudrappa, an advocate who was riding his motorcycle in Davanagere around noontime on Wednesday, 10 October, when traffic cops suspected he was drunk and asked him to stop. An infuriated Rudrappa picked up terracotta objects from the street vendor shops on the side of the road and began assaulting the cops. One of the cops suffered a deep cut on his forehead. The attacker argued with another cop before lunging at him and pushing him to the ground. The worst part seen on the video is that, even while the cops were being attacked by this drunk man, the people watching the act never came to the rescue of the two cops, in stopping the fight. Just ignorant people!
The drunk rider was arrested and taken to the police station, and as per the Superintendent of Police pf Davanagere- Chetan Singh Rathore where he had said that a case has been registered against the accused of assaulting officers on duty and that the police are waiting for his medical report before pressing charges for drunk driving/riding.
And one big benefit for this “Drunk Lawyer” is that, he doesn’t have to shell out big bucks in hiring a lawyer to fight the case in the court because he can fight this case on his own…ha?
