The only two officers in the building, apparently.


Suddenly_Something

She also just casually walks out while the other cop is lying on the ground. Then decides to lightly jog after the dude. What type of response is that?


ReneDiscard

This is how poorly-trained and unprepared for bad situations the majority of police are.


TheSonOfDisaster

Yeah and then they will stamp their feet and scream if you even mention that they need more training. I love that they want to keep the status quo so fucking badly. No change in training. No change to qualified immunity. No personal practice insurance. No limits to civil asset forfeiture. No change to how internal affairs work. No demilitarization. No ubiquitous body cams/a third party to manage the recordings. No physical fitness minimums. Just stronger police unions. More money. More politicians that are afraid to act against the police, sometimes out of fear of violence. Saying you are for police reform can sink your political career. More gangs in police. It's a joke really. All of it .


AbleObject13

And when they finally acquiesce and take training, it's more of that warrior training that teaches them to fear everyone and be ready to shoot anyone at anytime


TheSonOfDisaster

Most likely yes, and that is a huge part of the problem. Killology trainings and the manner of which police are disgusted and afraid of the general public is a huge issue . Militarization of police is not just about 50 cal rifles and mrap vehicles being delivered directly to counties with 2000 people, it's also a militant perspective on the general public. They don't see themselves as the public. They are police, and over there are civilians. They see themselves as agents of order against a sea of enemies that are all around them... like an insurgency no? Anyone can kill you at any time... so better kill them first. But of course police operate with none of the ROE, or enhanced training in firearms use, safety and storage, and accuracy retests that the military regularly undergoes.


Fireengine69

Yes deescalation doesn’t seem to be taught at all, by most academy’s now days, there’s is the appropriate use of force, and then there’s not, seen ridiculous shit while I worked as a Medic/ff for a public safety Dept..


iBeenie

You actually have to take a test to prove you're not very smart in order to become a US police officer.


37Lions

And she just starts to run at the guy? And the cop is like ‘oh by the way, he has my gun and yeah he’s shooting at you now’… Edit: Lots of hate here for ‘female’ cops… wtf is wrong with y’all?


TWFH

"He got my gun" *female cop doesn't take hers out in response to hearing this* Is this Reno 911?


The-Rev

> "He got my gun" Well let me just take a look and see *bang* Yeah, he still has it, just making sure


MyHusbandIsGayImNot

Watching Reno 911 the only thing that feels unreal is how often they try to deescalate situations.


PeelingOffMyFace

Lol or my favorite when the needlessly escalate the situation by pulling their fire arm before they have even identified the threat and begin firing blindly into the wind. Lollolololol


lePickles1point0

No, that parts fairly realistic.


ZannX

This is like one of the few times it's ok for cops to use their guns and they fuck it up.


SubZero0xFF

Dude was not black.


rudieboy

I saw a video where a white guy and cop square off on the side of a interstate. Both have guns out. The cop tries to talk the guy down for 2 minutes before the white guy hops back in his truck and takes off. The entire time watching it all I could think of was if the guy hadn't been white. I mean he let an armed guy take off.


cammyk123

Yea, you see your fellow cop on the ground bleeding all over the place and your response is to run at the guy with no gun drawn?

mofongoDorado

Spencey7

The cop used his hands like a video game character at the start


FragileEclipse

The cop was fighting the way I fight in my dreams


ansefhimself

I would never tell anyone I got pistol whipped by a Chubby White Man in a Sun hat

I want to know what was said. That dude came in PISSED, something tells me that cop did something he shouldn't have to dude or someone dude cares about. The fact they cut out dudes audio is sus af

These fat asses are so out of shape what are we paying them for?!?! ...& we're expecting them to take care of us when we need them the most. Civilians should take this chubby white boy as an example, & do what he did regularly, just to help keep our police force in shape. If you're incapable of doing the job, leave & make way for someone who can. JEEZ! The fat, incapable, squiggly blue line!🤦‍♂️


Plus-Swimmer-5413

They aren’t required to protect civilians in those at need situations.. even if they are hired by schools to protect the children.. they aren’t required to do so


BudRock420

Maybe there is a good reason this cop is on front desk duty


temujin94

The whole thing played out like a Borat sketch. The awkward ass fight between the two at the start, then at the end I was almost expecting the guy to shout awowewa in between the groans.


likemyhashtag

The first thing I thought of was that this looks like Reno 911. Especially when that female cop slowly walked into view without a care in the world.

literall_bastard

Why 90% of us police officers are so fat and unprepared for physical confrontation?


[deleted]

Cause they're used to kicking the shit out of ppl in handcuffs or ganging up on them.


CrackHeadRodeo

> Cause they're used to kicking the shit out of ppl in handcuffs or ganging up on them Yap. They operate in packs. 1v1 is not a situation they like. That's why they kill so many innocent people out of "fear".


