[sirens wailing] Come on, baby. [dramatic music] (man)
Police! Search warrant! Go, go. Get your gas masks out
and get ready. [explosion] Oh, it's a spider. (Carmody)
When we adopted him, he didn't walk or talk. <i>[dog barking]</i> [barking] Anybody know the combination
of the safe down there? <i>Do you got blood?</i> <i>Go, go, go, go, go.</i> [man #1 over radio]
Barricaded suspect
armed and dangerous. [man #2 over radio]
Suspect is inside. [man #1 over radio]
We need to hit
the ground running. (man)
♪ Adrenaline's running higher. ♪ ♪ Strap the metal
to my back. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ Just you try
to push me away, ♪ ♪ 'cause you know I'll stay. ♪ ♪ My aim is true. ♪ (man)
Show me what you got, baby. What do you got? [people talking] Throw the flag.
Oh, you got to be kidding me. That's a horse-collar tackle,
personal foul. [laughing] Oh, God. (Huth)
It's a rare opportunity
that we all get to get together,
everybody being cops. Got the whole family here,
watching the game a little bit before we go to work. <i> [man laughs]</i> Come on, Kansas City,
third and 8. (Huth)
My brother Vern, who's in
the regular tac unit; my other brother, Mike, who's an instructor
at the academy; his wife, Angeleic,
patrols up here in north patrol; my wife, who's a detective; and last but not least,
one of the few non-cops. Got my mom, who pretty much raised us
single-handedly. <i>(man)
Oh, we lost that.</i> <i> (Christa)
Actually, Chip did help
with the cooking today.</i> He watched me
grill it. Ah. <i> He stood right there
and supervised.</i> <i> (Huth)
Look, this is the deal.</i> That's what I do.
I supervise. I can tell you
right now-- <i>(woman)
That's not looking
so good.</i> These things
are done properly. The burgers
are correct. Couldn't have done them
better myself. [rhythmic music] [door slams] Got a pretty big operation
brewing today. As a matter of fact,
it's going to require two squads to execute it. I think that's better. <i> If we do the drive-by,
if we could see that apartment</i> where we made that turn
on 12th, they can see us. Then you guys'll
be in the lead, <i> and we'll follow
behind you.</i> <i>Okay, we'll do it
that way, then.</i> We're going to get
this thing briefed. A couple variables
we got to go over here. <i>Today we're going
to be serving</i> two search warrants
on two separate apartments <i>simultaneously.</i> A no-knock warrant,
yes on guns, unknown dogs, <i>yes on kids.</i> We've got two
main suspects today. These guys are brothers, and they've been operating <i>in and around
this apartment complex</i> <i>for quite a while now.</i> Information from our
undercover officers is, there may be
more people involved <i>than just the two suspects,
so be aware.</i> <i>Due to the scope
of this operation,</i> we're going to deploy
in two teams. My squad is going to hit
the building to the south. <i> (Hamilton)
We're going to be
doing the same thing.</i> <i> We're going to be hitting</i> the second building
to the north, and hopefully we'll be hitting
the same time they hit theirs. <i> (Huth)
Hey, you guys.</i> We got enough
personnel here, helicopter's in play. This area's pretty wide open. Unless they try to run
back in somewhere, we're going to be able
to contain them. [gun clicks] <i> [man speaking over radio]</i> Dynamics and bounce-back
is the most important thing, us getting in there quick,
making entry fast, and getting
these guys overwhelmed as quick as we can
psychologically. That way, their opportunity
to resist is cut way down. <i> [radio beeps]</i> (Huth)
Listen up. Listen up. <i> (Huth)
Copy.</i> 1910 to 1934. <i> [over radio]
The passenger side of it.</i> <i> It's a red vehicle.</i> All right, 10's coming down
to the 2 location. Keep us updated what's going on and where the people are at
outside of the area. (Hamilton)
They just gave us some updated
information that a white car was in front
of our target addresses, so that's something that
we're going to keep an eye on when we pull up there. We're just going to wait here, and then once
they give us the word, we'll roll in
and hit both warrants. [suspenseful music] <i> [radio beeps]</i> <i> [man over radio]
Yeah, yeah, yeah.</i> Copy. <i>(Huth)
All right,
we ready, guys?</i> <i> All right, guys,
get ready.</i> <i> Four blocks,
on the right.</i> Mustang.
I got numbers. Seven away. Keith, Keith,
somebody's bailing. Somebody bailed. (man)
Get on the ground.
