And they basically tried to get the neighbor killed as well -- they were safe as long as they were in their own house, but taking them OUTSIDE and getting them in a car etc puts everyone in danger. I think the cops did everything they could to make this worse.
@@slamcrank I live in the area (lake co, where one of the responding swat teams was from), no one wants to be a cop because the crime rate is insanely high. I worked at a car dealership and we had 9 stolen cars in one night, and they were almost always stolen daily. It's crazy lol.
That cop just blasting away at the house is ridiculous too. Seconds later he's on the radio saying he doesn't have eyes on, so he's just firing blindly at the house. No idea if there are innocent bystanders in the property (they later find out he also has an adult son who lives with him) and could have easily hit his colleague standing in the porch. I know it's easy to criticise split-second decisions, but the point is this wasn't a split-second decision, he got behind a car and peeked out several times to fire blindly towards the house. Then his next bright idea is to "lay down fire," as if the other officer's only escape route isn't right through the fire he's going to be laying down. Just dumb. Luckily the other officer stuck on the porch seemed to have more sense.
@@TheQuantumPotato I’m sorry but if bullets are coming through that door way even if he doesn’t see suppressing fire towards them tends to make them take cover and stop shooting
@@traceyhatton9138 yeah um suppressing fire less than 60 degrees away from the direction of a stranded fellow officer, while you’re freaking out so much that you can’t even concoct a plan to sneak behind the porch and try to lift or break the window as an escape. Instead, he’s shouting that he’s going to start giving covering fire while Lindsey makes a run for it-presumptively through the line of fire? Oh and then they tossed a point blank flashbang at a limp body that had a gunshot wound to the head instead of just securing the gun and starting medical treatment. These officers couldn’t save a fucking word document, let alone a life.
Because he was trying to be quiet, dude could have gotten shot for his partners dumbass loudness. Then the partner proceeds to say he will lay fire down the only way lindsey can escape, and says to run out when he does so... Run out the very same way he would be shooting smh.

