A California dad was arrested this month over his desperate bid to make a dangerous intersection near a children’s park safer. Joseph Brandlin, 44, installed 30-inch-high signs and painted the word “STOP” on the ground — just weeks after his son was nearly caught up in a crash, which he described as the “last straw,” the“I was almost done and no one was going to know anything,” Brandlin told officials at a city council meeting March 17.
Brandlin took drastic action when he and other residents unsuccessfully lobbied city officials for the intersection to be turned into a four-way stop. Brandlin, who spent approximately $1,000 on the renovation, was busted around 2 a.m. March 14 when cops saw the father crossing the street as he was carrying the signage.End to airport misery in sight as Senate approves deal to end DHS shutdown — without Dem immigration demandsHe branded the decision “mind-boggling,” citing other four-way stops in the city, and now risks jail after being charged with grand theft and vandalism over $400. “I was arrested and charged with two felony counts,” Brandlin said. “I was treated like a serious criminal with an effort that was motivated solely by the concern of the children of this neighborhood.”“I’ll do it again if that’s what it takes. Because I’m not gonna wait for somebody to die,” heBrandlin said the intersection is 100 feet from a rebuilt park that became a “popular destination for families and children,” estimating the youngsters there at around 3 to 7 years old. Brandlin told the LA Times he had witnessed several near misses involving kids — including his son, who was almost hit by a bike.He also presented 73 letters from households backing his safety measures to city council leaders, but no action has yet been taken.Brandlin is due to appear in court in June and officials have since removed the temporary stop signs and covered up the paintwork.End to airport misery in sight as Senate approves deal to end DHS shutdown — without Dem immigration demands3K“I’m So Sorry, Mommy”: Savannah Guthrie’s Teary ‘Today’ Apology To Her Missing Mother Will Break Your Heart Howie Mandel Sparks Tense Moment On ‘Live’ After Finding Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos’ Compliment Backhanded: “Like Saying, ‘You’re Smart For A Stupid Person’” Starbucks’ Hannah Montana Drink Flavor Fail Sends Fans Into Furious Frenzy: “Did We FORGET In The Show She HATES Raspberry”Stream It Or Skip It: 'Jo Nesbø's Detective Hole' On Netflix, Where A Troubled Detective Tracks Down A Serial Killer Who Is Terrorizing Oslo
