Today, I was mugged. I saw a cop car in the aftermath and flagged it down. Unfortunately, when the cops stopped the mugger, he said he'd been running away because I tried to mug him. Apparently the fact that he was "well-dressed" and I wasn't means he was telling the truth. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, someone tried to mug me. I panicked and ran. As they chased me with their knife out, I heard a slip and a shout behind me but kept running. Six blocks later I was spotted, arrested, and held for questioning by the police. The mugger fell, stabbed themselves, and told a cop that I did it. FML
Today, I got mugged at work. The sad thing is I'm a cop and was trying to catch the people who mugged me previously while off duty. FML

Today, I got mugged. For an actual mug. FML
Today, feeling out of shape, I went for a jog. I got mugged. FML
Today, I saved a woman from being mugged, and stayed with her until the police arrived. At which point she ignored me completely, and thanked the handsome 20-something police officer for making her feel safe, like I did nothing. Ungrateful cow. Next time the mugger can have your handbag. FML
Today, I stepped outside my office building for a smoke break and I witnessed a mugging so I ran over to stop it. I succeeded in getting mugged instead of the original target. I then couldn't get into my building until a coworker left an hour later. My boss was mad and still doesn't believe me. FML
Today, I was mugged in a public bathroom. All I had on me was a plastic sheriff's badge, so I gave it to them. They laughed me out of the restroom. FML

Some cops are just judgmental people. Sorry to hear that they didn't believe you, hope they realized and got your stuff back.

It makes no sense to judge based on how well-dressed somebody looks though. It's easy to buy expensive clothes when you're stealing other people's money, look at any politician.

Its like a brotherhood in a way. If you see a your partner being a asshole it is hard to tell them to stop. They are the ones who have your back. So if you piss them off you just lost your backup. You have to put yourself in their place.

Shouldn't he have your wallet? And your id?

Were those cops eating doughnuts off the barrel of their guns? To raise their IQ THEY SHOULD STAND ON SOMETHING REALLY HIGH. Sears Tower may help a bit

Cops are idiots sometimes. You can go file a complaint on them. And the fact that they should have gotten the other persons name should allow you to include it in your complaint. Don't let this go. Go file a complaint against them.

Not surprised this happened to you. With all the stereotyping they do, cops seem to be in the news a lot lately. Sorry this happened to you, OP.
