Uplands Park officer charged in assault, robbery of motorcycle club member

ST. LOUIS   •   Lamont "Puff" Aikens, a former Uplands Park police officer involved in a pursuit that killed an innocent driver in 2009 and led to a $3 million settlement, has been charged in an attack on a rival motorcycle club member.
St. Louis prosecutors charged Aikens, 38, of the 4700 block of Lexington Avenue, on Dec. 5 with first-degree robbery and assault.
Police said Aikens, a member of the Hell's Lovers motorcycle club, beat and robbed a member of another group about 11:30 p.m. Nov. 30 during a charity event at the Masonic Lodge in the 4500 block of Olive Street.
Aikens and another man, Thomas "Guardrail" Viehman, 53, repeatedly punched and kicked the 47-year-old man until he was unconscious, and took his wallet and phone, officials allege.
Prosecutors charged Viehman, of the 800 block of Peppers Corner Road in Silex, Mo., with robbery and assault. Police said Viehman is the president of the Chicago-based Hell's Lovers. 
The victim told police that Aikens and Viehman argued with him after he escorted a female club member to the restroom.  
Aikens has prior felonies including possession of a controlled substance and felonious restraint, officials said. 
He was serving as an auxiliary officer in Uplands Park when he chased a speeding car into St. Louis on Dec. 3, 2009. It crashed into another vehicle, killing Lashanna Snipes, a 34-year-old mother of four who was heading to a family member's house to hang Christmas lights. 
and a $3 million settlement, 
  Prosecutors charged Aikens with holding the commission of a police officer without a valid license, but Circuit Judge Dennis Smith aquitted Aikens of the crime in May. 
In June 2012, a St. Louis jury returned a $3.1 million verdict against Uplands Park for Snipes’ death. She had been driving her sister, two children and a grandnephew when they were struck by the fleeing car.
The plaintiffs’ attorneys said the department hired Aikens about two months earlier, knowing he had a history of 18 arrests — including two felonies.
Derion Henderson, who chose to flee after being clocked at 46 mph in a 30 zone, is serving 17 years for second-degree murder and vehicle tampering.
