Bystander gets beat-up then held hostage at street race
This happen to some guy over in Orlando, (not me/thank God)
I Was Held Hostage Street Racing @ Its Worst!!! this saturday night, i got a call my from my freind to bring him a jack to fix his car and to come out to watch some races. i decided against better judgement and pulled up to the street races to park to meet 2 of my friends As i was trying to park my truck Some drunk ass guy setting the cars off, didn't look, and dropped his hands while i was in the road. a racing dodge neon srt 4 smashed into my dodge ram 2500 diesel going very fast. i was parking and trying to get in a tight spot. Then a group of Puerto ricans told me it was my fault for the street racing srt-4 being wrecked and beat me to a pulp till i was bleeding everywhere, and i remember a girl jumping on top of me stopping them from beating me up. I cant remember anything until I woke up in my truck with someone i didn't know driving it telling me that "dont do anything stupid because they WILL kill you and your family" because they have your information. And that It was his brothers Car who hit my truck. and Id better pay for it and not pull any **** or they will kill me. With one car following from the back they took me to the HESS Gas Station in Disney World, and made me clean up where i mouthed to the cashier to call 911. they did and the cop came, but never came close enough for me to be safe to run over to him and it was to early to get the driver of the neon and the guys holding me hostage. i kept calling 911 from my cell phone in my back pocket and managed to whisper"hostage" to the 911 operator while they were talking in spanish from car to car. after that i kept the phone in my pocket so the 911 could listen to everything. they were going to take me somewhere to make sure i wouldn't leave till i payed for the neon and or they got money or collaterall from me, and i dont know how bad they were gonna beat me up. they told me "call your friend bro because after we meet you aint driving your truck home and your going to need a ride because you wont be able to drive" He told me to tell my friend to come to the "Area" so he could pick me up later, but not the exact spot we were meeting, because it was secret. I pretended to talk to my friend on the phone but i was with 911 and they didn't know. they kept asking me what vehicle i was in and i would say things like "yeah bro i told you im not driving my black truck im driving my green dodge" i was told to tell him to come to the "area" so I said where are we and he said 2 street names which i procedeed to tell 911 two street names. They ask "Are You at that location now sir?" and i say "yeah dude" and then we saw an officer and i said on the phone "oh **** there is an osceola cop he might pull us over I got to go, then the 911 operrator says "WAIT sir, are you in a GREEN TRUCK, and i say, yeah and hang up. we get followed for a minute then pulled over by that cop, and then out of nowhere: 45 seconds later there is a helicopter and 30 cop cars in front and behind me and a cop is holding a gun to the driver door and screaming at the driver "GET THE **** ON THE GROUND NOW" and he is freaking out putting his cellphoneo and keys on the roof. my door is smashed from the crash somehow and it doesnt open so he climbs through the window and falls to the ground where they hand cuff him and then get me out and take me to the ambulance. right after, the boys in the neon try calling 911 saying that i backed into him and a bunch of ****. but the cops knew the real story and after i get released from the hospital, i go to the scenes, and identify all of the people involved and the 4 of them get arrested for 3 or 4 felony's each since the Orange county police department was able to find this video on streetfire through a friend of mine: *note the neon in the pic is just showing significance of the damage. Id like to thank the osceola county sheriffs office for saving my ass in this horrible situation that i came into. Im sure there is someone on here that knows these people and will try and find me. But thats the price I have to pay now for going out to these stupid events, even when i was trying to help someone with there car. Last edited by BobH; 08-12-2008 at 10:08 AM. |

Just one more reason why I don't want to go out to the street races anymore. It has been taken over by a bunch of worthless wannabe thugs. These people are just plain trouble.
I used to have a problem with cops cracking down so hard on street racing so much. Now I really don't see it that way anymore. It's bullshit like this that makes the cops do what they do. Look at the video. What a bunch of idiots! Racing in a crowd of people. Can it possibly get more unsafe? What do you expect from a bunch of idiot ricers. I'm sorry this happened to you dude, even though I don't know who you are. I would seriously consider purchasing a gun now and keeping it with you at all times. Common street trash thugs like this are they type to seek revenge. Good luck to you.

Thats screwed up.
First off the drunk starter should've got his ass kicked for not checking and the racers should've been more alert to the surroundings.

Just one more reason why our government needs to secure our southern borders. I don't think I heard one single person speaking English during that entire video.

if you read what the kid wrote, he said they were Puerto Rican. Meaning they are citizens of this country. So securing the borders wouldnt do you any good, since they were not Mexican. Just b-cuz people speak spanish doesnt automatically mean that they are illegals or that you should assosiate them with the closing the border to solve the problem. Sorry for getting off topic and im glad your ok and made it out. i just get irritated with peoples ignorance sometimes. |

I had a hard time just watching that video. People are WAAAY too close to the road being used as a race track. An ACTIVE PUBLIC 2 LANE ROAD! (No offense to you and your friends, but anyone and everyone in that crowd is a Darwin Award nominee whose age is numerically higher than their IQ squared!)
I agree with most of the sentiments above. You need to become extremely proficient with all 3 types of firearms as do all of your family members. You need to move and CHANGE all of your information, sell the dodge, and lastly read up on the florida laws on the use of deadly force. You will probably have to use it in order to protect your family. All of your family taking a concealed carry course would be a very good investment as well. Remember how our justice system sucks? Unfortunately those tards will probably be back. You just need to be prepared if they do come back... How are you doing? ps - why the hell would your friends even go to something so horridly gay? I know all of my motor-head buds wouldnt be caught dead (or alive) in such an area.

OP I'm glad you came out of this relatively OK. I think I'd head to the local firearms store and pick up some extra protection for you and your family just in case.

It has been a long time since I street raced. The crowd back then was cool and had half a brain.
I did not watch the video but it sounds like that was a bunch of low class thug/trash there. I race at the track where that trash usually does not show up and if they do they are so slow the only thing they can race is each other.
