object in his hand. He just hit him on
the side of the head and they go down on
the sidewalk. Okay. As they go down on
the sidewalk, Michael takes action and
he's trying to subdue this
individual and they were the two of them
were uh struggling to get his hands to
cuff him. And I reached down and I said,
"Michael, what do you want me to do?
because I don't want to take action if I
don't need to. So, I reached down cuz
the guy was swinging his legs and
kicking in a manner to try to continue
to hit the guy. Yes. To get away. And
so, I reached down and I grabbed his
legs. Okay. Okay. And the uh partner
said, "Hey, you have my leg, too." I
said, "Okay." Okay. Release his leg. I'm
holding the suspect's legs. Okay. while
they take him in custody. Okay, just so
you know, I'm retired, 30 years where

"Okay, what do you want me to do?" Cuz I
know today's climate and everything. I
just want to make sure that I do the
right thing. So, when you saw the
suspect's actions right after the
initial hit, would you say that his
actions were still aggressive? Like he
was attempting to hurt the officers? He
was resisting trying to, you know, he

wasn't following their instructions, you

of
diseases? Yes or no?

to give us a sample of your
blood. Got it. You what? You already got
it. We don't got it.
Footage from the Facebook live itself
shows the suspect setting up a camera,
approaching the officers by first
ducking behind their squad car, and then
rushing at the officers and immediately
striking one of them with a brick in his
hand multiple times. The other officer,
he bit and nearly gouged out his eye.
The suspect was identified as
29-year-old William Mcclit. He was
charged with resisting an officer with
violence, aggravated battery on a law
enforcement officer with a weapon,
depriving an officer of means of
protection, and attempted first-degree
murder of a law enforcement officer with
a weapon. Reports indicate while in
jail, Mcclit bragged about his attempt
to try and take the officer's gun during
the attack. Authorities later discovered
a previously recorded video on MLH's
phone where he said, "I'm going to kill
him on live." This established
premeditation and his intention to kill.
Mcclit represented himself at trial and
opened with, "I didn't do it." And the
evidence was tampered with. That was all
he said. The jury returned with a guilty
verdict within an hour and Mcclit was
promptly sentenced to life in prison.
What are you doing? Why are you in the
road? Why are you in the road?
Okay, you better you better get her
before she gets hit. Kill me if you
walk. You walk up on me, I'm going to I
dare you to kill me. I dare you. Back
up. You're going to get I promise you
this. Officer, you can't do that.
Officer, Officer, you can't do that.
Officer, you can't do that. Officer, you
can't do that. Officer, you can't do
that. Officer, get on the ground. Get on
the ground. You can't do that. Stop.
Stop. You can't do that.

She's fighting. Put your hand. She's
fighting. You would die. Put your hand
back.
In your name. You would die.
I got I got her
right. The
whole right.
Officers are currently attempting to get
the suspect in custody in the middle of
an extremely busy highway, making this
even more dangerous for everyone
involved.
[Applause]
Y ready to die. Are you ready to die?
I got her left.
Let's get a quick search. And then let's
get her in a car. Whose car is this
right here? Let me go out there right
now.
Hello. Amen. Amen. Amen.
Do not kick.
You understand?
There's literally no reason to be
kicking us right now. You break my arm
and God won't kill you tonight. You
[ __ ]
I'm going to kill you. Hey, somebody get
on the other side. Get ready for her to
try with the door. You
might know everything you love will
[ __ ] die. Do you hear me? Don't
you

quick.
Someone grab
Come on, get in.
In there. Whole window's down. Somebody
in there watching her the whole time.
Yeah, she's secure going off camera.
Dude, are you all right? She She trying
to take your This suspect was charged
with battery on a law enforcement
officer and assault on a law enforcement
officer, totaling a bond of
$2,600. She is innocent unless proven
guilty in a court of law. Well, this guy
actually hits a cop in the head with a
brick. To me, that takes planning and
hatred. And when it's stream live for
everyone to see, it's not just an
ambush, it's a performance. In this
first case, this guy didn't just want to
hurt cops. It seemed like he wanted to
show off while he was doing it. And this
is every cop's worst nightmare because
you can't even brace yourself for it.
You just have to react. If the attack
wasn't enough, but the whole refuses to
have his blood drawn is actually
concerning to say the least. Because in
Florida, unless exigent circumstances
exist, which I would say that this is,
police must always obtain a search
warrant when they're reasonably able to
do so. Otherwise, the blood test
evidence may be rendered inadmissible in
court. And this wasn't just about
physical wounds, it's about what
happened after the situation ended
because we have two injured cops. And
imagine being that officer who had to
wait for a blood test to come back.
Scary. So, the question is, if a suspect
gets blood on an officer during an
assault, should they be legally required
to submit to a blood test? I definitely
think so. So, in this next one, this is
a classic case of why cops only get
seconds to figure out what's actually
going on. Cuz I've had crazy sight jobs
like this where I'd walk up and try to
help and the next thing you know, I'm in
a fight cuz sometimes you only have
seconds to respond just like this
officer. Now, this woman could be in
crisis because she's in the street
daring him to end her life. And all this
officer said was, "Why are you in the
road?" But you know what sets people off
a lot? The police uniform. And I never
understood why. Now, this could have
ended much worse. And for a moment, it
felt like it might. But instead of
responding to violence with more
violence, these officers kept their calm
and did what they were trained to do,
and that's get her into custody safely.
But I do have a question for you.
