I know Austin is run by Dems, but seeing this kind of police response and the swift response by their PD is very nice to see.

Kudos to them.

How dare Austin liberal PD arrest a black man. Racist cops should be fired.

It's typically not the LEOs that are the problem. It's the DA who will plea that down to misdemeanor disturbing the peace and the judges who will accept those pleas.

Fair. APD can't control that.

Officers on the beat deserve credit.

I thought same. Too easy. Usually when they do a drive by punch, they haul ass and or strut out out like they badass for doing a blindside. Guy did neither, like he was waiting on cops.

Where's that cruiser come from? No one even called anything in, based on how well you can hear everyone talking it'd be loud and clear.

Maybe was an earlier altercation that had been brewing and everyone knew something was gonna go down, but in that case seems dumb to wait around and have someone get sucker punched.

Patrons on 6th Street sure have changed in the last 20+ years. And that guy knew what postion to take when he heard the sirens.

Considering that she said "and I arrested you last night too cause you run your mouth", they were shadowing these two guys because they had reasonable suspicion to know something like this would happen. Wasn't their first run in with the cops

Not the first time that guy has been arrested - he knew the routine. Props to him though for taking it like a man and not resisting.

Yep. I know a guy who has been an APD officer for over 20 years. Those are good men and women and they hate city and county leadership. Because of leftists, APD has about the same number of officers they did when he started despite a huge population growth.

The outfit on the girl in black, why even wear a dress when it rides up above your panties?

Who cares? Dirty 6th is a dangerous area that once was a tradition in Texas. Avoid the area.

Sounds like an easy lawsuit against the city for allowing that criminal to attack innocent bystanders.

This isn't minority report. They don't have precogs and arrest before crime has occurred.

I agree and they shouldnt be on the street to commit more crimes. However, finding a city liable for their terrible judges is a long way away. Fortunately, these officers are doing their job and were able to prevent it from getting worse

Because he knows the court system/ judge will not do anything to him. Class C misdemeanor and a 50$ fine probably which he can plead no contest to…

There are fights every night in DT Austin and the police barely do **** to stop it. Most of the time they just spray pepper spray and tell everyone to go home. Take a stroll down this Twitter page.

So correct. And if the victim of a crime or a friend or family member of a crime victim should decide to retaliate via vigilante justice, I hope he or she gives due consideration to not only the perpetrator but also the DA and judge that were too lenient.

The best is the Torta fight with the girl wearing the ankle monitor. A wig ends up on the asphalt and a cop gives it a good shot of pepper spray as he walks past.

Had a friend at A&M that had a friend from his hometown there. His aim when he went out on the weekend was to get in a fight. He'd openly talk about it before going out.

Total cowards, ganging up with numbers, and head stomping a defenseless person on the ground.

6th in the 80's and 90's was top notch.
Our society is really circling the drain.
It's really sad. There is no concept of the greater good or social contract anymore.
I'm not saying 6th street was Pleasantville but people on general weren't as completely self absorbed as they are now….in every aspect of society.
