The smile on his face while discussing his partner, Thor, says it all. This man cares for Thor when he faces the same danger as him. Bravo!
Thank you for your service.
I have had a great honor to know Connor Amburn, his family and even his dog. True blessing that none of the officers were hurt. I pray he and his family are all doing well in the private sector.
God Bless America, Officer C. Amburn & his loved ones including his Toto!
@seagullseagullseagul bro I don't like the police either, I really don't. But the driver was responsible for his passenger getting shot, because the driver was shooting at the police... If the driver didn't shoot, his car wouldn't have gotten shot up like that.. That's just common sense man.. if the cops would have shot first, I'd be agreeing with you 100%.. but I know that if you shoot at me, I promise I'm going to keep shooting at you until you stop. It's just self preservation at that point
This SAVED THE TAX PAYERS A LOT OF MONEY. Good shooting marksmanship pays off.
@phantom 309 ding 🛎
half right. one survived
No trial needed here. Saved me money. Thanks
These were not Regular Cops on the scene, These were SUPER COPS. Job well done, Thank you for your service.
You sir are a hero! Don't let anyone ever tell you any different.
@seagullseagullseagul WOW ARE YOU HIS BOYFRIEND BRO DONT WORRY HE LOVES THE JAIL D
Thank you for your service
Glad to see the officers weren't injured or killed.. great work
They are so Brave , God bless our officers
@seagullseagullseagul cry
They didn't ask why the suspect turned into a crazy wavey inflatable when shot.
I think that was the passenger because I kept hear shots coming from that vehicle with a leg sticking down out of the car. The inflatable suspect was the passenger and that was his legs as he was jumping into the back for safety and he got hit in the back and his legs started to make those involuntary movements lol
REAL MEN OF TENN..THANK YOU🤴
watching him flop around getting riddled with bullets LMFAO made my day
I can't say I enjoy seeing that. But I can say I'm glad that no officer saw that fate.
God bless this deputy!!
...and his brave & loyal K9 partner!
Too bad the Officer has left the PD!
@seagullseagullseagul cry harder
That puppy is such a beautiful dog❤️🐕 thankfully he wasn't injured! Support 👮♂️👮♀️
People don’t realize what these officers go through at times like this one when things happen so fast that if not for training you might miss something, literally speaking, it’s a very dangerous job and some never think about these officers and what they do for me and you, I would like to thank all these officers for putting their life on the line for all of us, because that’s what they do every day for me and you, god bless all police officers everywhere all across our nation let it be known that here in Texas we don’t talk about defunding the police we talk about how we can help our officers.god bless youall. strait from a heart of Texas.
You think it was loud for you just imagine how loud and percussive it was for that k-9.
Yeah, dogs' ears are more sensitive than ours and there's a chance that the event may cause the dog to be taken out of service to an early retirement.
Yes, thank you for your service.!❤
If only every criminal could see this swift type of street justice...
It's indeed poetic justice!
"Do you feel lucky, you p....!"
(quoted Detective Harry Callahan)
@@BenDover-zd5fcsorry to be that guy but it's actually "You've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do you, punk?", Mr. Ben Dover
This empathy for the dregs of society is ultimately our undoing, and a tremendous enabler of these thugs
$39k/year? They make that at Burger King here in NY, no wonder he left!
And many cities have talked of defunding the PD!
Wondered how much Chicago mayor Lf & her city council are paying our brave Officers there!
In my city they're paid approximately $16/hour from what I was told a couple weeks ago. The officer that told me is also in the National Guard, so I guess maybe the income is a bit more tolerable when added together, but I think they ought to be paid better for the risk they take. I guess that's one of the reasons why we see so much turnover here.
Kudos to all brave officers 👏 👍 thank you for you're service.
Justice served
The real tragedy is the officer was only making $39k a year to put his life in danger every day, yet he's now a security officer who will probably never see that kind of crime nor ever have to draw his weapon or shoot it.
The cop got fired for shooting back? That doesn't make sense..
@@drugwarcasualties4130 He didn't get fired. He pursued a massive income boost opportunity. Sadly many good law enforcement officers leave their jobs so that they can get paid better to do safer jobs and support their families better.
you have no logic YOU DONT SAVE THE LIVES OF PEOPLE LIKE THAT you let them bleed out and then call for a ambulance
You wouldn't feel that way if that was your son, would you?
@@deborahallen3318 if my son were that evil then he deserves to die just like any other godless criminal who harms people God tested Abraham to see if he loved his son more than God and righteousness .Abraham put his own son on the altar to kill him to obey God .God expects us to love Him more than our own family SO TAKE YOU WIMP BEHIND ON DOWN THE ROAD OF LIFE for You are not worthy to be blessed by God for you put family above righteousness
@@edwardhill7045 If God is all loving he wouldn't put me in that situation.
Excellent Reporting and truthful . God Bless these officers ( and K 9’s💙🐕) are well and safe. 🇺🇸💙

