May 09–A group of Good Samaritans helped two Tampa police officers restrain a man who was resisting arrest, and it was caught on video.
Surveillance video obtained by ABC showed two officers struggling to get a man in handcuffs at a bus station, and the man shoving the two officers to the ground.
That is, until a man comes up and puts the suspect in a bear hug. He also gets help from three other men who saw the incident unfold.

Definitely not the Hollywood version.
EC:
From the story:
"But shortly after they came to the officer’s aid, one man — a Hillsborough Area Regional Transit (HART) employee — was investigated for his actions by his employers, according to ABC Action News.
Tim Martin, a HART transit supervisor who helped the officers, got a letter from his employers saying he was under investigation and could be disciplined for a “communication gap,” according to ABC Action News."
No good deed, etc.
Wingnut:
HART had a change of heart on disciplining mr Martin.
