No Indictment for Former Dallas Paramedic Who Repeatedly Kicked Mentally Ill Man in 2019

[TexasTowelie]

Brad Cox, the former Dallas Fire-Rescue paramedic who kicked a mentally ill man several times while he was on the ground, won’t face any charges over the incident.

On Friday, The Dallas Morning News reported that a Dallas County grand jury was considering a felony charge of injury to a disabled person but ultimately declined to indict the former paramedic.

Video released by the Observer and the News last year showed Cox and a man named Kyle Vess get into an altercation after DFR responded to a series of grass fires in West Dallas. Cox is a trained, retired MMA fighter who has competed professionally.

Vess appears in video to take a swing and throw a piece of PVC pipe at Cox. Both blows seem to miss, but a brief fight follows with the two eventually moving behind a fire truck and out of view from the nearby surveillance camera that captured the incident.
