A sheriff's deputy in Albuquerque pulled his pistol on a 70-year-old woman during a routine traffic stop.
Deputy Richard Castillo drew his gun after Margaret King failed to pull over promptly and then started to open her driver's side door, said Castillo's report for the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office.
Failing to stop and opening a car door signals danger for deputies, Undersheriff Sal Baragiola told the Albuquerque Journal in a story published Monday.
When did we substitute "standard procedure" for common sense?
