Give me that taser now. >> Sometimes the difference between danger and safety isn't backup. It's a brave stranger. From split-second tackles to life-saving interventions, these are the moments when ordinary civilians transform into heroes and help police officers win the fight. I want to say why why to my my home into my home. >> This part blew my mind. Trooper Alexandria Duncan was clocking traffic near mile marker 83 when a blur shot past her patrol unit. 114 m an hour. The driver, 26-year-old Angel Zapet Alvarado, wasn't exactly in a stopping mood. She hit the lights, sirens wailing, and after a short chase, he finally pulled over, but the second she walked up, she spotted his hand still gripping the gear shift. You can tell he was itching to run. Thinking fast, she yanked the keys from the ignition, but that didn't calm him down. He ignored her orders to get out. When she tried to pull him from the car, things turned violent. He fought back hard. She fired her taser, but in seconds he had grabbed it, ripped it away, and hurled it into oncoming interstate traffic. Then it got brutal. Zaped Alvarado started kicking her in the head over and over on the side of a highway. >> Give me that taser now. They shoot Get off your back. >> And here's where the hero shows up. 31-year-old Kylie Sutton from Rogers just happened to be driving by. She saw what was happening and ran toward the fight. Her quick thinking gave trooper Duncan a split second to draw her gun. One shot right to the suspect's temple. But unbelievably, even after being hit, he kept resisting, refusing to go down. Later, tests showed his blood alcohol level was 0.16, twice the legal limit. Trooper Duncan had injuries but survived. And without Kylie Sutton's courage, this could have ended in tragedy. What would you have done if you saw that happening in real time? Just when you think the last one was intense, this next one takes a turn you wouldn't expect. Call my lawyer. >> April 21st, 2022. Haber Springs, Arkansas. Corporal Griffin pulls over a car for tailgating and making an improper pass. Pretty standard traffic stop until he walks up and catches a strong whiff of marijuana. The driver's mood shifts fast, defensive, confrontational. Griffin asks him to step out, but the man refuses. Words get heated and then the driver starts physically resisting. You can see it in the body cam. Griffins trying to keep control, but the suspects tensing up, pushing back, and refusing to comply. And here's the part that blew my mind. >> Wow, this thing is big. Beautiful. [Music] That might >> Yeah. >> You got him. >> Yeah. >> You got a hold on. >> A passing driver spots the struggle, pulls over, and runs toward the fight. He's got a firearm in hand. Not to threaten the suspect, but as a precaution. From his angle, it looked like the man in the car might be reaching for a weapon. The good Samaritan helps Griffin wrestle the suspect out and pin him down until he's cuffed. No shots fired, no one seriously hurt. Later, Corporal Griffin flat out said this stranger's quick thinking might have stopped the whole situation from turning deadly. Would you have jumped in if you saw an officer struggling like that? And this part is just pure timing. Homie [ __ ] man. Bro, homie. [ __ ] >> Bro, I get his name. >> Oh, man. >> You say northbound Denver from 11. >> Hey, can we >> In Tulsa, Oklahoma, an officer was questioning a man for something as small as illegally crossing the street. No big deal. until the guy suddenly bolts. The officer gives chase, but the suspect is quick and weaving through traffic. That's when a pickup truck pulls up. Behind the wheel is Ty Clem. He takes one look, jumps out mid traffic, and sprints straight at the guy. One perfect tackle later, the chase is over. Clem holds him until the officer catches up and they slap on the cuffs. Turns out jaywalking was the least of his problems. He's hit with charges for resisting arrest, possession of drug paraphernalia, and even illegal possession of a firearm. Crazy how a random driver just ended a chase in seconds. If you were in Clem's shoes, would you have made that tackle? When a passing driver, who happened to be a Brazilian jiu-jitsu student, jumped in to help? The civilian pulled over, exited his car, and calmly used his BJJ training to control the suspect's legs and upper body. At one point, when the suspect tried to grab the officer's gun, the man firmly instructed him to let go, then helped pry the suspect's hand away. His calm communication and expert technique made the takedown safe and effective. Hold up. Things are about to get wild. Picture this, San Antonio. Cops tangling with some dude who just refuses to chill. I mean, every time the officer thinks he's got it handled, the guy squirms out, thrashes around. Just pure chaos. Then out of nowhere, this guy driving by clocks what's going down. But he's not your average rubberneck. Nope. This dude trains Brazilian jiu-jitsu. So what does he do? Slams on the brakes, hops out like it's no big deal, and dives right into the mess. He doesn't showboboat. There's