What is going on? Step out here to me. >> Stay still. >> My son did this. >> That's your son? >> Yeah. >> Hey, you get a good picture of that. >> Get a good picture of what? What? What you seen in there? Would you kill human? >> If I had to. If you had to. What if I killed your mother? What would you do to me? Tell me what you would do to me if your mother and I fell into your hand. >> Police officers respond to countless calls involving criminals. But what happens when those offenders are killed in action? These were the moments when officers stopped just in time. We begin with a case where officers responded after neighbors reported that a disabled elderly woman was in immediate danger. What they discovered moments later would reveal the true horror of the situation. >> In the black box? >> Yeah. >> Oh my god, dude. Long story short, I want to see what >> on May 2nd, 2023, officers were dispatched to a residence in Ohio after receiving a tip about a missing woman who was allegedly locked up in a man's basement. Here's the footage of how the incident unfolded as the officers made contact with the man. >> Bro, you'd can't be here like this. >> You can't be here like this, bro. >> I'm just knocking on your door. >> I understand that, but you making you making me hot. >> What? >> You're making me hot. What does that mean? >> I'm about to come up. >> All right, come on out. >> Apparently, this all started in front. >> Give me a few minutes to take a look. >> How you doing, sir? >> Y'all can't be out here like this. >> My name's Officer Robas. That's officer Oed. Just so you know, everything's recorded. >> Listen. >> Yes. >> Turn those cameras off, please. >> Well, what's what's going on? >> Can you please turn the cameras off? >> You have to give me a reason, and I can't. You guys are making my hot spot. I work for you guys. Okay, long story short, I work for you guys. Please get out here. >> You guys are born and spotted. All right. >> Who do you work for? >> I can't tell you that. Why? >> I cannot tell you that because I'm not allowed to tell you that. When officers made contact with the suspect, 31-year-old Dante Edmund Guyger, he asked them to turn off their body cams, claiming he was some sort of undercover FBI agent. Of course, they didn't comply. And as the scene unfolded, the disturbing reason why he didn't want anything caught on camera began to surface. >> Okay, so just understand that. >> Well, here, go home. >> We have a call here, sir. Let me just tell you why we're here and then we'll leave. It could be nothing. I don't know. I don't know anything about you. >> All right. I'm just saying y'all can't be here. Y'all making my spot. All right. Well, that doesn't make any that doesn't make any sense. >> Don't I I don't It don't need to make sense to y'all. You So, what I need y'all to do is >> Hey, sorry. Can you come over this address for a minute? >> No, don't don't do that, bro. >> The man was suspected of having a woman tied up in his basement. And this was likely the reason why he didn't want the officers to enter the home. >> Okay, long story short, I need y'all to leave. Make a phone call. >> Well, we're not going to leave that quickly until what's going on. >> There's nothing. >> So, we were told that there ladies tied up in the basement. There ain't nobody tied up in the basement. Can we look? No. No. But why? >> Why not? >> Because I say so. Um, >> it's so tied up down there. >> No. >> What's your name, buddy? >> I can't tell you that, bro. >> What do you mean you can't tell me that? >> This your truck? >> My dump truck? That's my company truck. >> It's in my It's Yeah, there's nothing going on with it in your name. >> No. >> Then why why don't you want to tell us who you are? >> I'm trying to tell you I am an confidential informant. That's all I have to say. You guys are bing right now. You guys are >> No, that's not all you have to say. >> That's Who told you that? >> I I can't say nothing else. >> Well, if there's something happened in the basement, we got >> Nobody in the basement.

