It Was a Regular Night Until… | National Geographic

as I turn onto Laurel Street I couldn’t
believe what I was seeing officer
Reynolds is in Reverse and he’s coming
back right past me
I see the suspect wheel over towards me
and he fires one round at me I couldn’t
believe it I was like these guys are
shooting at us so this is the you know
this is it I emptied my first magazine
13 bullets in 8 seconds before this
moment I’ve never had to fire my gun
and I got on the air and I said watch
I’m pumpin at the driver’s seat and put
it in drive they jumped out and tried to
use the vehicle as cover but again the
the rounds were hitting off my cruiser
he’s gonna get me with one of these
shots so I made the decision I jumped
out officer Reynolds he sees me and he
jumps over I can’t believe that this is
happening I could see a second suspect
lighting what I thought was a wick or
something and then throwing it towards
us almost looked like a branch had a big
heavy branch but when it hit ping ping
ping and I’m looking at it
the house shook this house actually
shook I said we’re gonna die here
tonight it shook my eyeballs sideways I
had to shake my head to try to clear my
head
