–Update – A reader comments (at bottom) that it appeared to be “radar traffic control”, i.e. a speed trap.–
We received a report from a local resident about a traffic incident at Glades and 441 from this morning:
This morning, Thursday, October 24, there were tons of Sheriffs Motorcycle deputies about – at Glades and 441, there was one motorcycle deputy who pulled over a car and they were in the last driveway going into the Mission Bay Plaza from 441 before hitting Glades.
Then there were two motorcycle deputies who pulled over a lady on 441 Southbound on the side of the road after the Mission Bay driveway and right before Glades. She appeared to be Hispanic, but I don’t know. When waiting at the light, I saw one of the deputies ask her to get out of her car and for her to lean against the trunk.
I was watching the whole thing, and it didn’t look as though she felt intimidated or threatened. It seemed as though she was having an amiable conversation with one of them. As I drove away, it saw one of the deputies look inside of her open drivers window. It looked as though it is possible that he reached his hand in, but I cannot say for certain as I was too far away by then (and I was looking through the rear view mirror).
And there was a 3rd pull over, a motorcycle deputy pulled a car over in the Publix/Home Depot parking lot driveway across the street on the northbound side of 441.
We did a quick review of the sheriff’s blotter and don’t see anything that appears to be related. If we find out anything more we will post an update. And of course, if any of our readers know something, please let us know, by Facebook comment or message, a comment on this article, or an e-mail to [email protected].