@georgesanford3719 congrats, you must be the only 1 out of the 39,000 viewers that supports the gunman. He got evicted so whether he likes it or not, the person who owns the house said "get out". Instead of doing that, he tried to murder the innocent people who were randomly assigned to remove him. Suddenly "don't infringe on peeps homes" doesn't sound so smart, eh?
Officer Lindsay saying, “Negative,” when the other officer told him to run out, after he would cover him, that was the best part of this. He was smart. And he was very calm. A smart man, not willing to take a foolish risk.
@@gunkanjima3408 how is he a sitting duck? He has concealment/cover and the angle advantage should the guy push the door. Staying calm and quiet until assistance came was the right thing to do if he had broken that window then the guy would know where he was and could just put rounds through the wall in his direction. Just because your stationary doesn’t mean you are a sitting duck bud, but panicking and making rash decisions does make you a target.
Im still confused on why he didnt go out the window behind him they clearly lift up like the standard window and when they suggested that to him all he did was just touch the blind like nah and think he wanted to be a bad ass
@@734millz - You can tell by his demeanor he is NOT wanting to be Badass, or else he would’ve ran out guns blazing. He’s calm and collected and trying to keep his life while his buddy flips out. Breaking the window would’ve given his position away further, and distracted him from holding the angle incase McGraw decided to push. Also I’m 90% sure porch windows like that don’t open up at all, and have no sliding mechanisms.
@@solarwolf1336 i was just talking shit with the bad ass comment stop being so tender…. but literally me and hundreds of other people in the comments looked right at the window and see the two sliding lock mechanism it’s literally the standard enclosed deck window bud he didnt need to break it they literally slide right up open like a bed room window, watch it how ever many more time you need to see he easily could’ve opened the window and got out while someone provide cover if needed, if he would’ve gotten shot just standing there the whole time trust they would’ve been wondering why tf didnt he go out the window
Ik I shouldn’t laugh at this but fuck me Lindsey being so nonchalant about being trapped, while his crack job backup team is learning how to use a shield is just 😭😭😭
EXACTLY!! This actually pissed me off to see this. The suspect may have never known the cop was stuck there in such a vulnerable position BUT NO they need half their department yelling out in the open that he’s trapped. If this wasn’t a case of a self inflicted gsw I think this could have ended so much worse
I really want to know how Chad went from a well liked extroverted dealership employee to a person getting evicted and shooting at officers then taking his own life in just three days, I mean what happened?
It definitely sounds like he fell down a conspiracy rabbit hole with the Turtle Island and Blackland US stuff. The eviction could've been seen to him as last ditch effort to become a martyr or maybe he just had nothing left to lose. I just wonder what was on all those phones he was going to destroy in the basement.
yeah sitting in a corner, keeping yourself fully endangered. thats the CQB specialist i went your like all the sheep's in the comments, just some info for this instance. he put himself in CRITICAL endangerment and over a long span of time, hes stuck, soft cover, and his position is 100% blown. its almost laughable how bad of position that he puts himself in and he wont even get himself out witch would lead to him being magnitudes safer even crossing open fire zone (door way). that's how bad being in that corner is, its THAT BAD but we now know he was in no danger at all, but... if there was danger, being in that corner over walking pass a shooting path, would be dozens of times safer then being wall bang or pushed on. repositioning is always the best move, especially in this cqb situation were is was only 4 feet away to being completely safe over him being 4 feet away from him being walled or pushed. also his partner should've ran back and yell at him and push his shit for staying in the corner, but he yelled and made dumb suggestions. no one acted, big problem
@@monkeebunz8580 sure he put himself in a shitty position, but he was ABSOLUTELY great at keeping cool in the situation. his partners failed him, thats why his position was known, and its literally not worth the risk crossing over the door when you have zero clue what could happen. sure, we know NOW that it was fine, but its always better to be safe than sorry. i also like how you kind of agree that the other officers didnt do shit right but yet you still wanna blame the guy who was trapped in a corner??
"don't hit my car!" Dude, it's a mother and 2 young kids and you're worried about your car? A few of the cops in this situation don't seem to be the brightest bulbs
Police departments hire based on intelligence. Infact they specifically pick people who are less intelligent.. you can actually be too intelligent to be a cop and you'll be denied the job.
i’m convinced their police department was trained by 14 year olds who play airsoft. pointing their pistols at each other, that one officer panicking the whole time telling their parter to run THROUGH their suppressive fire… they were more of a threat to themselves than the gunman.
This is a sad reality in small communities. I live in a very small town in a large but sparsely populated county in a large but sparsely populated state. It truly is like living in Mayberry sometimes. They don't have the experience to back their training.
The police aren't defunded sweety. In fact, the most lefty state, California, it spent 2.35 billion dollars in 2021 alone towards the police funding. This isn't a funding problem, it's a problem with training with police in general.
@@HAAAAAAAAHHHHHH You're right. Most of us will probably never be in such a stressful situation. There might also be good reasons and training behind their actions, even if they look strange to the observer.
I know right? It's a SHIELD. You know, stops bullets from hitting you in your dome. You can even play captain America if that helps you understand how it's supposed to work. You hold it, and keep it between you and the bullet, and you're good. You'd think these guys never watched a movie about the Romans or anything ancient before.
@@justincooper5189 god forbid someone wants to make sure their using protective gear correctly. It might seem simple, but ones minor mistake for anyone in that situation could have ment their life. Cops are trained for this sort of thing, but it's not exactly like we're living in a country where this is an everyday thing for these specific officers. Forgive them if they have have human flaws like the rest of us, and aren't 100% ready for something they didn't think they'd have to deal with that day, especially since they were under the impression this guy had no firearms to begin with. It seems simple in practice, but we can't pretend we're always going to be ready for what's thrown at us, and it's better to ask questions than just assume, or people get hurt. Understanding this is crucial for our humanity.
@@justincooper5189 I think it's funny in hindsight, but to be fair, I'd rather ask dumbass questions and get laughed at while I get told what I need to know, than keep my mouth shut and potentially wind up dead.
As someone who sells police equipment it bothered me less because police shields sometimes have hi power lights or other gadgets attached. But by far the most common are the you just f*ckin hold it type
They were asking how his shield skills were. Like are you good at it. How is your work/skill? Not how the actual shield works. That’s why he wanted him to hold it.
Sounds like he had some kind of psychological collapse. Very sad. A well liked and respected member of the community, reduced to this. Mental illness is truly devastating.
@@JohnGaltGurgi Depends on the situation, I would think. Do it for pleasure or revenge or something, then yea it is. But say you lost touch with reality because of psychosis or schizophrenia... or you are experiencing vi0l.en.t outburts due to an illness, like a degenerative brain disease or a brain tumor or something, then there probably isnt much narcissism involved. But I dont know much about this guy so cant comment on him specifically.
"Negative." Translation: calm down, shut the fuck up, stop giving away my position, otherwise you and I will have a live fire discussion about this later.
"The emergency is such that off-duty cops leave their second jobs to respond to the crisis." It's insanity that we can't pay the men and women who are risking their lives to saves others a livable wage.
This comment hurts. I served with a Marine that was from Euclid he was killed in Action in 05 Andrew Nowacki a Grand river patrol man he was 24. It's been 19 years I still have issues with it. He was a good dude. We should have work at Amazon. He still be here probably.

@@immikeurnot If you're too ignorant to understand he meant, you shouldn't be commenting on stuff you don't know about. What the cop meant was, he will shoot suppressing fire first, then stop and let him run through. Jesus christ man..

