Military Funeral Escort Attacked on I 75 North of Dayton, Ohio by; Gerald Scott Flint
Military Funeral Escort Attacked by kentucky drivers on I 75 North near Lima, Ohio. Hearse, casket and the fallen's family nearly crashed in an accident. Only by the grace of God were all spared from this nonsense and meaningless violence brought about for unknown reasons on this day. A Tri- State Military Escort Team began it's mission at 05:00 from Marshall , IL to return a fallen Afghanistan War troop to his home for final burial services. From Marshall through Indianapolis, IN through Richmond ,Indiana even through Dayton , Ohio all went very well. Thousands of Americans lined the escort route through three states in freezing temperatures to salute and pay respect to a young Army Ssgt who recently lost his life in Afghanistan serving our nation whilst trying to improve life for those there. Once on I 75 North at exit 99 two Kentucky tagged vehicles and their drivers began a violent form of harrassment by attempting to bully thier way through the escort detail, pushing the hearse and family members vehicles into and off the center of the road. This all took place before the lead vehicle of the Ohio State Police was spotted by the Kentucky drivers. The funeral escort was clearly marked and escorted by Ohio State Patrol. *One has to ask the question! What could possibly be gained by putting so many lives at risk during such a time of sorrow for this lost warrior's loved ones? Anyone who has information regarding the greyish blue Plymouth minivan seen in the video with Kentucky taggs starting with "270" are ask to pass that information back to Ohio State Patrol and/or Lima, Ohio Police Department. You may also contact this IREPORTER , Gerald Scott Flint at volmedics@aol.com and we shall pass this info on to proper authorities. This incident took place at about 12:20 on 17 February 2009 just before exit #99 on I 75 North outside Lima, Ohio. It should be noted that the IREPORTER is an Iraqi/Enduring Freedom/Noble Eagle Veteran and makes this report based on behalf of all those we have lost since 11 September 2001.* Out fallen military and their families deserve our respect no matter what the political opinion that sits behind the wheel of tons of steel going 65-70 Mph.
