On the ground! ON THE GROUND! DON'T MOVE! Crawl back to me! Crawl, mother Crawl! Hey, this is Officer Davis. >> And is the car okay? >> Uh Hollywood does police a huge disservice when they portray police vehicle pursuits because the way that Hollywood does it, it looks amazing, but it's almost nothing like what real vehicle pursuits are like. Real vehicle pursuits are incredibly dangerous for both the officer and the public. And officers have to take extreme measures to make sure that they don't get harmed and that the public doesn't get harmed when engaging in a pursuit. And very often, they're threading a very small needle to try to take a subject into custody when speeds exceed 100 mph. And even if the officer does everything right during a pursuit, it can still end in a horrific crash. This is one of [music] those. So, if you see a video and an officer's laying off and not moving and the vehicle goes by, many times they catch them on radar. But if they see and get an estimate that they are at high rate of speed, many times we'll pace them once we catch up to them to see what their speed is if we didn't catch them on some type of radar device. And in catching up to them, we can also catch other violations. >> 427 10-41. >> Got it. >> Hitman in 38 it says, black Chrysler 300, George George 8 David 1 Robert, George George 8 David 1 Robert. >> Copy. >> I really like this double camera view because you can see there's a backup officer. So, I'm going to fill you in on something that's interesting. I like the officer called out the stop, gave his location, gave out the plate before he approached the vehicle. Good stuff. When you're going on a car stop and a unit comes to back you up, a lot of times they'll get on the radio and say, "Control, Frank 15, I'll be en route to back whatever." Or sometimes they'll just go. With these two camera views, it's going to be really interesting to see how they interact. I like double camera view. This is good. Interesting because there's two sides to this thing. Before we go forward with this, that blacked out vehicle like that, that 300, you can't see anything. This for me, perfect opportunity to utilize Pennsylvania versus Mims. Come back to me. You cannot see inside of that vehicle. You have no idea who's driving it. The person could be doing whatever they want inside the vehicle. Then the other thing is that I usually make it as a critique is if you see that the other unit is right there and you're going to approach, why not just wait until that you can both approach from opposite sides and one can be the cover officer. Now, it was really fortuitous for this officer that they didn't do that because now the secondary backup unit is right on the guy's tail and is now the primary unit. So, it's interesting. Policing is fluid. Love this double camera view. Very good stuff. Radio here. Don't know if you caught that. There are two units. The secondary unit advises dispatch, I'm secondary, I'm going to call it. Now, this is a practice that is a very good, basic, but advanced to some degree technique because this allows the primary officer that's right behind to witness everything that they're witnessing and focus primarily on driving. Now, that can switch throughout the pursuit, but these officers sound very calm while they're giving radio traffic. And as a sergeant, I would listen to how my officers were giving radio traffic during a pursuit. So, to hear them this calm, know their direction that they're going, I'm impressed so far with how I'm seeing this. And I think I did this department on something else before. But the things I'm listening for, speeds, direction of travel, traffic conditions, if there's an air unit available. And one of the most important factors as to whether a pursuit should continue is what crime are we chasing them for. So, I know a lot of couples watch this and I'm starting to incorporate the fact that I'd like you to think independently when you're together cuz it's great conversation. It's would you let this pursuit continue? You might have different answers. >> Original charges were CNI. >> So, I don't know if you heard that, but he said the original charges are CNI. I don't know what that is. If you're in from Missouri and you know what CNI is, and I think it's CNI, maybe CMI, but if you know what that charge is, please chime in because that's going to matter. >> All right, it looks like we're going to go eastbound Still in traffic with this car. Lane speeds are 50 to 55. Okay. We got southbound Sterling 4.3. >> [music] >> And traffic with us still. Speed 60 to 65. All right, it was briefly went into oncoming to pass the vehicles at 47th Street. Speed 60 to 65. Check 10-690. 