That call to “let it breathe” after the door was opened saved that officers life. Sadly seen police entries where they didn’t do that, and it ends poorly.
@@adamlevy9845 It means to stand away from the doorway and not enter, just in case there's something/someone on the other side waiting that could cause harm in a surprise attack, similarly to how this incident involved gunfire immediately upon the door opening.
@@adamlevy9845 "Let it breathe" means wait and see if anything happens. It's the opposite of the old-school "flood" technique where you get through a breach as quickly as possible. Flooding is great for hostage rescue or other situations where innocent life is at risk, like active shooters.
I think the saddest thing is the swat officer had to leave his second job at Amazon. Imagine putting yourself in the line of danger every day only to be rewarded with a second job at Amazon.
Yeah this is the world we have created. It’s not even just police almost everyone is working horrible jobs that pay almost nothing so we have to work multiple jobs just to be able to barely afford a small family. It’s grotesque how much money we send to other countries in aid while we have hundreds of millions of people working themselves to death for barely anything here in our own country. It’s honestly evil there’s no other way to describe it.
He was asking how it works against gun fire. There are different levels of ballistic shields. That one was a level 4 shield meaning it could stop a hand gun as well as armor piercing rounds from a rifle . Body armor comes in various levels and when he asked how's it work he wanted to know can it protect us
SERIOUSLY! "Lets get you out of harm, but don't you hit my car!" Fuckin priorities dude. LET HER hit it if that's what it takes. Taxpayers paid for that car not you.
@@silenceisgoldn it’s just a joke chill dude. It was obviously a horrible call and a funny reply from the other officer. If you can’t make some light of a dark situation your life must suck
@@silenceisgoldn Where else was the guy gonna "lay down fire"? In the air? Of course he meant he was going to shoot through and around the door that Lindsey had to run past. It was an idiotic call, and Lindsey was right to reject the idea.
I've been around people like that cop screaming "Lindsay...Lindsay...Lindsay!!!" in stressful, even life-and-death situations. Every single one of them desperately needed to be slapped and told to calm down. They are just the worst human beings to have around in a crisis, because they sincerely believe their panic is somehow "control."
@saltine_american Huh? Every woman in my family is the stoic one who has to calm the men down in situations lol. My dad, granddad, and my husband all get hysterical under stress and get frantic and vocal just like the officer in the video lolol real life aint TV.
Obviously if he was being evicted he wasn’t thriving. Evictions and domestic disputes calls should never be taken lightly. People are usually at their lowest point in life and emotions are high. Really this could be any one of us. Help those if you can.
As a gun owner and avid target shooter it is EXTREMELY distressing to me that cop just started shooting at the house with no idea where the guy was or who all were in the house. One of the four rules of gun safety is to know your target and what is beyond it so you hit what you want while limiting the risk of hitting something or someone you don't wish to hit. Just wild to me he fired like that with not just no idea where the guy was but with his partner in the cone of fire.
I have faced 2 evictions in my life. Still managed to buy a small house and move on with life. Eviction is definitely bad thing that can happen to you. But it's not the end. If anyone is going through something similar please remember it's doable to get through it. Never give up !!!
I've been through one myself and lost 2 places of living and am now engaged and planning on buying our first property together, its never the end it's always a new beginning!!! People need to write there stories more rather then ending them over set backs 😢
The eviction was simply the last straw. The guy basically could have stubbed his toe and decided it was time to end it all. He was just done with life. Most people will never understand what that feels like and that’s good but some people just get into a rut and can’t see any light and lose all hope and will to live. If he was going to end it he shouldn’t have brought others into his drama though and fired the shots at the officers. He should have just ended himself with one shot so he could at least have kept some dignity.. or decided not to be a selfish POS and used his life to contribute something to the world. He was just entirely self absorbed. Being a selfish, self absorbed person and not winning at life is a bad combination. Ive been there. I’m working and trying to do my part in society but I see why people get where he is. If I decide to end it I’m doing it quietly and alone. It will probably be when I’m about his age, if I make it that far, and once my child is raised and knows what she needs to know to survive in this world and I pay this mortgage off so she’ll at least have a home in this nightmare. Damn I went on a rant. Sorry if you wasted your time reading it lol
@@brandongreene9615brother, I see you can empathize with McGraw because you have an idea how he feels. You understand that the smallest thing could've set him off to do something like this; but what you don't realize about yourself is you can't control what you'll do if you hit this point. Please seek out some form of help before you get to that point. Big love to you, man. It wasn't a waste reading what you called a rant. I appreciate your perspective.
@42_rus85 I'm the same got evicted with 2 small children a wife and a 11 yr old lived in hotels and hostels for nearly a year we moved 7 times in 9 months. When have just brought our forever home and couldn't be happier . Like you said eviction is bad but not the end . You just have to make sure you wake up and do your upmost to make sure that situation never happens again
There was zero doubt in my mind he could've gotten out that house almost immediately and on his own if he wanted to. There was more than one option, running out was definitely a possibility, but these cops clearly don't have true survival skills and are very procedural.
Imagine being told to get out of the way of a possible barrage of gunfire only to have a cop yelling at you to not scratch his car. It’s not even his own car either. Crazy priorities.
How is backing into a car going to help get yourself out of the way? The cop was doing her a favor. Imagine having to explain all that to your insurance company.
@@YouTubalcaine Ruts in grass don't require an insurance claim. Backing into another car does, and it's worse when it's a government car. I'm really struggling to understand why you people are taking such big issue with the cop preventing her from backing into another car. Wouldn't you? Or would you just sit there and watch someone back into something without saying a word?
@@jeremy5602 I take issue with any government agent who decides that a public safety concern is more important than private property rights, but less important than government property rights. If you can't understand why that's a huge problem then I can't help you.