@seagullseagullseagul Ok, so you're a copy/paste poster too, in addition to the all-caps? We need internet etiquette classes.
@seagullseagullseagul cope and seethe
Welcome to Tennessee Amigo.
Incredible!
Thank God all of these officers are okay, and that scumbag that disrespected them got what he deserved.
He didn't disrespect them.... He tried to kill them... Lol..
Job well done. GOD and your training made all the difference in the world.
🙏🙏🙏
GOD is good
These cops are good if god was real and as almighty as they say, the initial murder wouldn't have happened. Props to the cops, not some fake magic man in the sky 😂
I just saw Christian's Obituary !! I commend the marksmanship here
We need better pay and more funding for our Police.
The suspects partner and gf voted thumbs-down
I bet they were illegal as well. Just my opinion
God bless the officers
So the one flipping off and doing all kinds of faces is the one curled up and didn't fire a shot; it is the poker face one the most deadly.
The person was a passenger and knew exactly what they where getting into
stupid media!!!!!!!!!stop slamming the paperwork down on the desk to try and senasationalize your report!!!!!!!!!!!
Just happy that they took the trash out.....save us a trial and housing
What if he was black?? A lot of HYPOCRITES in this video. God bless the cops and people in authority
Who was being a hypocrite?
Once they have those tattoos in the neck. They are marked for the undertaker. Bye
Wow great performance test on that 2005 Tahoe. No rollover! Probably get that one cheap at the police impound auction soon.
The resilience of both vehicles involved was quite impressive if you ask me, from an automotive structural integrity and collision handling standpoint. Cheers to the American UAW workers.
Criminal "wasn't going back to Florida" - wish granted! 👮🚓👍
That border jumper got SMOKED
Is this NOT enough reason to complete the border wall?! Unf***ingbelievable! How long must we put up with this crap?!
Thank You LEO’s for taking the garbage out!
Gang signs. What gang wave at police, and then beg for help?
Wait, cops are trained to fire through their own windshield?? That's crazy.
God Bless You Men and Doggos
Xoxoxo
Stay Safe
Slamming the report how theatrical.... extraordinarily amateurish
God bless them and keep them safe while they protect us.

Great Job to All police officer's.
I bet he wasn't here legally.
Don’t mess with those officers
It's impossible to lock "eyes" with a wall eye.

@@BenDover-zd5fc absolutely!!
Just a Biden “dreamer” out for a highway cruise.
Lol you do realize this happened in July 2020 in which Trump was still president right?
1:03 dude drops the gun out the open door and waves, seemingly surrendering.
@Jason Kopf then why didn’t he keep holding it? Why did he drop it and then start waving his open palms in the air trying to tell them that he surrenders and is unarmed (the gun is by the front driver wheel on the ground away from him).
What the hell the interview should go he shot at us and we shot back end of story.
That probably hurt.....
Fund the Police!!! God bless these cops.
Mental health, suicide, etc. Who did these people kill. A woman. REAL MEN DON'T KILL INNOCENT CHILDREN OR WOMEN.
Finally a news story that focuses on the true heroes instead of the usual inflammatory BS of getting the perps family on TV crying about how he was such a good boy. Well done and professional from the police and the media.
The merical was these guys didn't shoot each other with very poor muzzle discipline.
Much sadness on professionalism when shooting and taking out the bad guys.please don't comment DECAUSE I never read them and it's not important to me. When working in law enforcement and handling weapons for over 46 years this one was scary for officer safety. I was a uncontrolled shooting on a highway.
PRAYING FOR US ALL.
I don't believe this officer what so ever... The guy had his hands up. Crossfire dude. You're a liar.
He wasn’t looking in your eyes
So...what was he looking at dan???
@@wwaynemcg he was surveying the entire tjreat
@@danjohnson6870 and you don’t think he made eye contact while surveying? Come on!
@@KCNYC The fact the perp slung rounds at this cop tells me he probably made eye contact while aiming. Logic.
@@wwaynemcg I misunderstood your comment
if not anything police spec Dodge CHARGER AWD + 0.5 in. Lift 4.0 i-Turbo I4 5-Dr Executive Sedan (LHD) should be equipped with transparent armour at the very least!!! 5.0 in. thick ballistic armoured glass in the front windshield, side door windows & rear windscreen will provide sufficient protection against small arms fire & armour piercing rounds!!! ultra lightweight ballistic composite fabric armour in the under part of the front bonnet lid, inside the door panel & cabin floor!!! approx cost €23,000 - €36,000 per car!!! an absolute necessary expense without a shred of doubt, to protect those who protect us!!!
Just talking like it's normal behavior....u know just another gun fight with people!
God I love the knox and Maryville police
I didn't c first aid
Just shooting all over the place. Surprise no friendly fire
God Bless the Blue and the K-9's
i guess in his formal training they also taught them dont aim just shoot as many rounds as you can as fast as you can
i would of liked to seen an ar-10 rifle used by one of the officers ; might of ended the fight sooner - 155 gr 7.62mm not much can stand up to getting hit by two of those rounds 30HATE
7.62 is waaaay too much round that passes thru that tahoe and ends up mile downwind in innocent civilians homes etc., or worse hits a fellow officer. Think man think.
@@uncommonsense5876 not if you use something like TAP 110gr ballistic tip rounds - the upside getting very high velocity nearly 3000fps
i still think that the 155gr ballistic tip wouldnt do that much of a pass through or it wouldnt have much energy if it did
Another video of these monsters ..... I mean liar s I mean cowards on patrol
I criminali vanno perseguiti! Stop
Well done 👍🏻 I’m sure it difficult to waste medical supplies when the Dems want to defund the police.
And NBC backs up the Democrats. Maybe NBC was hoping the officer was going to say something so they could run with.
USA looks like a terrible place to live in
for criminals it is!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reckless and irresponsible on both sides thank God no innocent people were hurt in this cowboy western shootout. 🤦
Yes sir Your thanking the Right one God I'm glad u law inforcement officers are ok thank God for it
Probably friendly fire ????
Cops lying about his injury
Thank dems for the open border
