were they off duty, or undercover, or both? I can understand if they were trying to infiltrate the group to get more information on organized crime or illegal activity. and it's not like they knew they would be assaulting someone that day. what if some of the cops stayed back to help the injured one? they would have not participated in or witnessed the assault at all.
I get that they might want to preserve their undercover identity, but a man could have died in front of his family. They should have intervened. A man's life is more important than a drug bust. The police could always plant another undercover officer later.
apparently there were 6 cops, and there was a story about 2 active duty NYPD cops doing nothing while a man got his face cut in a subway station a few months back http://www.sott.net/article/264398-...hed-while-trying-to-stop-subway-serial-killer
There were more than 5 cops part of the mob and a few of them stood by and watched the beating. One of them was off duty undercover but was not investigating the biker group. He didn't even have to reveal his cover, he could have just said "hey, stop". The truth seems to be that the cops are friendly with the members of the mob and probably even enabled them to chase the SUV down. Those cops are in deep ****, and the city is just about praying that Alex won't sue the NYPD for being accessories to the assault.
It depends how deep he's infiltrated them. You'd be surprised how many undercovers had to look the other way to prevent blowing the case. It's not uncommon to for them to put a drug bust over a mans life. Not exactly easy to plant another undercover. Takes years for them to gain trust. And Of course, all my knowledge comes from gangster movies. And I honestly don't know if these bikers some major underground crime ring that needs undercovers. Have a feeling these were off duty officers.
it would be helpful if the police that were present would be able to identify more of the bikers involved. and apparently these motorcycle groups do need to be investigated. they seem to think they are above the law.
Hopefully police will start cracking down on bike mobs like this. Please arrest everyone in critical mass. Thanks.

These subhuman trash should all locked up in jail for their lifttime. These animals are just a waste of air. Sergio Consuegra is a very brave man.
The person that grabbed the mother (in front of child) whom wasn't even driving needs to be put in jail for a long time.
There was a point where he drove right past an exit. If they're getting ahead of him, which some were, you can lose them by exiting quickly. I wasn't saying he should start trying to cut corners and speed around streets. You don't he would have been safer inside a business? I doubt he gets mobbed like that inside a business. He stopped in the middle of street that offered no protection between his family and the bikers besides a thin sheet of glass. I get he was probably panicking, but I personally would have been thinking of going somewhere with a lot of people where i could put a wall or door between those guys and my family.
What has happened to her husband is tragic. But she should have added the scumbag friends of her husband need to pay for what they did too. Actually those scumbags should be 99% responsible for it.
If he takes an exit he runs the risk of running into a red light, which was exactly what happened. Personally, I would have stayed on the highway and just mowed down any moronic bikers that were dumb enough to try to get in front of me while calling 911 and hoping the police sends a patrol car or two my way. At the end of the day you're practically driving a tank relative to what the bikers are riding on, might as well utilize it for self defense.
Anyone see that video where they open his door on the highway? Where did that come from? I didn't see that in the original video and it doesnt seem to be when the Rover stopped and then ran them over. Was that before? Driving 60-70 mph on a highway with slashed tires?? Again, thinking my family's safety, that's not a smart thing to do. You're not going to win a that battle against that many bikers. He got lucky he didn't lose control, but I wouldn't risk that.
Yah but the alternative was a near fatal beating and stabbing. Honestly in that situation, unless you are james bond,,no way in hell youd be thinking straight with that many crazy bikers threatening you and your family