I love how the cop talks to the neighbor very calmly. “Hey, your neighbor just shot at us a bunch. You wanna grab some stuff and get to your car to leave?” Super calm and very high pitched. I laughed my ass off. Probably a little more than Lindsey saying “negative”
Officer Lindsey was so cool and collected, good for him. He kept calm and didn't panic or let the situation overwhelm him. He did exactly what he needed to, and keeping a cool head like that was exactly what was needed in the moment, no panic, no screaming, just calm. Good on Lindsey.
"I'mma be fired from Amazon for the way I drove out of that parking lot, probably" It's so utterly tragic that they're not paid enough to not necessitate a second lob.
This man McGraw was only 52 years old (I'm 57!), he still had many years left in him from the images I've seen, so perhaps he had nowhere else to go but down (Streets) and he feared that.
@@jos9566 we met a man hv his construction business and later had stroke and spend all his money on doc and lawyer, he feel dizzy when climb a certain level bcos of the stroke, so his bussiness fold and his house is on foreclosure. The agent said she don't know where he is going to go after this. We did not buy his hse, my husband give him a couple hundred, was thinking about him when i watch tis. Did ask my husband for his location few years ago, bcos i possibly know how to treat his dizziness. He said no idea.
If police did a CAF that basically stealing a lot of times I am surprised people do not accept it. In Michigan they seized a farm because of actions of a kid. The appeals court ruled against the police and said they needed to give back property. They refused and said no case law to force them. Case is with Michigan Supreme Court to address. I surprised there is not more actions.
Today I learned that for all the gear and weaponry, police really do just wing it in the field. That one officer having a riot shield he had no clue how to maneuver with, the initial officer screaming at Lindsey while he's trying desperately to whisper into his radio and not give away where he was standing, the one shooting the shit about the APC reminding him of being deployed. Some of this stuff would have made for a great Brooklyn Nine Nine bit.
@@HaggisMuncher-69-420come on man, color has nothing to do with it. I do believe culture can affect someone negatively since not all cultures are equal, but the shooter wasn’t some thug. He was a businessman.
Really sad that the guy said "I'm gonna get fired from Amazon the way I drove out of the parking lot." Sucks that not even being a cop is enough to guarantee financial stability in this country.
@@TheArmedNurse Yeah I'm not defending cops for enforcing evictions in our collapsing housing economy but I'm saying it's also pretty nasty how the people who are employed as oppressors are also not even paid enough to live stable lives. No one wins here, not even police. This whole country is in dire straits.
@@gamerbuge Yes it is crazy how you need two jobs to survive in this country. I’m an RN and make more than cops (pretty much double) but I still need to supplement my income to live comfortably.
So many things to point out that’s dangerous 1. It’s an eviction, always be ready 2. Officer wasn’t focus at the end of the stairs 3. It was only one way in and no way out(porch area) never block yourself in 4. Landlord said he didn’t know, he never said No ( major difference) 5. Officer Assumed it was a 70yr old guy (they kinda let their guards down), even 70 yr can shoot 6. Officer kept giving viral information over radio while partner was stuck on the porch not knowing if suspect was listening 7. Officer wanted partner to escape, which means he would have to run pass the door
point 3: easily they should have FIRST went around and opened the window first really swiftly prior to knocking on the door (or have one cop do that while the others knock) so in case you needed to back out you could quietly retreat from the door to the other side of the door
I immediately thought how the landlord told them that they don't know if there are any firearms. The ignorant cop saying that they told him that there were NO firearms irritated me. If someone doesn't know you should probably assume the worst.
I feel like the woman driving that “broke two ribs” was nosy and over dramatic. I’m sure she probably got in the way too. I call bull on the broken ribs….. just sayin. It’s people like her who make officers jobs harder.
Condolences to all hurt during this tragedy. Chad McGraw, who was in a dark place, and that lady that broke her own ribs while stopping in the middle of a firefight instead of driving away. What an absolute menagerie.
Officer Lindsey probably the only officer with his head on his shoulders. Honestly, given the fact that you hear chatter about the other officer serving in the Middle East, I gotta wonder if he had a minor PTSD episode and panicked that his partner was in a bad situation because of something that happened there. Lindsey, while not in an ideal situation, was in a safe position. In no way could McGraw go after Lindsey without exposing himself to the police, and Lindsey would have seen McGraw first had McGraw tried. Lindsey was in more danger from his fellow police officers with potential crossfire, especially with his panicked partner telling him to run through a hail of his own bullets. The fact that they didn't scout with a drone before rescuing Lindsey put themselves in unnecessary danger as well. It just further the suspicion I have that something might have happened when that dude was deployed in the military that screwed up his priorities without realizing that Lindsey was, for the situation he was stuck in, relatively fine
@@joebloe4374 has nothing to do with it. You dont know what the situation is. The home could be paid off and you can still get evicted. Did you know that? Exactly. So, nobody wants someone else saying you no longer have a right to be able to live.
Doesn't seem like that worked out all that well. DOUBLED the price. Jesus the building looks like hell and as if it is ready to fall over the minute the siding slides off.
Being evicted is an emotional situation. What happened to talking people into complying? Just telling someone to open up is not it! It’s safer for all involved and cheaper.
To be fair thats probably the most stressful situation some of those officers have ever been in and no amount of training can prepare you for that, no matter how good.
I was just thinking to myself. He was stuck there, but if he had have ran past the doorway, he'd be in the target area for about 0.5 seconds. Do you reckon the 70 year old man could have raised his weapon and shot him in that time? IMO he would have to already be pre-aiming through the doorway and waiting to even get close to hitting him. It's really not worth the risk cause he could be sitting there aiming through just waiting for him
Anyone else notice that the police completely made up both the explosives and son threats? Not to mention Lindsey's partner constantly giving away his position or the two dudes where one of them is talking oh so sweet to the neighbor and the other is biting her head off. That whole thing was handled pretty unprofessional including before the gunfight.
How's as in How IS your shield work i.e. how good are you with shield tactics, it's why the officer said he's never done it before so they'll have to figure it out