79 hazard, black male driver. Get getting any further. Description of the Our speeds are 92. We're traveling northbound South on I-75 passing through Kitty Hawk. We have our gas assistance of stop sticks up ahead. >> Okay, stop for a second. >> The officer requested stop sticks if you did not catch that. Device placed inside in the road puncture the tires. The tires are not going to explode. They'll slowly deflate and the vehicle will end up stopping. There are a couple of things that as officers know what we're hearing on the radio and what we're observing. So, the officer that's in the pursuit must give anything that could potentially be dangerous during the pursuit that they observe. Here at this point going into an opposing lane and blowing through a stop sign. The officer didn't mention it, but the officer could just be caught up in the tunnel vision. I'm not suggesting at all that the officer intentionally omitted that piece of information, but that will not matter if it goes south. It's incredibly important to mention things as to why and I get why sometimes officers may do that, but this is incredibly important as you watch the video. Cuz at one minute you'll be like, "Yeah, let it go." And then you see something and you're like, "Okay, done. You're going to call it off." And it's just a very fluid, rapidly evolving type of situation. We got another one on the bridge Southbound on West Bound on the bridge. Westbound with the black car. Passing through Kitty Hawk and turning around. I'm going to try to put the stop sticks. Off the bridge back at the passing through Kitty Hawk stop sticks. Speeds are 65 and 70. We're going to break off. >> We just heard the officer audibly groan because suspect nearly T-boned a red pickup truck. Again, what are we thinking? What crime are we chasing this person for that we know of? Can we potentially identify the person later? And I don't know all the details of this. I will continue to mention this. I understand that I am talking to you on YouTube in 72 degrees, but it is important for us to go over these things because of vehicle pursuits are very, very dangerous. I heard the officer say no traffic many times. Many times there could be no traffic and then one street later there is light to moderate traffic. And again, of these pursuits should occur and it's going to occur because innocent people are going to and from dinner. And there are many documented cases. And suspects will drive intentionally incredibly reckless in hopes that the vehicle pursuit will get called off. And I know that in other videos I've done, the comment section almost split 50/50 where people are like, "Oh, no, we got to chase him." And other people are like, "No, it needs to stop." But again, you've got to understand when we watch these things, what is the most prudent thing to do under the circumstances? I am not anti-pursuit, but I want them to be done in the safest manner possible. >> Great job. Can you check on those two vehicles? I think they may have hit a deer. It's a gray GMC and a rental rental car. DRIVER, ON THE GAS. GET OUT. GET ON THE GROUND. ON THE GROUND, MOTHER YOU GOT TO GET TASED. ON THE GROUND. ON THE GROUND. ON THE GROUND. DON'T MOVE. HOLD ON. Come back to me. Crawl back to me. CRAWL BACK TO ME. CRAWL, MOTHER CRAWL! CRAWL! CRAWL! You got the car? Crawl! You go for your waistband, you're getting tased. Keep crawling. Crawl to me. CRAWL TO ME. Crawl to me. YOU'RE GOING TO GET TASED. CRAWL TO ME. DON'T HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. WHO ELSE IS IN THE CAR? Stay there. Don't move. You're fine. You're talking. You're fine. Just stay on your side like that. You can breathe like that. All right. Okay. Just relax. This is a better position for you. Just relax. I will I will sit you up in a second after Listen. AS SOON AS I CLEAR THE CAR, I WILL COME and sit you up. WE GOT TO CHECK. Just hold on. You watch him. Don't move. You can sit up. Sit up. You sit him up, please. On you, buddy. I got You got uh front, I got back. Got you. You sit up, buddy. >> [clears throat] >> In custody. Really high adrenaline, lots really, really good stuff to cover on this. This is a very, very good video. Let's talk about some things. Adrenaline. We heard the officer was incredibly calm while he was giving out radio traffic, new directions of travel, anything. The suspect vehicle crashes, the officer's out of the car. All of that adrenaline now is all inside of him and he's screaming at the top of his lungs and he draws down with his training firearm plastic tip clear. He draws down on the suspect