Former police officer here, I totally agree. Medals of valor are generally reserved for military and police officers going above and beyond, life saving, etc. This civilian deserves it regardless. Most people in this day and age walk right past injured or dying people, i have seen it time and time again.Good to see a civilian going this far above and beyond deserves any and all recognition and awards one can get. What a brave guy! Maybe he should have been a cop ;)
thebatman101069 he was unknown for about 5 months...he had to wrap his head around the fact he took a life....he calls himself many things but not a hero...super humble man...
I am a retired police officer. Frequently seasoned trained police officers become excited in this type of situation. The civilian radio procedure was perfect. He was clam, clear, and to the point and did not tie up the radio with unnecessary rambling. He took prompt, effective, and appropriate action given the situation he was faced with. He deserves our respect and any award that DPS and the state of Arizona can bestow on this hero.
@@mysterj1 as a police dispatcher, I couldn’t agree more. If something happens to one of my guys out there, God forbid, I just hope that they’re in the vicinity of someone as brave and as swift as this man was here. Help our brother out, immediately tell me what happened, tell me EXACTLY where, and then sign up to join our agency because we could really use that kind of spirit out there these days and we’ll take all the backup we can get. Just phenomenal!
The civilian good samaritan shooter is actually an ex-con who served his time and turned his life around. The only reason he was able to save this trooper's life was because he went through the long and complicated process to have his 2A rights restored. This man wanted no media attention and to my knowledge the only interview he ever did was at the police press conference at their request. He didn't speak much, but he told the media that he has a past and asked the media to leave his past in his past. Amazingly, the media did what he asked. I mention this because it's important to know that people can change if they want it bad enough. This man could have capitalized on this, but instead he just asked to be left alone. Now you know why you don't hear more about this humble man who saved a life in a high profile event.
Thank you fellow citizen for being brave and saving the trooper. Also thanks for saving the taxpayers money with your administration of instant justice.
At the two minute mark you have a civilian on the officers mic clearly stating he has been shot and is in serious condition. How do you ask again towards the end if he was struck by a car or shot??? Very grateful the officer is ok and for the civilian passer by/guardian angel. Police are the most underrated heroes around.
I edited the quite parts when no one was talking but nothing else she probably wasn't thinking that he could've possible been shot most officer are injured by vehicles when working crashes not being shot.
I imagine she was double checking to make sure she wasn't just assuming it was a shooting. When the other officer asked if it was a shooting or vehicle collision, in my mind I thought shooting, but then couldn't remember if he had said the word or I was assuming it. Also, a chance that after first transmission at 1:50, they were talking to each other in dispatch trying to figure what the heck happened or how to respond. One thing I've noticed on a lot of these, though, is that dispatch always seems to take forever to respond to a frantic help call....(or when a civilian). They should be trained not to hesitate and immediately sound an alert tone and say the last known location of the officer...that gets units rolling...and THEN ask for follow-up details.
I am a former police officer and Sergeant of uniformed patrol and I also worked part time as a paramedic for 8 years. It's important to know what injuries you are dealing with, however even in a civilian is hit, everyone one responds. Dispatchers are trained to keep trying to ascertain the condition of the victim, civilian or officer while the fire department is on it's way if it is possible or practical.
It also prompts officers at the scene to check their mikes and those around them. You can often zoom in on someone with an open mike. Most of you guys probably know that but there are many readers here that have never worked in public safety.
there's lots of POS's in the world that need to be air dropped by a C-130 into Yemen. Especially the Russian trolls on this site working out of Putin's troll farm in St. Petersburg. This is a proven fact ladies and gents!
we all hope we never find our self in a situation this horrific but if we do, I hope we all react in the same manner, not all police officers are bad and not everyone they pull over or stop to help are bad but they always have to be prepared, I would like to know what others civilians would do if they find their selves in the same situation, it's hard to say what you would do, I carry my pistol in my car with me at all time, never pull your gun unless your ready to use it or they can take it away from you.
I have read all his comments, and eh seen again and again, all the reports about this case, I understand that everything is governed by laws and that apparently the correct thing is what this man did. I am a very close person to Leonardo Peñuelas Escobar; This man who died at the hands of Mr. Thomas Yoxall; I also had a family and was at the service of the military forces, as well as in a federal agency of our country (Mexico). I can say with certainty that he was a good man, that I made a decision to reach the USA in order to improve the Quality of life and of his family working. On receiving the news of his death and the way in which it happened, he leaves us with great incognitas, as a person who knows the protocols to protect and serve, this could have happened to him or to be the protagonist of such an act, Leonardo Peñuelas, Only ah is known as the individual addicted to illegal stay, but there is something behind this story that tell, do not want to reveal, even missing the statement of agent Trooper; Since in simple deduction, Leonardo Peñuelas had a lot of knowledge in arms and protocol of protection, and it has been commented that the shot in 2 occasions against the agent Trooper, then why it struck him? And being that he had a weapon because it did not affect the aggression of Thomas Yoxall? Apparently there is something else in this story that they do not want to tell, hopefully can clarify this fact, because when we received the body of Leonardo Peñuelas in Mexico, you could see traces on his forearms by sumicion. We do not believe that they have submitted the body or if?
This civilian deserves a medal of valor, or what ever is equal to give a civilian.
thebatman101069 I agree....