We got to take this seriously. >> What three girls? >> Gina, the Jesus. >> I don't know the stuff. You know what I'm saying? If we don't take this seriously, I'm about to give you my social security number. Oh, yeah. We're not going in without >> do that. Tell him please not to do that. >> Do what? >> I'm not going in your house. >> That's fine. That's fine. >> Sergeant, please tell him not. >> He's not going. >> Okay. I'm going to give you my social security number. >> I want you to run it. >> Okay. >> Come up. Come. What's going on is you guys had a crackhead make a foster claim. >> All right. >> Okay. >> Well, that's an answer. >> That's it. >> Well, then we still have to follow up on it. >> There's nothing going on, sir. >> All right. All right. But do you understand our point? >> I understand your point. You're actually >> If we just walk away and somebody actually is there, what are we going to do? >> Well, that's what you guys are going to have to do because I'm not letting you inside. >> You see you see where the problem lies? >> No, there is no problem. >> We don't just write he said it's cool and we leave. >> Well, that's that's how it goes. Because if I >> No, that's not so [cough] what do you mean? [clears throat] This >> So, they're not going to let this go. >> Well, listen. >> So, either today, tomorrow, the next day, in the next 5 minutes, you're going to considerly have these problems. And if we have to talk to Detective Smith and say, "Hey, do you think this guy would have a girl kite up in his basement?" >> He's going to say no. >> Is he? >> 100%. Bro, I just >> He's willing to risk his career for all that. >> Do you think I'm [ __ ] Oh my gosh. You're going to take a a crack of his word over uh Detective Detective Smith's word, right? >> I haven't spoken to Detective Smith. >> Well, you going to talk to me? He going to let you know what's going on. I I was down there for an hour with him yesterday. >> I just left my probation officer. >> Why would somebody Why would somebody say that? >> Crackheads. But why would a crack say that about you? >> The crack is probably cuz they want more crack, bro. >> Do you have crack? >> No, I'm not going to. Why would I say that? Why would you ask me that on camera? >> I don't know. >> Why would you do that to me? >> I know I don't have no crack. >> It's my job. Well, why would the crackhead be here then? >> The officers noticed major inconsistencies in the story of why they weren't allowed to enter the basement. Despite [music] this, the officers insisted on coming into the house to search for the woman. music of space. >> I know that's there's a loud music. I had a knock for a minute on the back. So, >> all right, let's go back here. No, not about this. >> Yes, you can, bro. >> I'll talk to your officers coming. >> Talk to the text. >> I did, too. I only want I only need you in my house, bro. >> Just a single guy. We'll be fine. Please. Please. >> You understand the the safety issue of it, right? For a police officer, bro. You know what I mean? >> Trust me, fine. You just see me. >> Anybody got a lighter? >> I smoke my nerves if needed. My nerves are really bad. >> Let's get out of the rain. I don't want to. >> Just stay here. >> I want to get out of here, too. >> But you mind if they're looking? >> No. Dude, there's too much going on. >> No, no, no. >> All right, stand outside. Leave this crack, though. Okay. >> The basement turned out to be empty, but the officers weren't convinced that was the end of the story. No cost. Okay. >> Later that night, a different informant told the officers a haunting story about the suspect. >> His girlfriend see he has a girlfriend named who's a black girl and they tied her up, stabbed her and killed her. He showed me pictures. He was they made you made her right a thousand times. I am a rat. I am a snitch. I am a rat. I am a snitch. Then where he murdered her at ripped up for the fire pits, he ripped up all like the tile right there. Told me I have to paint it and I have no choice unless we paint it tomorrow. And he was telling me everything about my pierce. He said I'll you too. He's like, "Spill a heart." But he learned that [ __ ] And he took I guess he in the basement. My friend Katie see her in the basement. Police and they said," he called the detective. Detective said, "We'll just let let them search your um basement." So he moved her body from the basement to upstairs and let the cops come in to search the basement and left. Apparently, the suspect had moved the body from the basement earlier that day after hearing that police were on their way. The woman's account of what had really been inside became a major breakthrough. Officers returned to the home, this time with a greater sense of urgency and a much clearer idea of what they were looking for. >> Hey, hey, did you talk to Detective Smith and tell you what's going on? Yes. >> All right. So, I appreciate this. Um, he's a lot of people over this. >> Yeah. >> You know, my love. >> What's up, dog? How y'all doing? Sign people. Sign people. Sign people. >> I'm over time now, man. Come through the pack. Okay. >> Yeah, I can do that. >> Is that cool? >> Yeah. Yeah. >> You sure? >> Yeah. >> Thanks for doing it. >> All right. Sorry for my attitude. Okay. >> Give me 5 seconds. >> The bad car. >> Oh, no. >> All right. In these quote 5 seconds, the suspect was most likely trying to hide the body for the second time. After waiting for about a minute, the suspect came to the back door. >> Y they know what I told you about, though. >> Listen, we're here to look to see for a body. That's it. Um, you give us consent to make sure there's no one laying dead in here. >> This is my uncle. >> Yeah. >> Go outside. You >> going to let him out? >> Yeah. Yeah. >> You take off, man. Let him out. >> Do you give us? I'm going walk out. I'm going walk up to this. >> As the officers searched the house, they heard a harrowing sound coming through the walls. >> Where you at? >> Where you at, man? >> M35. You can send us two numbers. >> Hello. >> All right, we're looking. >> Hey, how do you get to her? >> In the black box? >> Yeah. >> Oh my god, dude. >> Radio, sit here, miss me. >> I'm paranoid. >> Oh my gosh.