Lindsey was really smart and awesome here. I wish I could be as cool as he is.
@@gunkanjima3408 and turn your back to the open door that someone is shooting out of? Not a great idea.
@@FantabulousFail You’re right. Be a sitting duck is better
@@gunkanjima3408 how is he a sitting duck? He has concealment/cover and the angle advantage should the guy push the door. Staying calm and quiet until assistance came was the right thing to do if he had broken that window then the guy would know where he was and could just put rounds through the wall in his direction. Just because your stationary doesn’t mean you are a sitting duck bud, but panicking and making rash decisions does make you a target.
"How does your shield work?"
"You just fucking hold it."

LOL He said How's your shield work. ie Training with tactical shields as used in a stack
@@marcuscelt7014 Same answer applies. You just hold it between people you don't want to get shot and people trying to shoot them.

Officer Lindsey should get a custom uniform that reads “I’m with morons” on it.

Im still confused on why he didnt go out the window behind him they clearly lift up like the standard window and when they suggested that to him all he did was just touch the blind like nah and think he wanted to be a bad ass
@@734millz - You can tell by his demeanor he is NOT wanting to be Badass, or else he would’ve ran out guns blazing. He’s calm and collected and trying to keep his life while his buddy flips out. Breaking the window would’ve given his position away further, and distracted him from holding the angle incase McGraw decided to push.
Also I’m 90% sure porch windows like that don’t open up at all, and have no sliding mechanisms.
@@solarwolf1336 i was just talking shit with the bad ass comment stop being so tender…. but literally me and hundreds of other people in the comments looked right at the window and see the two sliding lock mechanism it’s literally the standard enclosed deck window bud he didnt need to break it they literally slide right up open like a bed room window, watch it how ever many more time you need to see he easily could’ve opened the window and got out while someone provide cover if needed, if he would’ve gotten shot just standing there the whole time trust they would’ve been wondering why tf didnt he go out the window
Ik I shouldn’t laugh at this but fuck me Lindsey being so nonchalant about being trapped, while his crack job backup team is learning how to use a shield is just 😭😭😭

Yeah I get the impression that he was more than a little bit frustrated with his partner.
@@tonetraveler992 Me too !
The cop helping buckle the kiddo into the car, and chatting with him to keep him calm is some serious dad energy and I'm here for it.
That cops yelling out his partners position and making him speak, giving the shooter a target location.
Right? Was on the porch talking too much.
Ikr. You could tell the trapped officer was trying to keep his voice down.
These cops were so disorganized it's sad
EXACTLY!! This actually pissed me off to see this. The suspect may have never known the cop was stuck there in such a vulnerable position BUT NO they need half their department yelling out in the open that he’s trapped. If this wasn’t a case of a self inflicted gsw I think this could have ended so much worse

It definitely sounds like he fell down a conspiracy rabbit hole with the Turtle Island and Blackland US stuff.

