An officer then allegedly pulled a sealed emergency release button that shut the MRI machine down, deactivating it, evaporating thousands of liters of helium gas and damaging the machine in the process. The officer then grabbed his rifle and left the room, leaving behind a magazine filled with bullets on the office floor, according to the lawsuit.
The shutdown did have to happen (because the cop is a dumbass) but it obviously should have been done by someone who knows what they are doing. The guy should be suspended for being a dumbass and also for leaving his loaded magazine.

Everything was fine until dickless here shut off the containment grid.
The mechanism they are describing here is the emergency one (like if a human is trapped against the machine by something metal and is being crushed - you need to kill the magnet NOW). There is a slower, much safer mechanism for deactivating the magnet that should have been used here but that would require the officer admitting he had made a mistake and asking for help.
Also I just want to point out that the rifle should be considered no longer safe to use unless thoroughly inspected by an expert. In a similar case some years back, the police officer’s sidearm was pulled into the machine. After retrieval it was found that the weapon had been magnetized by the scanner and as a result the firing pin was able to spontaneously release.

Is that true?
I remember the first time they showed Ghostbusters on network TV. They dubbed ‘nose’ over ‘dick’ in that line…
LOL, even “brain” would have worked better.
Yippie-kai-yay, Mister Falcon!
I’ve had it with these monkey-fighting snakes on this Monday through Friday plane.
😂

Just hit it against a table a bunch while shouting “stop being a magnet”.
Hey, fingers crossed the dude’s weapon goes off somewhere in their ammo storage area, taking out as many of these chucklefucks as possible.
He probably shit his pants at the deafening sound of an MRI machine being quenched, and had to leave quickly to change them.
Yeah, I can imagine someone thinking it’s entirely electrical shitting their pants too a sound of Smaug roaring.
You don’t have to quench a magnet if it isn’t an emergency, field engineera can ramp it down slowly. Jfc what a moron.
He already got suspended. His weapon was suspended there, on this outside of the MRI machine.
Suspended?
With pay of course.
Then a medal for bravery against a magnet.
Later a promotion after his buddies clear him of all wrong doing.