We want to get you out of there, but I'm afraid to move you. I'm going to let EMS do all that. Okay. >> It hurts so bad. What did he do to you? >> He did what? >> He said, >> I know you can find her here. They can >> Are they here? >> No. >> They've been dispatched. >> Huh? >> Did he stab you? >> Where are you? Where did you think? >> Your arm. All right. Did he sexually assault you at all? No. >> Okay. Do you know how long you've been here? No. >> Did Is it just one day? >> The victim was transported to the hospital. As for Delante, he was taken into custody and brought to the station where detectives led him into an interrogation room. >> That was [clears throat] like I wasn't going to I wasn't going to I've been eating her and you know what I'm saying, but I just can't have her. I don't I just cuz I'm working with Detective Smith trying to get him guns, five AKs, four Glocks three that's supposed to be going into the valley like next week. You know what I'm saying?

So she probably got there like one day or something. >> Yeah. One day she was kicking it cool. Hold up. Hold up. Hold up. You know what I'm saying? Eating lying to me. Like that.

This is crazy. I felt like I was going to die if I didn't hold her for like 2 days and tell her like let her know what was going on. I'm killing it. would have been name. Long story short, I wanted to catch you with Would you mind walking me through again? I I know it's a little tough right now and it's it's bad time but like everything [snorts] that went through like the time where you were together like what happened during those days moved from the basement to another room fed her showered her some water put a blanket over her I'm just telling you the truth really no let's find Was I rap for her? >> No. >> Okay. Is that what you about to ask me? >> No. What you about to ask me? >> No. Like were you giving her drugs and stuff like that? >> Why would I give her my So any point were when was she asking to leave? Different things like that. She has nowhere to go. Okay. She has nowhere to go. All she was just asking was why. Stop. I won't do it again. I'll never tell. I'll never tell. I'll never tell. Blast. Please, I'll never tell. I know I deserve this, but I'll never tell. Like, that's a cold in the street. You know what I'm saying? Yo, I got four beautiful kids. Okay. So, during this time when the traffic stop occurs and she goes on her way, was there anybody that ever said like besides like if she was doing anything that like, "Yeah, she told me." >> No, I thought it was somebody else until I did my homework. >> Okay. So this is all you transpiring doing everything doing all your own >> stuff in your head and like hey >> listen to the detectives as we log out the car detectives like you can go. Thank you. >> Okay.

Y [ __ ] Them cops is horrible, boy. I'm slick, boy. I ain't trying to brag no boss. I try to brag no boss, bro. You know what I'm saying? We going we help y'all out flat out.