Officer Lindsay chose the correct career for himself, we need more officers like him
yeah sitting in a corner, keeping yourself fully endangered. thats the CQB specialist i went
your like all the sheep's in the comments, just some info for this instance. he put himself in CRITICAL endangerment and over a long span of time, hes stuck, soft cover, and his position is 100% blown. its almost laughable how bad of position that he puts himself in and he wont even get himself out witch would lead to him being magnitudes safer even crossing open fire zone (door way). that's how bad being in that corner is, its THAT BAD
but we now know he was in no danger at all, but... if there was danger, being in that corner over walking pass a shooting path, would be dozens of times safer then being wall bang or pushed on. repositioning is always the best move, especially in this cqb situation were is was only 4 feet away to being completely safe over him being 4 feet away from him being walled or pushed.
also his partner should've ran back and yell at him and push his shit for staying in the corner, but he yelled and made dumb suggestions. no one acted, big problem
@@monkeebunz8580 sure he put himself in a shitty position, but he was ABSOLUTELY great at keeping cool in the situation. his partners failed him, thats why his position was known, and its literally not worth the risk crossing over the door when you have zero clue what could happen. sure, we know NOW that it was fine, but its always better to be safe than sorry. i also like how you kind of agree that the other officers didnt do shit right but yet you still wanna blame the guy who was trapped in a corner??

Police departments hire based on intelligence. Infact they specifically pick people who are less intelligent.. you can actually be too intelligent to be a cop and you'll be denied the job.
This is a small suburban town, not fucking LA. This is the most intense shit most of these guys have ever dealt with.
Right. Pissing me off screaming at her
i’m convinced their police department was trained by 14 year olds who play airsoft. pointing their pistols at each other, that one officer panicking the whole time telling their parter to run THROUGH their suppressive fire… they were more of a threat to themselves than the gunman.
That's what happens when you defund police stations, they can't do much training.
This is a sad reality in small communities. I live in a very small town in a large but sparsely populated county in a large but sparsely populated state. It truly is like living in Mayberry sometimes. They don't have the experience to back their training.
The police aren't defunded sweety. In fact, the most lefty state, California, it spent 2.35 billion dollars in 2021 alone towards the police funding. This isn't a funding problem, it's a problem with training with police in general.
@mloca5195 2.35 billion dollars isn't that much especially for California's size

Forgive them if they have have human flaws like the rest of us, and aren't 100% ready for something they didn't think they'd have to deal with that day, especially since they were under the impression this guy had no firearms to begin with.

As someone who sells police equipment it bothered me less because police shields sometimes have hi power lights or other gadgets attached. But by far the most common are the you just f*ckin hold it type
They were asking how his shield skills were. Like are you good at it. How is your work/skill? Not how the actual shield works. That’s why he wanted him to hold it.
Sounds like he had some kind of psychological collapse. Very sad. A well liked and respected member of the community, reduced to this. Mental illness is truly devastating.
I know. Taking out yourself is maybe understandable. Taking out innocent strangers is not. Its a narcistic mindset.

That call to “let it breathe” after the door was opened saved that officers life. Sadly seen police entries where they didn’t do that, and it ends poorly.
What does "let it breathe" mean?
@@adamlevy9845 It means to stand away from the doorway and not enter, just in case there's something/someone on the other side waiting that could cause harm in a surprise attack, similarly to how this incident involved gunfire immediately upon the door opening.
@@adamlevy9845 "Let it breathe" means wait and see if anything happens. It's the opposite of the old-school "flood" technique where you get through a breach as quickly as possible.
Flooding is great for hostage rescue or other situations where innocent life is at risk, like active shooters.

Obviously if he was being evicted he wasn’t thriving. Evictions and domestic disputes calls should never be taken lightly. People are usually at their lowest point in life and emotions are high. Really this could be any one of us. Help those if you can.
Yeah, he was the real victim here.
/s
It's wild because he had a steady job and owned a side business yet wasn't paying rent. All that went down because he refused to pay bills.
As a gun owner and avid target shooter it is EXTREMELY distressing to me that cop just started shooting at the house with no idea where the guy was or who all were in the house. One of the four rules of gun safety is to know your target and what is beyond it so you hit what you want while limiting the risk of hitting something or someone you don't wish to hit. Just wild to me he fired like that with not just no idea where the guy was but with his partner in the cone of fire.
Target Shooter? This target was an armed human. Whole different ball game than going to the range. Have some humility for christs sake
That guy really loves Lindsey. I really thought he was gonna fall on his knees and cry his name already lol
I really hope it's not the same one who came up with the hairbrained plan to "lay down fire, while you run out."...
I have faced 2 evictions in my life. Still managed to buy a small house and move on with life. Eviction is definitely bad thing that can happen to you. But it's not the end. If anyone is going through something similar please remember it's doable to get through it. Never give up !!!
Love this comment ❤
I've been through one myself and lost 2 places of living and am now engaged and planning on buying our first property together, its never the end it's always a new beginning!!! People need to write there stories more rather then ending them over set backs 😢
The eviction was simply the last straw. The guy basically could have stubbed his toe and decided it was time to end it all. He was just done with life. Most people will never understand what that feels like and that’s good but some people just get into a rut and can’t see any light and lose all hope and will to live. If he was going to end it he shouldn’t have brought others into his drama though and fired the shots at the officers. He should have just ended himself with one shot so he could at least have kept some dignity.. or decided not to be a selfish POS and used his life to contribute something to the world. He was just entirely self absorbed. Being a selfish, self absorbed person and not winning at life is a bad combination. Ive been there. I’m working and trying to do my part in society but I see why people get where he is. If I decide to end it I’m doing it quietly and alone. It will probably be when I’m about his age, if I make it that far, and once my child is raised and knows what she needs to know to survive in this world and I pay this mortgage off so she’ll at least have a home in this nightmare. Damn I went on a rant. Sorry if you wasted your time reading it lol
@@brandongreene9615brother, I see you can empathize with McGraw because you have an idea how he feels.

