New York State Trooper Ron Ensminger, who was run over by a vehicle in June during a protest, has filed a Notice of Claim against the City of Buffalo, citing that a violation of policies and procedures led to his injuries on June 1st.
Trooper Ensminger suffered a broken pelvis and ribs after a vehicle driven by Deyanna Davis, and has been unable to return to work since the incident. Additionally Trooper Ensminger will need considerably more medical treatment and his overall recovery is still unknown. Two other officers were struck as well but suffered only minor injuries.
Davis was charged with aggravated assault upon a police officer, assault in the second degree, criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree and criminal possession of stolen property in the fourth degree. She has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
Good for you, Trooper Ensminger, and prayers that you recover completely!!
I am appalled at the way Law Enforcers and Protectors of our communities and lives are being treated!! Everyday they leave for work, they are risking their lives to keep us safe!!
Why aren’t these brave men and women, who have been run over, shot at, threatened, etc., topping the News?! To see how they are spoken to and having bricks and other objects thrown at them, during the protests, and yet they are not allowed to do anything about it!! Now THAT takes a LOT of patients!! No way I could do that!! BLUE LIVES MATTER!
However, I am sickened with the few Officers that are power hungry (I call them Barney Fifes!), trigger happy and use excessive force unnecessarily…AND the other cops that standby and watch!!! Terrible!! And WHY don’t they shoot for the legs – NOT THEIR bodies??
More training is needed!
Awwww poor baby you put yourself in that position. U volunteered to go there and try be a big shot. Now you wanna sue the city because of what? None of you followed procedures everyday you guys acted was against protocol!!! But you let white people shoot people and offer drinks
Ikr, I’m not sorry but ALL of my compassion for “SOME” is GONE. I have a “DON’T” give a damn attitude, NOT good for “SOME” of them!
WOW too bad families of MURDERED victims of law enforcement can’t sue the individuals involved. The City of Buffalo isn’t responsible for his energies, I’m sorry he’s unable to return to work but there’re people who aren’t able to see their loved ones, ever. Get well & be happy you’re still alive.