She should understand that. You know what I'm saying? Like >> Yeah. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Like you you know what I'm saying? Right. So like I need to go home. home turned out to be the last place that Delante was going. He pleaded guilty to felonious assault, kidnapping, tampering with evidence, and having weapons under disability. He was sentenced to 16 to 20 years in prison. Up next, when police responded to a lead involving a vehicle connected to a missing person investigation, [music] they had no idea they were about to uncover something far more disturbing than a simple disappearance. Looks like this uh comes back to a missing person. >> Georgia, too. >> You have your ID on you? >> Yeah. Yeah, I got you. Winston that young girl make it home safe. I kidnapped her, man. >> On October 12th, 2025, officers in Ohio received a flock alert for a vehicle traveling westbound. The car bearing a Georgia license plate had been flagged in connection with an active missing person investigation. But when officers located the vehicle, what should have been a routine welfare check quickly took an unexpected turn as the driver reacted in a way no one anticipated. >> I'm behind Georgia. Looks like this uh probably comes back to a missing person. Okay, copy. You're stopping it there. Okay, like 11. You want to start that way also? 1178 for report. >> Hello. >> I'm Officer Blair with Lachland. Uh the reason I'm stopping the car is this car hit on one of our cameras uh and said that there's a missing person attached to this license plate. >> Do you have your driver's license on you by chance? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Is this your car? >> No, this my homeboy car. It's >> your homeboy's car. Okay. >> We going to where he at now? >> Where's he live at? >> Oh, he over there over there in um Lincoln Heights. That's where we driving over there. Meet him. >> Okay. Where are you Where are you guys from? >> Oh, we from Georgia. >> You're from Georgia? >> Yeah. >> He's from Georgia, too. >> Do you have your Do you have your ID on you? >> Yeah. Yeah, I got you. >> Stop. >> This car is taking off on me. Vehicles fleeing from you. Direction 943 road vehicle. >> Wind stop window. >> DRIVER WITH YOUR HANDS OUTSIDE. OPEN THE CAR DOOR. >> OPEN the car door from the outside. >> Push the door open. Step back. FACE AWAY FROM ME. >> 435 writing road felony stop. >> FACE AWAY FROM ME. KEEP YOUR HEADS UP. BACK UP. BACK UP. BACK UP. Back [screaming] up. BACK UP. GET DOWN YOUR KNEES. >> The driver immediately attempted to flee, sparking a brief pursuit, but he didn't get far before officers managed to disable one of the vehicle's tires. As the car finally came to a stop, officers believed the missing person investigation was nearing a resolution. And what they were about to find would raise even more concern. Keep your eyes still. >> Public taking the driver to custody now. >> Copy. Driver being placed in custody 85. Checker terminal for a detail. Fresh. >> Secure. >> Five leg 11 is secure. We're clearing the vehicle. Vehicle is clear. >> 5 11 clear. Securing the channel. Vehicle is cleared. Fire department has been notified as well. >> Go ahead. Step up, boss. >> Go ahead over here. >> You got anything on you? >> Hey, LONG BEFORE YOU CRUISE BY, MY FRIEND. You want to pull that back for me if you don't mind? >> Yep. >> All right.

