Massachusetts man assaulted 7 officers after traffic stop, ranted about Ferguson, saluted in mug shot: cops
Joseph Parker, 34, of Wakefield, was driving through a construction zone when police asked him to slow down at about 12:40 a.m. Tuesday morning, police said.
Instead, Parker allegedly jumped out of his car and punched one officer, Lt. Jeremiah Goodwin, in the head. He then headed towards a second officer. Goodwin fell on concrete after Parker punched him, and suffered a concussion

That started a violent spree that included attacking three officers who tried to arrest him, and three more cops once he was booked at the police station, authorities said.
Police said Parker appeared to be on drugs during the alleged attack, screaming “F--- you cops with your guns” and ranting about Ferguson, Mo.
When handcuffed in the back of a police car he kicked a window several times in an attempt to break the glass and flee the cruiser. Once the glass cracked, he then removed his shoes and tried to stick it through in a failed attempt to escape, police said.
He was also Tased a few times but it had little effect.

He then gestured to the exit and informed the cops “I’m walking out that door.”
He then became violent again crouching in a boxer’s stance in a corner and challenging the officers to a fight. The suspect then charged a cop and punched him in the face.
As authorities tried to subdue him another officer sustained a leg injury. Three others sustained cuts and abrasions, police said.
When being booked in the police station he also broke a metal detector, police said.