[deleted]

Because 90% have a desk job


Grabbsy2

This is the real reason. That guy is a glorified security guard alone at the front desk of a police station at night. Who would have expected some random guy to come up and start fighting? I'd be caught off guard, too (I'm an unarmed security guard).


[deleted]

Yep. People don’t realize how many cops solely do paperwork in places like courthouses, DA’s offices, and of course police departments. These people have to do something when they get too old/out of shape to give pursuit or effectively detain criminals.


Alpaca_Empanada

When they’re not standing around listening to women and children die they’re too busy sitting around falsifying evidence and making up stories.

GO4Teater

They stay as far away from the front as possible because they hate helping the public.


promaster9500

serr7

The city i used to live in claimed there was not enough money for renovating the primary and elementary schools but there sure was enough to build a brand new, and much much bigger, police station (and they kept emphasizing the holding cells being able to take more people??)


Xzackly-1

he was waiting for it to be over so he can just write a report about it.


TuddyCicero86

I've seen teenagers defend themselves better than that. Dude even grabs the suspects throat instead of protecting his side arm!


woodiegutheryghost

It’s impressive because cops should have a level iii retention holster. Though if it was a snap retention the cop could have undid as the guy charged him but didn’t get a chance to draw.


TuddyCicero86

Looks like at 40 seconds, the suspects right arm is extended.. probably gripping the holster as the gun appears soon after. Absolutely nuts.


Neither-Luck-9295

When it only takes like 6 weeks of training to become a cop, this is what you get.

I know I can't believe they didn't just start shooting when they came up on the vehicle.


Puzzleheaded-Rich-51

The level of incompetence in this video is astounding. Both of these individuals should never have been allowed to become a officer.


CitizenCue

The most competent part is that they somehow apprehended him without shooting. If that dude was black his truck would’ve been riddled with holes.


[deleted]

exited the truck without his hands up too, really surprised they didnt light him up

literally behind his back and obscured from vision. as an armed suspect who just shot at two cops.

Murky_Sock_6943

I think that the first cop could use some more training.


i_forgot_my_sn_again

Reading the article it says he has over 30 years of service so he's at least 50. He's probably just chilling until retirement. Thought nights at the desk would be easy until then.


141571671

I said the same thing. Will probably get downvoted but he definitely needs more training.


Responsible-Lime-284

cop was using a 30 year old dasa hammerfired safety decocker beretta 92fs gun which probably saved his life cause bad guy took it from him and didnt know how to use it immediately cause nowadays everyone uses striker fired glock clones so badguy probably kept pulling the trigger over and over again and didnt know what a slide mounted safety is and that a double action trigger weighs 14 lbs


datboiofculture

I once got disarmed but the fool couldn’t even locate the ramrod to drive the musket ball home and by the time he had figured out the maynard tape primer the dragoons had begun to charge to reclaim my position and the scoundrel absconded with my rifle. Tally ho lads.

Good odle 92FS saves the day…..


noiserr

Self defense aficionados usually dog on it for being a bit dated and heavy (they prefer Glocks and other polymer guns). Even the safety on it is criticized since the prevailing opinion is that a gun shouldn't be on safety so that it can be used immediately in case of an emergency. But this cop owes his life to it now.


ThisOnePlaysTooMuch

Well aren’t you a scary fella. That’s some pretty cool niche info on the situation. I was wondering what the fuck saved his life when dude tried to blast.

[deleted]

Nobody's going to see this but this is exactly why all of my handguns are hammers. First, I wanna actually see and feel the decocker. Second, handguns are super deadly bc they are (usually) an automatic suicide button. I don't ever wanna think about someone using my guns to kill themselves on a stupid impulse. I have exactly one striker fire and I keep it trigger locked. It costs me nothing to train with the hammer. I just don't understand the prevalence of strikers. I'm old (40) but I've never had someone explain the cost benefit of safety vs utility in a way that makes any sense. Every video I see of some dope shooting themselves in the foot/thigh/ass while holstering is a striker, usually a glock. Hammer is reliable. Hammer is simpler. Hammer is good. If you actually train and practice firearm safety the hammer becomes an extension of your thumb. I don't wanna get lost in the weeds but I feel like the entire motivation behind strikers was to sell more guns to people who can't properly operate a shoelace.