Uh pink and gray tights left by unknown means. >> I got go and take a seat there. >> All right. You can log it out then. Thank you. >> Yep. There you go, sir. >> Yeah. >> That young girl make it home safe. I kidnapped her, man. How force they come. >> You kidnapped her? >> Yep. She ain't a part of it from Georgia, man. >> What's your name? Perified. >> What is it? Randall, I wanted in Georgia. That's why I kidnapped him. >> The suspect had allegedly admitted that the young girl inside the vehicle had been kidnapped. What began as an effort to locate a missing person had suddenly evolved into something far more serious, shifting the entire direction of the investigation. >> What's the girl's name? >> 17. Had nothing to do with my >> Give me just a second. So this girl was kidnapped from Georgia. >> She was kidnapped from Georgia. >> What did he say? He said he was kidnapped from she kid he kidnapped her from Georgia. They put the one a person on the the license plate. I guess they don't know who it is. So I'm getting contact with Georgia. See what's going on with it. He's got nothing going right now. >> Okay. >> But his name is Randall. >> He was the suspect in the kidnapping. >> I don't know all that. He was he just stated I kidnapped her. So, >> I've got her in my car. >> You do? >> Yeah. >> Good job. >> Appreciate it. >> Good job. >> Thank you. >> How are you? You okay? >> What's been going on? >> What is it? Sounds like 11. >> 11. Go ahead. >> Uh, Georgia got the flock kid called in looking for Jeffrey. May have been a firearm that was taken when he left out. As of right now, who we have in custody is a Randall. He doesn't have an ID on it, so I'm still confirming his ID. >> You have any ID on you at all? >> Or is everything in the car? >> I don't know. >> Frank. >> Okay. Who was that? Who was driving? >> Do you know him? While speaking with the victim, officers noticed that she appeared to know personal details about the suspect. It was an unexpected discovery that raised new questions about their relationship, suggesting there was far more to this case than a simple abduction. >> What's his name? >> Huh? >> Randall? Are you sure? >> Do you know his last name? >> Give me a second. 12. I know there's a lot of traffic, but we have north there 83 should be pulling up on you also. >> Where are you from, Mr. >> I'm from? >> I'm from here. I've been living in my life. I was born here. I left a couple years about 25 years ago. >> Mr. >> Shut up. >> I'm going to read your Miranda warnings. Okay. So, you stated you you kidnapped this individual, correct? >> Yes, sir. >> Is this all from Georgia? >> Yeah. >> What is your relation to this young lady? >> Uh, no. No relation. She was just uh cool and uh she seen something that I ain't want her to tell. So, I told her to come with me. >> When you say she seen something like she seen a crime or something? >> Yes, sir. That why I say Georgia want me. >> Okay. As I put him in the car, he stated that he kidnapped her from Georgia. Okay. >> Kidnapped her from Georgia because she's seen a crime happen and he didn't want her telling. >> Actually witness intimidation stuff, too. >> Yeah. >> Georgia ain't going to like that. >> Okay. >> What do you want done with her? You want me to take her back to your PD or >> Yes, please. If you could, I would appreciate that. >> She's in my car. >> All right. Um, do you want do you want me to help you out? I mean, I can you >> to be honest with you, this is a very first for me, so I'm trying to get in contact with Georgia. Yeah, we'll all we'll all we'll all figure it out. We'll all get it together. >> Um, are you guys wanting to secure the car? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> She being cooperative, I would say. >> Yeah. >> At this point, officers quickly worked to establish contact with authorities in Georgia, hoping to piece together what had led to the girl's disappearance. What they didn't yet realize was that this case was connected to another disturbing crime. >> Hello, this is Officer Waters from Lachland. >> Hey, Waters. How you doing? This is Officer Fountain. >> Hey, how are you, sir? >> I'm doing all right. Um, got a situation where first time with this. I'm just trying to call and get some information on it. Give me just a second. Hold on. I'm on the phone with Georgia real quick. I'll let you stand. >> Sorry about that, buddy. So, we had a flock on this car for a missing person. Um, >> that's right. >> My partner tried to stop the vehicle. The vehicle ended up fleeing on him. Uh, we went on a chase with him. We finally his cars it ended up going to he ended up have two flat tires. The car ended up catching on fire. We finally got him into custody. Um his name is a Mr. Randall. >> How many people is in the vehicle? >> We had a driver Randall. Then we had a female passenger who >> the missing person is the Jeffrey white male that's registered that vehicle and we're we're it's a possibility that they may have done something with him. >> Okay. So >> soon as I gotten him in the car, he made statements of saying he kidnapped this girl. He kidnapped this girl because she's seen a crime happen and he didn't want her to tell. >> Oh. >> And then I mirandized him right after that. After I meanded him, he answered a few more questions and I haven't gone any further on him. I wanted to get in contact with