@@jos9566 we met a man hv his construction business and later had stroke and spend all his money on doc and lawyer, he feel dizzy when climb a certain level bcos of the stroke, so his bussiness fold and his house is on foreclosure. The agent said she don't know where he is going to go after this. We did not buy his hse, my husband give him a couple hundred, was thinking about him when i watch tis. Did ask my husband for his location few years ago, bcos i possibly know how to treat his dizziness. He said no idea.
If police did a CAF that basically stealing a lot of times I am surprised people do not accept it. In Michigan they seized a farm because of actions of a kid. The appeals court ruled against the police and said they needed to give back property. They refused and said no case law to force them. Case is with Michigan Supreme Court to address. I surprised there is not more actions.
Today I learned that for all the gear and weaponry, police really do just wing it in the field. That one officer having a riot shield he had no clue how to maneuver with, the initial officer screaming at Lindsey while he's trying desperately to whisper into his radio and not give away where he was standing, the one shooting the shit about the APC reminding him of being deployed. Some of this stuff would have made for a great Brooklyn Nine Nine bit.
Thank-you for your service.
I think that officer might have been having a PTSD moment.
@@Evanrs44like i care lol?
Everyone BUT officer Lindsay failed at their jobs in this moment.
Just a normal day then
cause you'd be so much better 😂😂😂😂😂
@@megsley yeah actually
@@megsley they put the officer directly in the line of fire and ran away, not to mention the locksmith
My feeling so far. Jeez. Poor guy.
To everyone saying these cops need more training:
1. Yes, all cops need MUCH MUCH more training!
2. That’s East Cleveland for ya
It's sad to see someone who appeared to be successful can ended up like this.
Agree
It's the DNA of the usual suspects.
Lets not speak in riddle say what you mean @@HaggisMuncher-69-420
@@HaggisMuncher-69-420come on man, color has nothing to do with it.
I do believe culture can affect someone negatively since not all cultures are equal, but the shooter wasn’t some thug. He was a businessman.
@@HaggisMuncher-69-420 because white people never harm law enforcement.
Didn't expect this to end with a land acknowledgement
You know you live somewhere hot when the entire back of your house is melting...
Really sad that the guy said "I'm gonna get fired from Amazon the way I drove out of the parking lot." Sucks that not even being a cop is enough to guarantee financial stability in this country.
Well, maybe they need to find a better job than forcing people out of their dwellings.
@@TheArmedNurse Yeah I'm not defending cops for enforcing evictions in our collapsing housing economy but I'm saying it's also pretty nasty how the people who are employed as oppressors are also not even paid enough to live stable lives. No one wins here, not even police. This whole country is in dire straits.
@@gamerbuge Yes it is crazy how you need two jobs to survive in this country. I’m an RN and make more than cops (pretty much double) but I still need to supplement my income to live comfortably.
@@justisinus In my state, cops start out at $23. I make $43 as an RN.
@@TheArmedNurse So they should just let him stay there for as long as he likes?
"I'm going to lay down fire and you get the f out!" "...Negative" 😂😂😂
Didn't feel like running out into a cross-fire. Wise decision.
@VenturiLife Lol, his situational awareness was like well that's dumb! And you're GIVING AWAY MY POSITION!!!
Swear that was a scene in a will Ferrell movie
Only in Ohio
That cop watches too much TV, when the other cop runs out he would shoot him WTF was he thinking.
17:34 imagine worrying about a car when you're a walking target
"don't hit the car"
The last thing I would be thinking about in a situation like this is my car.
So many things to point out that’s dangerous
1. It’s an eviction, always be ready
2. Officer wasn’t focus at the end of the stairs
3. It was only one way in and no way out(porch area) never block yourself in
4. Landlord said he didn’t know, he never said No ( major difference)
5. Officer Assumed it was a 70yr old guy (they kinda let their guards down), even 70 yr can shoot
6. Officer kept giving viral information over radio while partner was stuck on the porch not knowing if suspect was listening
7. Officer wanted partner to escape, which means he would have to run pass the door
#5. You got THAT RIGHT !!!
point 3: easily they should have FIRST went around and opened the window first really swiftly prior to knocking on the door (or have one cop do that while the others knock) so in case you needed to back out you could quietly retreat from the door to the other side of the door
I immediately thought how the landlord told them that they don't know if there are any firearms. The ignorant cop saying that they told him that there were NO firearms irritated me. If someone doesn't know you should probably assume the worst.
