He came SO close to hitting me while I was stopped on Rose about to turn onto North. Feeling very lucky after reading these articles.

Glad you’re ok!

"While in custody, O'Halloran bit and injured an officer's leg, according to BPD." walking dead begins


foomp

>O'Halloran was taken to Northwest Correctional Facility on a $10,000 bail. He is due in court on Monday, July 1, at 10:30 a.m. Due to be released on 'conditions' at 11:00 a.m.


KeeganDoomFire

Conditions: 1. Play nice with the other kids


VTGrown

Stay mostly sober in public.


Hagardy

I mean, if he comes up with $10k, then yes, that is how it works.


OddTransportation121

The fee for bail in VT is usually 10%


Hagardy

Yes, paying a private company 10% and having them put up 10k is one way to do it

Saw this go down on Manhattan drive! I ran up to the truck as he was backing away from the garage he hit but he sped off towards the boys and girls club hoping all the kiddos would be ok


zingsingding

Ah man this breaks my heart. I haven’t heard of anyone getting hurt but I know a lot of kids who bike around that area for fun.


Able_Connection_6066

I did watch him speed through the block towards riverside and no one was hurt!

It looks like you shared an AMP link.

Quite the rap sheet


XxColieMolie

Wow… what a stand up guy…. Man Burlington is sad 😞


XxColieMolie

Wow… I live in that area I’m glad the rain kept me and my daughter in yesterday….


tunestheory

This makes me so mad. I was driving around there with a baby in the back seat when this happened


TheReckoningMonkey

So glad you didn’t get hurt!


Ay-Fray

That is terrifying. Glad you guys didn’t get hit in the crossfire!


Dismal-Clothes-6282

remember this when you vote. Try to maybe not vote for someone who wants to enable these 'people'


disgruntled_townie

Can we start shooting these people or publicly beat the judges that release these people? It’s kind of crazy how everyone but law abiding citizens are receiving special treatment or are given a pass


Ay-Fray

Agreed!! 😣


snodgrassjones

Sounds like it only took a few hit cars and "several" 911 calls for the cops to get out there an chase the guy down. Stay safe out there people.


No-Tomorrow1576

Don’t forget the house he hit


Able_Connection_6066

Actually it was a garage! But still across a sidewalk my kids walk on daily!


No-Tomorrow1576

I knew it was something to do with a house based on other comments, sorry I didn’t get it correct, thanks for correcting me, hope your kids are ok


Able_Connection_6066

Kids are good! Thanks for your compassion


Dismal-Clothes-6282

Remember pals! The drug crisis isn't just confined to the parks and alleys of our city 😀 Every time you start your car and drive you are taking a nonzero chance that one of these fent-ghouls hits you so hard you end up breathing you final breaths on the pavement, bleeding out while the fent-jockey get a sympathetic article written about him in 7 days. This is our strength as a city. Bigots will say its not right to share the road with actual negligent killers, but those are just how strong our progressive values really are. When my boyfriend's seizing to death with his brains on the ground dirty with pavement chunks, I'll take solice in the fact that someone at the my LGBT community will take to the chat to write about how the man who killed my lover was actually the victim.


LuigiSmokesDank

Doesn’t VT have mental health facilities where these people can be committed to ? This guy is a prime candidate .


OffRoadAdventures88

Those got closed decades ago. We just let the mentally ill and dangerous people walk the streets.


Ay-Fray

Seriously. It absolutely ridiculous. Like WHY. We need those mental health rehabs, but whatever, I guess 😒


OffRoadAdventures88

People dig on Reagan for this, but he was right. AT THE TIME all of the asylums were nothing but abuse. Instead of learning from those mistakes we’ve kept them shut down. Now the crazies walk among us.


NonStopGravyTrain

We took our biggest and most capable mental health facility and turned it into state offices.


casewood123

No.


disgruntled_townie

lol I love how you’re receiving downvotes for a very reasonable response.


TheReckoningMonkey

Nope. That’s a big part of the problem.


VTGrown

Montpelier.


XxColieMolie

Sadly not really, we have very few mental health beds in the state and what we do have is always full.


SaladNegative2706

Brattleboro retreat I think is the only one


XxColieMolie

UVMMC has some as well 30 beds in total between voluntary and involuntary beds.


disgruntled_townie

There’s plenty of beds in jail 😅


XxColieMolie

You are not wrong 😅


Ay-Fray

Yeah, but people like that won’t be getting the help they so obviously need there. It’s a shame we will be resorting to that now, after the decisions made by the supreme court 😣


XxColieMolie

Totally agree is all sad it’s a lose lose right now but something needs to change. Our beautiful state is being over taken because we are too kind here.


DayFinancial8206

That explains all the sirens I heard yesterday


Diddlemeonce

This is Tom I made bail.

Really?


Legitimate-Ant-3089

I think he is being facetious. But I bet I could " 7 degrees from Kevin bacon" this incident to progressive liberalism pretty easily.
