Fight Between 2 Drivers at Anderson Speedway Leads to Taser Use and 2 Arrests
A fight between two drivers at the Anderson Speedway Saturday night led to two arrests. During the next to last race of the night, two drivers confronted one another after a black race car was bumped off the track, then crashed into another. Jeffery Swinford, driver of a black car, then drove his vehicle on top of race car No. 33, driven by Shawn Cullen. Both drivers fought for about 30 seconds before a police officer used a Taser to subdue Cullen. Both drivers were led away in handcuffs. "It is absolutely totally, dangerous," said Anderson Speedway Owner Rick Dawson. "It is a 3,500 pound race car going after an individual. It's no different than a gun or a knife, or a bomb as far as I'm concerned. It's gonna have the same results of things don't go right." The Madison County prosecutor agrees and said the event could have been disastrous. "We've seen event with Tony Stewart, somebody got killed in that incident," said Rodney Cummings. "It's a dangerous place to be and injuries can occur. Don't let your temper get the better of you. That would be the moral of the story." Swinford was not available for an interview, but his older brother and the car owner, defended his actions. "You run into us not once, but twice in the same race," said Mike Swinford. "What are you gonna do back up and quit? It's racing. Is racing a sport where you are gonna back up and let the other go because he is beating your car?." |

That was friggin' awesome. Had to laugh at how long it took that retard cop to cuff a man who wasn't even struggling. I'd hate to see him trying to cuff some freaked out crazy person. He'd probably just shoot him... easier