you guys. >> Yeah. or or maybe whenever if y'all end up talking to both of them or just ask him where he's at because that's >> all Charles. >> This is what we were kind of thinking that may have happened. >> I just talked to our detective that took the case over after I sent the report in. Um he's he's got a heads up and [music] then I'm fixing to give him a call back in a minute. >> Are you wanting the vehicle in any way? >> No, we just really want to count for him. That's that's where this whole thing is. >> During a call with a local sheriff's office, officers learned that the suspect was no stranger to law enforcement. His criminal record included numerous arrests and theft related offenses. But as investigators dug deeper into his past, they uncovered a connection to the unexplained disappearance of a man. A discovery that would take the investigation in an entirely different direction. >> He's actually suspected in a in a uh theft that just occurred a few days ago um prior to this. The the story was that him and that girl left with the Jeffrey from Jeffrey's apartment and then that's when the last contact and anything has been of any of them except on flock. >> Okay. >> From here all the way through Knoxville up through that way. And I we were all refreshing our flock >> and I said, "Let me call you guys." And at the exact same time y'all were in pursuit of it. Are you guys looking for a gun or anything like that in specific? >> The Jeffrey guy made a report of a firearm that would have been taken out of his apartment also a few days prior to this. >> Okay. >> Y'all did find one? >> Not yet. I mean, I'm about to tell it. I'm about to inventory the car if it's in there. I'm going to go deal with all this stuff and I will give you a call back. >> Appreciate it. >> All right. Thanks, sir. Yeah, it happened right. >> So, the missing person that is that was issued on this tag is the owner of that vehicle. >> They're thinking he did something with the dude. >> Oh, no. So, they're thinking that he >> um >> they're trying to account for him and they cannot account for him and he is not in the vehicle. >> Well, he's is he the trunk? >> I don't know. But, uh >> well, let's go check that. The owner of that said that if a gun was stolen like two or three days prior to all this happening. So if there is a gun in there, it could possibly be what? >> I we didn't even search it cuz you mean you're here. It was like rolling up. So >> u >> So I told them they're like that the metal stuff's hot or whatever. So I told them when they gave us okay to take control of the car, don't touch anything. So >> right, >> they're just scanning it with a little heater when they get done. >> I would I would say wait till that gets to the Toyota. Yeah, >> let the investigators, BCI, whoever do whatever they need to do with it, but probably should look in the trunk before we do that. >> At this point, investigators began gathering more information about the case. However, they were surprised by how openly the suspect described what had allegedly taken place. >> You don't need to look for no gun cuz it ain't no gun. If you find his body, you going to find the hammer with a hammer. Like, you got to find the body. >> I'm just being mean. And I appreciate it. >> But like I said, she's seen it. That's why >> you him with a hammer. >> Yeah. >> Where's he at? >> I mean, you already aditt. You're already admitting to >> in Statesboro. That's all. He in Statesboro. >> He's in Statesboro from where you're from in Georgia. >> Oh, hey. Hey. He just admitted to him with a hammer. >> Oh, >> really? >> Yeah. He said he's in Statesboro, Georgia. >> Statesboro, Georgia. >> Yep. Call Georgia back. >> Yeah. >> We're going to go check this truck and make sure he ain't in there. >> Dude. Holy. I'm on camera, by the way. This is crazy. Yeah, I did. And he just admitted to a dude. Yeah, the dude that [music] drove this car, he's the one that's missing. And I said, "Well, where's he at?" He says, "You don't have to look in the car. You don't need to look for gun." Because they thought a gun was stolen. He said, "I with a hammer." He I ran him out. Nothing came up in NCIC. Nothing. I talked to Georgia. They don't have anything on him. They're just suspecting him of it. But I mean, he submitted to everything. So I talked to him and I was like, "Who is this girl?" He said, "I kidnapped her from Georgia >> because she's seen something and I didn't want her telling." He said this before I even read him his rights. I put him in the car. So after he said all that, I read him his rights and I've been asking him questions after that. >> Unsure whether the vehicle contained crucial evidence, officers began a thorough search in an attempt to locate items that were still missing. All right. He said he's still in Georgia. He didn't give a whereabouts. He just said a county. He's still in Georgia. And I said, "Where's that out?" And that's all he said from there. Who checked the trunk? >> Yes. >> Do you see a hammer or anything? >> We didn't search for that. We were just making sure that there wasn't a body. >> Yeah, >> we didn't we didn't do it. >> Figured detail search would be done. whatever gets to the we just didn't want to make sure that there >> somebody tied up back here. >> You'd probably be safe to skip the inventory and get a search warrant on this.