[deleted]

This is similar to video where a person needing mental help approaches police station and asks to speak to Chief from counter window. The officer says take appointment & return. The man insists. The officer calls him mental. Man tells him not to call him mental. Cop calls him mental again. Man goes near door, cop goes there too. Man again tell him not to call him mental. Cop again calls him mental. Man bashes cop. Cop pulls out his gun but is still attacked by man. Other cops arrive and he is arrested. https://youtu.be/p85msu5W3wc?feature=shared


jakedeighan

yeah I saw that, dude was having a bad day then the cop calls him mental lol reaaaal professional


WhySoConspirious

I honestly blame the cop. You're supposed to be the levelheaded one who is trained in deescalation and you obviously can't do what you're paid to do. Yes, this guy is in the wrong for attacking, but that cop's eye for judgement is fucked.


tokyo_engineer_dad

"You should de-escalate." "Delegate this, I'll elevate your face with my fists, escalate." Idiocracy was a documentary.

bigreidsy

American cops are some of the most untrained, unqualified cops on the planet man, how do you even let that happen? This is just from what I've seen but half the time I see a video of an American police officer in an altercation it's like they have no idea what to do in the slightest, half the time they either strike or fumble about trying to restrain an aggressor and that's if they don't just immediately shoot them. I'm not trying to be a cunt I'm just saying that there needs to be some sort of mandatory martial arts training revolving around restraining someone instead of just flailing about like an 8 year old in a scrap at the playground

Hillbilly415

A week of martial arts training would still be longer than what most agencies spend on firearms training annually


bigreidsy

Then make it a consistent requirement, I mentioned in another comment that an easy way to do that is to make a mandatory physical test that needs to be passed at least annually, but there's other ways you could handle it. Is it really a big ask to say "cops should be able to handle situations without resorting to lethal force or in a situation where lethal force isnt possible"?


Miss-Figgy

>make a mandatory physical test that needs to be passed at least annually [80% of cops are overweight](https://www.cbsnews.com/texas/news/fbi-80-percent-of-police-officers-are-overweight/). In fact, a [handcuffed perpetrator was able to outrun NYPD cops, because they were too fat to keep up with him](https://www.syracuse.com/state/2018/02/report_overweight_cops_making_nypd_the_fattest_police_department.html).

MrNUGZZ

Officer needs more training


truthfullyVivid

So, he walked into their home and assaulted and attempted murder on an innocent guy? Suspend him with pay.


Virus1x

I don't know if anyone will understand, the cop didn't shoot him which he could have for what he'd already done when refusing orders and advancing. He wanted to go hands on so they could beat the shit out of him while affecting an arrest. You see it and honestly... although most cops suck. I'm for it in this situation. He attacked a cop standing in a police station, then took his gun and pistol whipped him several times and then fired at cops too. I'd be pretty fucking pissed myself. Also seemed like the guy was desperately trying to suicide by cop.


Upbeat_Grapefruit427

I thought it looked more personal. The guy drove in with conviction and the cop was waiting for him. No sound on the body camera. Cop was defensive. Guy bolts when someone else shows up and surrenders. Looks more personal between him and that cop


BMoney2103

Audio doesn’t activate on Axon BWC until the 30-second mark. Also, there’s an ‘audio pause / off’ feature which might have been hit during the fight. Or, the audio might’ve been redacted for various reasons prior to public release….All possibilities


VulnerableFetus

I've noticed the Axon cameras audio don't start until the 30 second mark but why is that? It seems like important information to have. (I mean for all arrests, not just this one)


Evolveddinosaur

It’s because the camera is constantly filming. I think it’s called “rolling memory” or something like that. When they press the record button, it saves the previous 30 seconds of video. When we hear the audio come in, that’s when they actually “turned on their cameras”, but in reality they’re always filming. It’s like how PlayStation/Xbox get their videos


VulnerableFetus

That makes sense to me. I wish there were the same type of rolling audio footage where it also records the previous 30 seconds of audio so nothing is missed (or a less of a chance of being missed at least). Idk if it's feasible but maybe they should activate their cameras when they get the call, before they get there (whenever humanly possible, possible of course) so nothing is missed. It would be good to have radio traffic for evidence as well. I don't understand the PlayStation/Xbox thing but that's because I've strictly been playing Crash Team Racing since 1999 lol. I now play it on my adult son's old PS3 I got him for his 7th birthday so the extent of my knowledge with that, aside from the cost and amount of gaming consoles I've bought over the span of 15 years for my kids, is turning it on and navigating to the games where I find my CTR.


Virus1x

I mean let's say you wanted to die, what's the fastest way? Walk into a police station, take a cops gun, assault said cop. Then shoot at said cops. If it was personal he wouldn't have fired at the female office saying hey stop. Then getting out ignoring commands to get down and doing the same advancing you did to the last cop.


[deleted]

I think this video is a perfect example of why we need a higher standard for cops. I mean how do u let some drunk dude walk up to u and start beating u with ur own gun. Then the other cop broke his fucking finger while arresting the drunk dude, while a whole team of cops were there. Train them. Make them pass a physical and written exam at least twice a year.