with his firearm and his taser. Now, I've explained to you before and most of you are going to know the name of this challenge when you're doing this because if he decides to use this to taser, sometimes it's called sympathetic reflex. This occurs. So, this is an incredibly challenging thing to do, especially when you're amped up like this. If you go for your waistband, you're going to get tased. You're going to get tased. And you think it's taser and it becomes that. Sympathetic reflex is a real thing and it has happened. The other thing is we see that the officer ends up having his back to the suspect vehicle that he's concerned about being clear and his partner is on lethal coverage on the vehicle. And I get it that sometimes those kinds of things can happen because I think this officer actually is quite tactical. Adrenaline can push you into situations and ways that you just kind of like, oh my goodness, the adrenaline took over. And here's a key factor that you can easily understand how adrenaline can take over. I have graded countless practical problems when you have officers do these scenarios and you'll have a scenario like this. Vehicle pursuit, take a suspect into custody, felony car stop. You try to get the adrenaline up in the training environment. I have never [clears throat] in all of the years that I have done this heard the person in the training F-bomb the person while they're taking them into custody. But you frequently see it when it really happens. It's because it's impossible to mirror the exact degree of adrenaline and nervousness and whatever goes through the human body in a training environment like it is in the real deal. I remember a boxer saying, "It's different when you're in there." And it's very, very true. And so, if that expression of a vulgarity comes out of your mouth, then you've diverted a bit from what you do in a training environment. So, it's just exemplifies that the real deal and adrenaline can make you switch from what you do. And then, the more you train it, the better you get at it. Because what's also interesting, very, very interesting, is when you watch the officer after the adrenaline starts to dissipate a bit, his conversation with the suspect becomes much more calm. He's much more matter-of-fact, knows that he still wants to clear the vehicle. You see his hands as he goes to clear the vehicle, he tells the backup unit to watch him. And this is not just with policing, is why do we have to rush him and grab this guy? We know that we have another guy coming. We have him prone out. His arms are out to the side. He's down. We stay on coverage, coverage of the vehicle, coverage of this guy. We get a third unit up there. Everyone's calmed down a bit. You call him back to your voice. I mean, it's completely understandable, but this is when mistakes can potentially happen. We don't want to be in this taser firearm situation and have something happen when we can just simply slow it down, still be only the coverage. [music] And it that applies with everything that you do in life. I mean, every one of us could potentially run into a really high adrenaline type situation. And adrenaline can be helpful, but it can also make you make mistakes. >> Exactly. Yeah, for sure. >> Relax. >> Can I just get some water? I can't breathe. >> Listen. Would you quit acting like a goddamn baby? >> How am I acting like a baby? I'm >> I will help you in a second. Give me a second, okay? >> I got nothing to lose, man. >> I know. I got you. Everything's in the car. Now, please get some water. Give me a second. What I say? >> I got asthma, bro. >> What did I say? >> I heard what you said, though, but I've been I've been cooperating with >> Bro, you weren't cooperating. You weren't You weren't You weren't cooperating for the last 300 blocks. >> That mask is something that I would take note of, the black mask that he had underneath his jacket. >> I can't breathe. Can I please get some water? >> Yes. Give me a second. >> Oh, my god. >> your first time in a jail? >> It's my girl and our car, bro. >> Sit down. I'll get you some water. Sit down. I will get you some water. >> Can I make a phone call? I don't know no numbers. >> You're under arrest for a felony. I'll get you your phone. Is your phone in there? >> Huh? >> Is your phone in there? >> Yeah, my phone is in Can I get the numbers on my phone? Can I get the numbers on Can I get the numbers on my phone? >> I said will you let me answer Hey. Will you let me answer your question after you ask it? Every question I've given you a response to. So, you need to relax, okay? Take a deep breath. You're fine. Kick your legs