And kudos to the man to think to call for air evac straight off.

AND still considered the civilian at scene? That’s a man of heart right there.
Dispatcher did an amazing job, thank you for posting this.
No Problem thanks for watching!
This guy must’ve been in the military at one point. His radio etiquette is flawless.
1:50 Officer down call Be sure to give the video a thumbs up!!
Liked and sub!
Thanks I appreciate that!
ScannerAudio WTF?
ScannerAudio liked and subscribed
I'm not going to like because it was an officer down... I am going to like it because of the good Samaritans.

Those civilians better get awarded for that. Fucking outstanding.
Thank you fellow citizen for being brave and saving the trooper. Also thanks for saving the taxpayers money with your administration of instant justice.
Excellent job by all involved!
Excellent job by both civilians, eliminating the threat and working to save the trooper's life!
both civilians are heroes. my hats off to your gentlemen.
God bless our Police, Fire, Military Service Members and to our Good Samaritans! This world lacks of good people.
For just doing his job! He deserves better. Thank you for your service.
Always a great service. Thanks again!
Thank you for sharing this. I am using this audio for my Criminal Justice Program. Thank you WELL DONE!
What an intense job for all individuals involved. Good job guys!
That's great , I hope the Police Department Blesses this good Samaritan with a ticket to see the Cowboys and Packers game
The Jiu Jitsu Life DEFINITELY

That guy is an absolute hero. Absolute bad ass.
Arizona welcome for scanner God bless you guys
“good samaritan shoots suspect” yes doing gods work
that dispatcher acknowledged the civilian the first time he keyed up and advised that the trooper was SHOT!!!!
We support our law enforcement officers in Arizona.
I bet this dispatcher has more excitement ordering a pizza..straight up ICE. Promote above peers!
they probably know who that brave man was who came to the troopers aide. plenty of cameras and satellites available to identify
The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun!
"Check for an open mike"... if your mike is open, you're not going to hear dispatch telling you to check your mike...
Actually, the newer radios are capable of being talked over and receiving, even with an open mic. :)
It also prompts officers at the scene to check their mikes and those around them. You can often zoom in on someone with an open mike. Most of you guys probably know that but there are many readers here that have never worked in public safety.
@@JKRhodes Yep,!
actually shitbrick, if your handheld is stuck open you can hear the advisory over your car radio. thanks for your expertise though
4 DISLIKES? WTF IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE
there's lots of POS's in the world that need to be air dropped by a C-130 into Yemen. Especially the Russian trolls on this site working out of Putin's troll farm in St. Petersburg. This is a proven fact ladies and gents!
You can look at the thumbs down 2 ways. Maybe they were saying they "dislike" that an officer was shot. Don't jump to conclusions.
Civilian did a great job. I think he even started fire calling the scene secure lol.
we all hope we never find our self in a situation this horrific but if we do, I hope we all react in the same manner, not all police officers are bad and not everyone they pull over or stop to help are bad but they always have to be prepared, I would like to know what others civilians would do if they find their selves in the same situation, it's hard to say what you would do, I carry my pistol in my car with me at all time, never pull your gun unless your ready to use it or they can take it away from you.
Civilian did awesome job!
Is DPS Radio trunked? Sounds like some transmissions from other districts made it to this recording.
Justin Rhodes On broadcastify it mixs all the channels up.
Thanks for the info. Good to hear the call (mostly) from start to finish here.
Broadcastify gets feeds from volunteers" scanners. Usually monitoring multiple frequencies.
Linked your video to my video of the incident. Cheers!
That’ll get a response
INTENSE
I WANT TO HEAR SOME LIVE PHOENIX POLICE SCANNERS AUDIO IN THEIR AREA CITY TOWN :-)
YES!!
1:50
