have time to even have that oh no moment. it just happened so fast. watch again as officer decarlo gets out of the way right before the yellow locomotive slams into the car. with the woman still inside. i m watching the train it seemed like in slow motion push this car like a toy down the track. as a police officer, we re there to help people. regardless if they ve done something good or bad, i m still there to make sure she s okay. so i felt kind of helpless once the other train hit her. hearing that combination of the horn and the brakes on the train squeaking and the metal being crushed, basically my heart stopped. because i was convinced that we was going to find her dead. the train slows as the emergency brakes kick in. and when officer decarlo heads down the track, he is shocked by what he finds. to see that she was still alive was a miracle, to be
unit along with u.s. marshals. i remember asking the question, document me to take the lead? he said, yeah, take the lead, we re the marked unit, let s go. take the lead? yeah, take the [ bleep ] lead. that s all i needed to hear from that point on. this suspect had no points, no limits. he didn t care about anybody. he did everything in the world he could to get away from us. you can t see it in the dash cam video but the officer spots something that raises the stakes. he s picked up a rifle or something. when i saw the suspect pick up the rifle, my worst fears had come true. this is about to go bad. stand by, stand by. he s firing. speeding down the highway, the suspect blasts out his back window and hits the top of the cruiser s windshield. me being cap at any obvious i said, hey, he s firing at us. which i don t know why i said that because deputy mcclain was in the car with me, he knew he was firing at us. at that point in time dep
here. we re back now northbound on 377. ox, we re going to make another u-turn, go back southbound on 377. soon the chase heads into a hotel parking lot. well, we re making our way to the parking lot here. as the suspect drives on the sidewalk, a pursuing unit is forced to drive backwards at one point to keep him in his sights. okay, we re working our way back to business 377, back toward downtown. up the road, the suspect encounters more heavy traffic. with little room to maneuver, the hyundai plows into the back of a stopped car. units converge on the smoking vehicle. okay, they got him stopped. we re at the courthouse downtown. the suspect is able to slip away, but it s becoming apparent the car is losing some of its horsepower. the car, he did cause his vehicle some damage. even though it was still running good, i think it caused enough a short time later his car finally died. the hyundai coasts along.
honest with you. i thought by the second time that there s no way that a person could sustain these two horrible collisions and walk away. she s very, very lucky to be alive. and so is officer decarlo. teamwork in law enforcement is key. lieutenant benson works for the woods cross police department, i work for the north salt lake police department. but regardless what agency we work for, we re partners for each other and we look out for each other. and end of the day, we want to make sure we all get home to our families. coming up a gun battle. at 100 miles an hour. i knew that it only ended two ways. one, he d wreck out and survive, or two, he d be shot and killed. when caught on camera: dash cam diaries continues. i ve smoked a lot
a daily basis. but i feel that if i go out and do my traffic stops and talk about it and not let him beat me by holding me back, it makes me feel a lot better and know that i can actually move on with my life and that i can conquer what happened. coming up i knew deputy griffin was right behind him as the car crashed. i actually had thought he killed my brother. when caught on camera crashes dash cam diaries continues. yeah, 10 gigantic gigs. for $80 a month. and $15 per line. more data than ever. for more of what you want. on the network that s #1 in speed, call, data, and reliability. so you never have to settle. $80 a month. for 10 gigs. and $15 per line. stop by or visit us online. and save without settling. only on verizon. nobody s hurt,but there will when ystill be pain.new car.