nothing dramatic. He just straight up uses his BJJ skills. Boom. locks up the guy's pins, his upper body, like he's running drills at the gym. But here's where your heart rate spikes. Suddenly, the suspect goes for the cop's gun. The civilian sees it happening, doesn't freeze, just commands him, "Let go!" and physically pulls the guy's hand off the weapon. Talk about nerves of steel, man. By the time backup arrived, the suspect was already secured. Later, Gracie University called the man a legend and even gifted him their 32 principles of jiu-jitsu course for free. Imagine driving by and realizing you're the one person who can stop a suspect from grabbing a cop's weapon. Would you have stepped in? And here's where a family's day nearly turned into a nightmare. In Houston, police were in hot pursuit of a bank robbery suspect. The chase led him right into a parking lot where he spotted a car with an easy target, a disabled father sitting inside. The suspect yanked the door open, ready to take off with both the car and its occupant. But what he didn't count on was the man's son being right there. Without hesitation, the son jumped in, blocking the suspect's path. The robber responded with a punch straight to the face, but the son held his ground long enough for officers to arrive. Moments later, police had the suspect in custody and recovered a bag stuffed with stolen cash. Quick thinking, zero hesitation. That's what stopped this from becoming much worse. Would you risk taking a hit to stop someone from hurting your family? >> Come on. Come on. Come on. You're okay, bro. You're okay. You're okay. Over here. Over here. Right here. You're okay, bro. You're okay. Please. You're going to be all right. >> Listen, you're going to be okay, bro. I promise you that. >> And this next one proves that heroes can come from the most unexpected places. Houston. Picture this. Sirens screaming, bullets flying, total bedum on the highway. Cops and some maniacs are trading lead. And smack in the middle of this mess, a cop goes down. No cover, nowhere to crawl. Just out there bleeding and probably thinking, "Well, this is it. Enter John Lie." Yeah, that John Lie, the guy with a wrap sheet, not some squeaky clean hero from a TV show. He doesn't even flinch. guy just bolts straight into the gunfire like he's got a death wish or something. Grabs the wounded officer, hauls him behind whatever slab of concrete he can find, and doesn't let up. Just keeps talking, calming the cop down while bullets are still cracking all around them. Wild stuff. Because Lie didn't freeze or run, that cop made it out alive. The city wasn't about to let that slide by. Nope. They went and named a day after him. December 20th, officially John Lie Day. You don't see that every day, huh? Now, jump over to Ohio. Nothing epic at first, just a cop trying to slap cuffs on some guy for burglary. Then the dude freaks out, starts swinging, and suddenly things go sideways. Two random people nearby. They don't just stand there with their phones out. Nope, they're in it. right in the thick of the scuffle, pinning the suspect until more cops show up. Saved the officer from getting wrecked. The department gave them a shout out. Deserved, honestly. And down in Tampa Bay, a whole other level of chaos. The officers just asking questions, then boom, the suspect blips, starts throwing punches, and grabs for the cop's gun. Three random folks, a cab driver, someone from a pharmacy, and just a guy walking by run in without thinking twice. They pile on, wrestle the guy off the gun, and pin him down. The cop got roughed up, sure, but he's breathing because those strangers stepped in. The whole city's buzzing, calling them heroes, and for good reason. If they hadn't jumped in, that story probably would have ended way darker. Honestly, you see this stuff and have to wonder. Maybe there's hope for us yet. >> What's up? >> Yeah. >> On a sweltering Texas day, two officers were chasing a suspect who had fled from a stolen vehicle stop. The pursuit was intense, weaving through streets under the scorching sun. But heavy gear and brutal heat started to take their toll. One officer began to slow, overheated and exhausted. That's when a passing driver, Jimmy Davis, spotted what was happening. Without a second thought, he pulled over and offered the officer a ride. It wasn't just a helpful gesture. It was the boost needed to close the gap. >> With Davis's help, the team caught up just as Brown was putting the cuffs on. "Taxi services here?" the officer joked as he jumped out. >> I think he said something like, "Taxi services here," or something like that. You could probably hear it in the video. >> Had to get a taxi. Don't mind me. As they closed in, rookie officer Samuel Brown, fresh out of the academy and working with just one arm, stayed right on the suspect's heels. The timing couldn't have been better. Davis stopped the car. Brown moved in and seconds later, the cuffs were on. In moments of danger, heroes can be anyone. Officers, bystanders, or even tourists stepping up when it matters most.
