Caller: “It’s a black Mercedes.â€
Dispatcher: “No this is Patrick…â€
If he was white they wouldve just tased him /s
Either this dude is stupid or suicide by cop!
He got what he wanted
COps these days shoot to kill not hurt
So the cop didnt have his gun drawn already, even though the call was about a crazy guy w a gun? Was it the neighborhood that put him at ease? 🤔😌
If a person pulls a gun on me I just shoot them Why not whats plan B
Oh he ded
He got his wish
Classic cops
Damn… that cop hesitated and backed up; cop would probably be dead if that lunatic had a real gun.
Tottaly called for
Completely drugged out. Don't do drugs.
Caller: It’s a Mercedes SL-60, AMG racing model with dealer plates, moving westwards on highway 111
Dispatcher: Oh, yeah, I hear you, extra cheese it is on your pizza
Love this format of explaing movement! Would love to see more of these in the future!!
Quentin Tarantino really had a death wish huh?
I guess he wanted to die today 🤣
My dumbass would reload that gun on first fire , CODMW
2 John 87? But I'm sure I distinctly heard him say "1 Adam-12"?
2 John 87 ain't nowhere in the Bible either.
I really wish there was a way to outlaw making such replicas of fake guns – like if they were all mandated to be neon orange or green. As it is, any idiot can get one of these and doesn't realize in the split second an officer sees it, it looks too damn real. Or maybe they do.
You don't need to empty a magazine in order to eliminate the threat ffs. The guy clearly had issues.
Shoot well
That officer is lucky the guy wanted to die and the gun was fake, cause boi that reaction speed woulda got you SMOKED
Kind police always reply on requests positively
I dont say this much but…. Nice shooting!
It was a suicide, poor guy, who knows what really happend to his life. Goodbye Royce 🙁
I am sure there will be those who blame the cops for doing wrong. Cops are heroes and this cop has to live with the fact he killed a guy with a BB gun but had no choice.
"End my existence" he got what he wanted. I'm definitely gonna get help before I get to this point or ever drag anyone else into my shit hope yall are well nd get help if you need it cause I know I do but definitely prolonging it for a bit
That guy had his gun out for a good amount of time before the deputy managed to shoot. Lucky he was only trying to commit suicide or that deputy would be dead.
Dirtball will not be missed.
If that would have been a black or brown person, he would have been shot way before he reached into is coat, and shouted just shoot me.
His crime: dressing like it's 1999.
"End My Existence"
Existential Crisis Confirmed
Existence Execution
Why do people always make fun of the operator asking so many questions? Officers are already on their way, so why not try to get as many details as posible untill they get there?
seems like cop assisted suicide tbh
Dispatch explaining the vehicle the suspect was driving:
The cops: "Anyways, so I started blasting-"
Man he sounds like jet the dessert fox
Police is cancer
I hope he's at peace. And the officer who had to shoot him.
That Mercedes might be the dream car of the dispatcher