After this, authorities found the victim's father, who confirmed she was never meant to be [music] in that car, to begin the process of reuniting her with her family back in Georgia. Next, when police received a call from a victim who was being brutally attacked while pleading for help, officers did not expect to learn that the suspect was the victim's own son. On May 26th, 2025, police received a disturbing 911 call from a son who said he just found his father badly injured at home. >> Del City 911. >> Yeah, D City. Hey, we got a accident over here. I think it's accident. You come check it out. >> What's happening? >> I don't know.

Okay. >> What's that? >> What is your name? >> Uh, Jack, Mississippi, USA. >> Here on Earth. >> The call suddenly cut off, but moments later, the man rang back with a chilling question for the dispatcher. Dispatcher, whoever you are, >> I'm sorry. >> Say left or right, and this will be on you. >> Question is just left or left or right. >> I need to know where the bleeding is coming from. >> Hey, left or right? >> No, sir. I need to know where the bleeding is coming from. >> If you don't say left or right, if you don't answer in 3 seconds, I'm going to hang up and I'm assuming you said left. >> Okay. >> What is happening? It's okay. Just tell somebody. All right. Say left or right. >> No, sir. I need to know where the bleeding is coming from. >> You heard that right. The man demanded the dispatcher choose between his alleged victim's left or right foot, presumably his next target. Moments later, police arrived at the scene, but didn't appear to be in any rush to go inside. >> Entering the apartment building. Clear. >> Police department. >> It's locked. >> Open the door. >> We can't. It's locked. Come unlock it. Police waited for over 3 minutes outside with no answer at the door despite knowing a man inside was in need of urgent help.

Officers discovered Eric's 63-year-old father who was quickly rushed to the hospital and against all odds survived. With him in medical care, their focus shifted to Eric, who was without question one of the most unsettling individuals they had ever faced. There's nothing guest outside. >> 34, >> huh? >> Way older than that. >> Yeah. >> 40. >> Way older than that. >> 50. >> Is your auntie the >> 70? Don't stop neither. We'll get to it.

Hey Edward, stop. >> On March 16th, 2023, officers from North Miami Beach received a call. A man was holding a woman hostage in a public place with a large machete.

Please. >> The standoff was reaching a breaking point. Officers tried to calm the suspect, but he appeared to be spiraling. His behavior erratic and unpredictable. Tension escalated as the victim's anxiety was becoming more apparent. Her voice trembled, her fear unmistakable. The situation could turn catastrophic. The suspect was identified as Edward and the victim is Lana. >> Put it down. >> It was less lethal. >> No touch. >> Don't touch him, please. >> I'm putting it away. >> Okay.

Right >> at this point, the Edward suspect all the time demanded that community representatives come to the scene. The requests kept coming one after another. When officers refused, his frustration shifted, quickly turning into visible rage. >> I don't know if I was on the highway. >> Okay. If it doesn't matter if you're on the highway, we can take care of the situation. >> Okay. So, I know. >> Huh? >> Okay. Listen to me. Watch Crossfire. Yeah. All right. Listen.

Come on. >> We're not going outside. >> COME ON. >> WE'RE NOT GOING OUTSIDE. >> With negotiations progressing, officers were having difficulty talking with Edward. He was completely unstable. Like was under the influence of some substances. For a moment, it appeared officers were gaining control. The tension seemed to ease slightly. But then, in a small outburst of desperation, Lana could trigger a reaction that sent Edward's aggression spiraling once again. >> I can't I couldn't understand you. Listen, we got to get this situation fixed, okay? >> And it's not going to fix it by you sitting here like this. Do you understand me? We need to sit fix the situation.

Edward. Come on. Cuff him. I got him. Cuff him. Medical on him. >> The suspect was on the floor marked by gunfire. Lana was visibly frozen in shock, overwhelmed by fear. The tension had already left a lasting impact on everyone trapped there. >> Check her for injuries. Check her for bullets. I don't care. Check if you need adrenaline. I need I need medical rescue. >> Gloves. >> I don't know. >> I think I didn't. >> You guys bleeding out the head. >> Quick and fast. >> Gloves. >> Williams. We're 55.
