Still my favorite Kory Watkins story:

A Cop Watcher Was Almost Killed by a Drunk Driver After Surveilling a DWI Checkpoint

sorry for the lengthy block quote, but it needs to be shared this much:

In Watkins own words (via Facebook):

“So last night on my way home from cop watching a drunk driver was going around 100 mph and smashed into the back of me, I could not control the car , I went sideways, then flipped 3 times, hit a cement piller to stop my roll and put me in a ditch on The side of 287. I was 2 miles always from being home. I am incredible lucky to be breathing. I can’t tell you how lucky I am to be alive.”

The post, which has since be deleted, also included this:

“I see a few sick I individuals taken time to think this is a joke or it’s funny that the cops helped me, Let me say this. I am happy the police showed up to catch him but I’m trying to figure out where they helped me any….. Was it the part where they showed up 15 minutes after the crime or was it when they wrote me a 300$ ticket after my car was totaled ? Any sick fuck that thinks this is the time to crack irony jokes can go the he’ll away. I’m lucky to be alive. There are some sick people that try to take a situation and spin it to fit their beliefs when they don’t know crap. Some sick people …. Mother Fucker almost dies and people are joking about it. Disgusting.”