in. I'll get you some water. >> Can I Can I Can you raise the window down or can you open the door up? I can't breathe, bro. I'm trying to breathe. >> Yes. >> Hey. Yeah. >> Damn, do you know what you're like a child or a toddler? >> We're in downtown area in Kansas City. >> Oh, this is Kansas City. >> Kansas City. >> Where the crash happened in Kansas City though. >> Yeah, I understand. I will get you some water. >> Oh, there was an accident back there. Yeah, he had a truck. He tried to squeeze through a truck and an SUV. >> Transit. >> Huh? >> [laughter] [laughter] >> Yeah, do you know what you're like a child or a toddler? >> Did you get a picture? Where it was at? I did not. My body cam did. >> Did you catch that? The other officer said did you get a picture of that where it was at? And the officer had the kind of funny grin on his face. I've mentioned this before. Whenever you cover something that is of evidentiary value, it is incredibly important to get a still photograph of it in place. Body cam is great. The way the body contorts, it's not an intentional act and you may not get the exact frame that you want of the item that you are attempting to capture in the photo. >> Oh, yeah. >> So, a lot of people don't realize that's actually a pistol. A lot of people confuse that. That's like an AR type pistol. [clears throat] I've trained with them many, many, many times in many places. It's 100% legal. Is this a person that I would want to have this firearm that acts in this manner, that runs from the police in that manner? This looks like it shoots 5.56 rifle ammo. And um a person who would run from the police in that matter, this is not something that I believe should be in his hands. It requires maturity. >> Put it out. I'm I'm giving you a waterfall. Yeah, I'm giving you a waterfall. You getting a touch of my lips? >> I don't want to touch your lips, bro. >> I know you're looking at me. >> My And my lips bleeding and stuff? >> You got like a little bit of blood. It's just the dust and stuff. You're welcome. This is This is some high-quality H2O. >> Bro, my girlfriend be mad, though. >> You don't stop. What's your name, buddy? >> It's total. >> I don't know what you mean by total. I mean, it's a 2007 Chrysler, so I mean, I guess, yeah. Sit down. >> I should have just stopped. >> Should have. You going to run from the police? Then it's police, my friend. >> Bro, I was scared, cuz, bro, I just got I I ain't got no license, but I got my like Yeah, I got my license, but I don't like I just went and picked it up. >> All right. Pick your feet up. I got to I got to do I'm going to roll your window down. >> Bro, can I make a phone call from my phone? >> Not right now, cuz you're under arrest for felony. >> I'm saying, when I get to the thing >> When you get there, we will let you allow you get numbers. This guy is the lamest guy I've ever met in my life. All right, you're doing big boy crimes. >> Dude, that's your love right there. Nothing. >> Okay, you want to talk? What's your deal? I can't take you home for the night. I don't know. >> I don't know. >> My phone, though, like if if you don't >> got your phone. You see me. I I walked it to you. >> No, it's dead, bro. I can't make no calls. >> I'mma turn it off. >> Please. >> Where you going? >> Huh? >> Where you going? >> I was going home. Go back to my where my girl is. >> Take care. >> That's her car, bro. She's going to be mad. I'm dead. >> You donezo. >> I'm already already good. >> I've been going through a lot. >> Cuz you living a country song right now. >> Huh? >> Cuz you living a country song. What's your What's your password? I ain't turn it off. >> This Keep it like that. >> All right. What? Cuz it's embarrassing, ain't it? It's something like I love rainbows or something like some crazy >> I'm good. >> Unicorns are my favorite. My cousin Terry's calling. >> Huh? >> Cousin Terry's calling. >> Can I answer it? >> They hung up. If they call again, I'll I have to answer for you. I'll tell I'll tell them what's up. >> That's fine. They calling again? >> Uh FaceTime. >> Answer it. FaceTime. But she not online. >> Hello. >> Hello. >> Hey, this is Officer Davison. >> Oh, I'mma call you when I get to the to the gym, bro. >> She He's going to call you He's going to call you when he gets done. >> Okay, is the car okay? >> Uh hold on. I'll show you. Can I show her? I'mma show you how you [ __ ] up. He done [ __ ] it up. >> He did it in a >> Wait, total? Oh my god. >> He pulled up behind me. >> He's worried about it, but he should just stop. >> Okay. >> Uh left one got tighter. >> Yeah, I'll take a look at it. Uh no, no, no, no. He's a