A Houston police officer battling stage 4 metastatic colon cancer has helped to rescue hundreds from the floodwaters left behind by historic storm Harvey.

Norbert Ramon, who has been with the Houston Police Department’s Traffic Enforcement division for 24 years, received the call from his sergeant as the rain started to fall on Saturday.

Cindy said Ramon’s cancer quickly became the furthest thing from his mind. He was put on desk duty three weeks ago out of concern for his health, but as a part of the Lake Patrol he has had a hand in helping to rescue 1,500 residents from floodwaters.

“He’s been so caught up in the emotions and the excitement of trying to rescue people, he had no time to even think about it,” Cindy said. “You wouldn’t even think he had cancer, he’s plugging along like he doesn’t.”

In before Ras posts about five different articles about some bad cops and says I'm trying to divert the thread by posting a good story.

I wonder why folks aren't asking why the other cops on scene didn't stop the offending officer?

Oh, i know why, just following orders.

Want to know why we have so many bad cops?
Because most of your so called "good cops" do absolutely nothing about the bad. A lot of times the good cop who will report a crooked officer will be harassed by other officers until they resign or are fired. The system is broken.

Why are we training cops to do a medical procedure such as drawing blood instead of training them to apprehend people without 3 or 4 others having to help him tase/chokehold an assailant?

Was there a supervisor on scene? If not, why the hell not?

There is absolutely NOTHING legal about any of this situation. Violation of 4th amendment, false imprisonment, etc etc.

My wife's an ER nurse. I'm a cop.

We've both been in this situation. If you have an impaired driver who is too out of it to choose whether to consent to a blood draw, you apply for a search warrant with the requisite probable cause.

But this...is inexcusable. Good job dhead, you just made the job harder for the rest of us.

This is just a microcosm of how little you actually know about police work.

Medical professionals draw the blood, not us.

Don't forget about his buddies on scene that didn't step in and stop him, they are accomplices deserving prosecution.

Also, don't they take a blood draw the moment the patient enters the hospital? Why was there a need for a second blood draw just for the cops?

The way most of the news articles read, the police there are trained to draw their own blood samples.

By all accounts, the head nurse at the University of Utah Hospital’s burn unit was professional and restrained when she told a Salt Lake City police detective he wasn’t allowed to draw blood from a badly injured patient.

Salt Lake police spokesman Sgt. Brandon Shearer initially told local media that Payne had been suspended from the department’s blood draw unit but remained on active duty.

In the extended video, the officer refers to his blood draw kit in the trunk of his cruiser.

That just shows how little YOU know about how this works.

In this particular instance, it appears so. See my previous post.

LE either has to do so with consent or by search warrant. From what I read, this individual was not of sound mind and body and therefore unable to give proper consent. Therefore, a search warrant was required...

This dipsh** just decided he was Billy Bad@$$ and the 4th Amendment didn't apply to him.

This clown from Illinois made the mistake of trying to help people in Houston by driving on public roads with his uninsured and unregistered vehicle. Doesn't this clown know that cops, even during a natural disaster, get a hard on for pulling people over for not having their papers in order?
