Cop Uses Judo Throw On Troublemaker

Cop Uses Judo Throw On Troublemaker

 

This incident happened at a street parade at the 2015 St. Patrick’s Day parade in Buffalo, with over 80,000 people in the streets.

The troublemaker had a jacket with ‘Saint I Ain’t’ written on his back and started to aggressively square up to a group of onlookers.

A police officer took action and used a judo technique to take the aggressor to the ground and control him.

The judo technique is known as Osoto Otoshi.

 

 

Osoto Otoshi is one of the preserved throwing techniques, Habukareta Waza, of Judo. It belonged to the fourth group, Yonkyo, of the 1895 Gokyo no Waza lists.  It is categorized as a foot technique, Ashi-waza.

The tori wraps one arm across the chest of the uke and hooks his leg with tori’s own leg to slam uke to the mat back-first. This technique is similar to Osoto Gari with the one difference being the uke’s leg in this case does not leave the ground, i.e. the tori hooks the uke’s leg, not sweep it.

Olympic judo silver-medalist Naoya Ogawa introduced this move to professional wrestling, where it can also be a lariat-legsweep combination to slam down opponent.