laugh. >> I think I don't know if it's from the thing but my finger got hurt with learning out of nowhere. I don't know. >> Yeah, he just said all right. >> I can move it so I don't know what it >> [snorts] >> I'm going to loosen this one up a little bit. They go quick, that's why. I was trying to pull you out because I didn't know if anybody else was in the car. And we do that so I mean we don't want you getting shot if we have to shoot at somebody, you know what I'm saying? >> I was about to pop me anyway. I'm saying I couldn't see that. That's how y'all be trying to scare folks? >> Well, I mean we get we don't know what you what your plan is. We want [snorts] you to be safe and we don't want to hurt you. >> You see I didn't even have I didn't even have nothing on me. See I didn't have nothing on me or anything. That was in the car is in the back seat. >> The pistol was right on the front seat. >> Yes sir. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> I don't know about that. >> Uh-huh. Ain't nobody cared about since like 2007. No, we're good about that. Appreciate it. Awesome. Thank you. Do you have the report number right now? I'll grab it for you. Sorry to cause you paperwork, buddy. >> No, that's my job. I'm the traffic guy. >> Oh hell yeah, then I'm not sorry. >> I have your report number, my last name, and my email on the back on the back of that. Thank you guys. >> Appreciate you guys' help. I know you guys you guys always helping I appreciate it. We all do it. We all appreciate it. >> Thanks you guys. >> Man, this is so much fun. Good living. I hope you guys have as much fun as we do. >> Oh, we do. >> Okay, cool. Now it all feels better. Yeah, the old the old skidder. I love that. Set me back for the set me back for the take away. >> Oh yeah. I seen his brake lights out. I was like, "Oh, this is mine." Once that I sat there sitting in my car for a minute. I was like, "I don't think he's actually going to stop." And as I saw smoke come off I was like, "All right." I was like, "I'm going to wait until he starts to pull up behind me to walk up. Perfect timing. I got your wallet, too, buddy. Yeah. You flew past me. You've got only one plate on the car, and I don't think it's on file. I think it's like super expired. I've seen you driving around before. Yeah. You done [ __ ] it up. You're going to be in the doghouse. You're going to be in the doghouse. You're going to be in the doghouse. No, you know, like when you get in trouble with your old lady. Like in the doghouse. You done [ __ ] up her car. >> This uh conversation between them is really interesting cuz they're both very open about their feelings about what went down. >> Independence. So, basically, you're on a 24-hour hold. A detective will contact the detective. We'll let them know what our charges are. We're waiting to hear back on the gun. Waiting to hear back on you. What they'll do, they'll come in tomorrow. You have an opportunity to speak with them. They'll hear your side of the story, or you don't have to speak to them. It's your choice, obviously. And then they'll present it to a judge and a prosecutor, and they have the They have the option of trying to secure a warrant for whatever charges that we have. If I get it, maybe got a ticket. Yeah. You don't take people to jail, dude. You'll get a ticket. Then you stop and you find out, [ __ ] saying we're You don't run. Even so, you're turning a misdemeanor into a It's not even a misdemeanor, it's a driving infraction. It's a traffic infraction. You're turning that into a to a felony. And you putting you putting people in danger. You could have killed somebody. I know you're scared, but god Look at it Look at the amount of people that you could have that you could have hit. >> Why y'all still chasing me? >> Because you you run for must we catch you. >> Huh? >> You run for must we catch you. That's how the police do. >> And that's the rub right there. The suspect is talking as though he knows why did you keep on chasing after me as reckless as I was driving because he felt that they were going to have to stop chasing him. And the officer's response is interesting. He says cuz that's what we do. That's another thing. You can normally find the policies of departments online as far as what their pursuit policy is. But I have an interesting thing about policy. And I say this, know the policy, do what is right because policies evolve because if sometimes you realize that the policy ends up being a little bit off or it doesn't cover a certain thing. Because there's two sides to this. To be really objective, you have to think of both sides. I don't know what the charge