That one cop just screaming out the entire plan needs more training 😂
Cop A: “How’s your fieldwork?”
Cop C: “I’ve really never done one before.”
😳😳
Drive through the neighbor's yard, but DON'T YOU DARE hit my car 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😅
The cop asked about firearms in the home but he never really got a definitive answer.
But he said he was told “No”.
I feel like the woman driving that “broke two ribs” was nosy and over dramatic. I’m sure she probably got in the way too. I call bull on the broken ribs….. just sayin. It’s people like her who make officers jobs harder.
She was hoping to be on the local news
Everything she said was a lie
Good thing I'm not a cop or I would absolutely ensure they aren't faking it with a baton.
She was ridiculous
Condolences to all hurt during this tragedy. Chad McGraw, who was in a dark place, and that lady that broke her own ribs while stopping in the middle of a firefight instead of driving away. What an absolute menagerie.
💀💀💀💀 I'm dead lol
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
Officer Lindsey probably the only officer with his head on his shoulders. Honestly, given the fact that you hear chatter about the other officer serving in the Middle East, I gotta wonder if he had a minor PTSD episode and panicked that his partner was in a bad situation because of something that happened there.
Lindsey, while not in an ideal situation, was in a safe position. In no way could McGraw go after Lindsey without exposing himself to the police, and Lindsey would have seen McGraw first had McGraw tried. Lindsey was in more danger from his fellow police officers with potential crossfire, especially with his panicked partner telling him to run through a hail of his own bullets. The fact that they didn't scout with a drone before rescuing Lindsey put themselves in unnecessary danger as well. It just further the suspicion I have that something might have happened when that dude was deployed in the military that screwed up his priorities without realizing that Lindsey was, for the situation he was stuck in, relatively fine
Has nothing to do with outside appearances. Nobody would appreciate government officials coming to take your home
Pay the rent
@@joebloe4374 has nothing to do with it. You dont know what the situation is. The home could be paid off and you can still get evicted. Did you know that? Exactly. So, nobody wants someone else saying you no longer have a right to be able to live.
"How long has it been since he's paid Rent"
"Last time he paid was just before we doubled the price"
The Capitalist Censors are working overtime it seems.
Hmmmm
Doesn't seem like that worked out all that well. DOUBLED the price. Jesus the building looks like hell and as if it is ready to fall over the minute the siding slides off.
Gee I wonder why???
Comment of the night 100%
Pretty embarrassing police work.
Its like kids playing CoD.
I thought i heard an acorn hit the roof sounded like a gun shot. 😂
Lindsey should have run the medic loadout for extra stems, IMO.
I've seen kids playing CoD with better coordination, communication, and individual and team discipline than these clowns
@@robinpage2730 Sure because they got respawns unlike these fellers.
Everybody take it down a notch.
Being evicted is an emotional situation. What happened to talking people into complying? Just telling someone to open up is not it! It’s safer for all involved and cheaper.
They need to use this video as training for future officers on what NOT to do. Lindsay seems like the only one with any sense.
Keystone cops
To be fair thats probably the most stressful situation some of those officers have ever been in and no amount of training can prepare you for that, no matter how good.
@@tree_addict280 You probably right but it couldn’t hurt.
Officer Lindsey exhibits A level of calmness I wish to obtain in life.
Sadly combat does that.
I was just thinking to myself. He was stuck there, but if he had have ran past the doorway, he'd be in the target area for about 0.5 seconds. Do you reckon the 70 year old man could have raised his weapon and shot him in that time? IMO he would have to already be pre-aiming through the doorway and waiting to even get close to hitting him. It's really not worth the risk cause he could be sitting there aiming through just waiting for him
Anyone else notice that the police completely made up both the explosives and son threats? Not to mention Lindsey's partner constantly giving away his position or the two dudes where one of them is talking oh so sweet to the neighbor and the other is biting her head off. That whole thing was handled pretty unprofessional including before the gunfight.
“How does your shield work?!”
“…you just fuckin’ hold it…”
Lol
How's as in How IS your shield work i.e. how good are you with shield tactics, it's why the officer said he's never done it before so they'll have to figure it out
