It is incredibly easy to forget that the officers in these videos have absolutely no idea what is waiting for them on the other side of the glass. For them, there is no such thing as a "routine" call. In this compilation, you are getting a front-row seat to four separate incidents where a completely normal interaction erupts into a violent, life-or-death ambush in a fraction of a second. From sudden, unprovoked knife attacks stopped only by ballistic vests, to a suspect launching a potentially lethal biological attack right into a deputy's face—watch exactly what happens when the badge suddenly becomes a target. Which of these four ambushes do you think was the most unpredictable? Drop your answer in the comments below.