was that they were chasing him for, but there was absolute extreme danger during this pursuit. Do you want this guy to have that firearm on the street afterwards? And sometimes the results are the judge of the circumstance. But you can think of 20 horrific scenarios that could have occurred in this pursuit and that have occurred. It's happened around 7:30 p.m. God forbid a family backing out of their driveway just going to dinner. These things have happened. All of these things have to be taken into consideration. I'm going to look up this department's policy. I believe it's Independence, Missouri. It mentions three very important things. The following are options available to officers to assist in bringing a pursuit to a timely end or avoid the pursuit altogether. Number one, nearly every department has something It's I can't I can't see it clearly here. It says the decision to not pursue is the first and most commonly used option available. Officers are encouraged throughout the general order to evaluate the need for the pursuit, measure the risk versus reward, and are reassured they will not be criticized for deciding not to pursue. This is not in the policy. If something goes south, you definitely will be scrutinized. Officers and supervisors are reminded that sometimes the best decision is to not pursue. Now, I know there are going to be people in the comments saying this is oh, you Sarge, you got old and you just want No, it's not that. It's just a lot of times it's a common sense. And I'm not suggesting this pursuit should not have gone I can't tell you that from watching this video. I could say I saw a lot of dangerous things, but understand that these policies exist for a reason and there are other means. I mean, here they say the Kansas City helicopter is another option. Box in tactics. And the officer [music] that's pursuing, when you calling out that radio traffic, everything that you omit is going to be scrutinized, especially if it goes south. And it looks like in the original video here, it says the subject was arrested for aggravating fleeing or detention causing injury or felony. And it says that he guilty to resisting arrest or detention [music] and sentenced to 3 years. And that's not official, that's in the video. Shout out to this channel. That was a very interesting video to watch and a lot of different stuff to learn from. And I just hope that when you have the young aspiring officers, when I first came on it was just like go, go, go, go. Catch them, catch them, catch them, catch them. But are there other ways? Do we have the license plate? Can we potentially slow down and box them in? Get a helicopter, drones, all different types of things to think about because you can see the danger. And one vehicle was actually hit during this pursuit. And I'm very happy that everyone ended up okay. And I hope that if this guy got the 3 years that that he deserved, that he learn from his mistake because putting everyone else in danger like that is a no go. Which brings me to today's coin, which is very, very interesting because it's about justice. This coin is actually belt clip money clip and I'm going to do the tilt on this. So, I'm going to show you the coin first and I'm going to read the letter that came with it. So, here, I got it out here like this and I'm tilting it and I know I'm going to get flamed if this doesn't work, but I'm tilting it, guys. So, I hope that you can see that. And now I'm going to read it if it didn't work. Tombstone Marshall, Deputy Marshall, Judge from Tombstone, Arizona with a $2 bill connected to it. And I got to tell you why this is really interesting. I'm really big into Westerns. I love Westerns. I've watched movies on Tombstone. I've I've television shows on Tombstone. And to get this from Tombstone, it just absolutely blew my mind in such a really cool way. And here's the letter, because I was initially reached out to by the wife of this person, but I was told I'm allowed to mention the name, and this is from Judge Keith Barth. When I became the judge of Tombstone, I had a money clip design kind of like a challenge coin. If you decide to mention it, he gave me permission to mention it, and it was just wonderful because he has a career in law enforcement. He watches with his wife and really enjoys the show, and now he shared with the channel this incredible money clip from Tombstone. He didn't even know that I'm a big Western fan, and now this is part of the channel's collection. And again, the ones that I didn't show properly, I'm going to show them again, and I'm going to make sure that these end up showing properly going forward.
