So yesterday in between fantasy drafts I went to buy my son some shoes for school with his mom. He's 3. We were at the Rack Room when an SUV came plowing through and ended up in the middle of the store. I was inside but wasn't affected. My son was a few aisles over with his mom and the SUV slammed some benches and shelving into them. It missed them by maybe 3 or 4 feet. True freak accident but they were really lucky. His mom had a neck sprain, finger sprain, bruising, a few small cuts and a mild concussion. My son just had glass from the window cut him a little.
EMS treated them and simply suggested a follow up.
The police officer in teh picture was awesome. Great guy and really helpful.
The other guy was the complete opposite.
I went to him as he sat in the vehicle and asked for the police report that he was filling out from inside the car. I asked him for a copy of teh police report and teh first and only thing he tells me is to go ask my son and his mom if they are certain they were hit by shelves and debris. Before I could even answer he cuts me off and says that he is going to go in and look at the video footage from inside the store and if he sees that I or she are lying that he was going to press charges against for filing a false police report. The police report he gave us was with the drivers information. I told him I was sure and was just in shock that he even had the nerve to ask that. Especially when a few seconds earlier I was flipping out inside the store because initially I couldnt even find my son. He was beneath some shoe boxes and debris. I'm going to assume he watched EMS checking him from teh AC of his car. I then just said thanks for the report and stuck my hand out to shake his and he simply turned away from me and started typing on his laptop.
This was a prick in rare form.
I do have his badge number but I don't even know where to begin to contact someone to complain. I'm realistic and know that one complaint will result in a laugh and a light slap on the wrist for him, but if others have complained hopefully he gets reprimanded in some way. There's no need to act like that after what happened a few moments earlier. I was actually still in shock at the time. We all were.
Advice?
I wanted advice on who I could complain to?