Get on the ground. Don't you move. <i> [man shouting]</i> [men shouting] (man)
Turn the lights on too. <i> [men yelling]</i> (Hamilton)
Okay, guys. Police!
Search warrant! Police!
Search warrant! Police!
Search warrant! (man)
Head up, head up! <i> Search warrant.</i> <i> Don't move.</i> (man)
Put your hands on your head. <i> Got it?</i> <i>Got it.</i> <i> (man #1)
Police! Search warrant!</i> <i> Anybody upstairs,
answer up now!</i> <i> (man #2)
Answer up.</i> <i> (man #1)
Police! Search warrant!</i> <i> (man #1)
Put your hands on your head.</i> <i> (man #2)
Get on the ground!</i> [alarm beeping] (man)
Chip, what's your status? (Huth)
One of our suspects
was inside there, running from us
into a back bedroom. We were able to detain him
before he could get out the rear of the residence. Simultaneously, 20-squad,
Pauly's squad, was clearing their location. (Hamilton)
We got two that are going down
in custody for sales. One of our targets
also had a Grandview warrant
for his arrest, and as of right now,
we have some crack cocaine and some currency. We also found some crack cocaine
on the woman in the house, and she's going
downtown as well. <i> (Ericsson)
What are you--what are you guys
doing out here right now?</i> Do you live here? Do you live here? <i> You got no reason
to be over here, do you?</i> <i> No reason at all.</i> Is this your car?
It is? You got anything in it
we should know about? You don't mind
if we check, then, right? Okay. Try to be as thorough
as I can be. The worst thing is
missing something, so... go over things twice,
three times, just to make sure
I don't miss anything. It'd be on that side.
Wind's blowing that way. What's that
right in there? Can you shine
a light in there? Hey, what's in that
black bag right there? Mm-hmm.
Okay, have a look. On that side,
I can smell it strong. Okay, oh, yeah. That's a strong whiff. On this second vehicle here, the subject we got detained
with the white Mustang, we smell a strong odor
of marijuana coming out of the vehicle. He does not want to give us
consent to get in the vehicle. Copy.
I'll let him know. And just so you know,
is it your car? <i> Yes, sir.</i> We're going to impound it, and we're going to execute
a search warrant on it. You got one of two ways of looking at this thing,
all right? You don't want to consent
and cooperate with us. I appreciate that. But we're going to get in there;
it's just going to take longer. You understand
what I'm saying? Impound it.
I'll just get it out. Okay, all right,
no problem. I respect
your decision. <i> Okay.</i> Okay. Get a tow truck. He's not denying that there
are drugs in there, you know. He just doesn't want
to give them up to us now; maybe delay going to jail
a little bit. I understand that. Up. (Huth)
Hey, you know,
it's all part of the game. We all play our roles out here, and he's playing his
to the Nth degree. See how it works out for him. [shrill alarm wailing] <i> [man talking over radio]</i> Well, that's a pretty decent
bag of marijuana there. Pretty much ascertained why he didn't want us
to get in his vehicle yesterday. (Carmody)
You want up
on my shoulders? (Caleb)
Uh-huh, yeah. Wow. This is my boy, Caleb. He's four years old. <i> (Cindi)
Who was that man
that's coming too?</i> <i> And guess
who else, Caleb?</i> One other person.
One other person. (Carmody)
My wife and I adopted Caleb
when he was two. Here, lay right here,
and we'll read a book. "What happened
to Katie's pockets?" Because my hours
are so unpredictable-- and being in SWAT, we're subject to call out
at any time-- I try to spend as much time
with Caleb as I can. [giggling] [growls] Can I have kisses? <i> (Cindi)
Kiss good night.</i> Oh, you're
a great boy. I will see you
in the morning. <i> [pager beeping]</i> We just got called out. We have an armed, barricaded
subject in a house up north. District officers
went to survey-- arrest him on a warrant, and he barricaded himself
inside the house. [siren wailing] Apparently, he shouted
at the officers, threatening a gunfight. The thing is, he's not alone. We think that there's
up to three other people in there with him. If they're armed, things could really take
a turn for the worse. <i> [man over radio]
In the basement.</i> <i>We got five out back right now.</i> They're adults? They are
all adults. Residence in question <i>is a gray, two-story
residential structure.</i> <i>I do not know</i> about fencing,
unknown about dogs, unknown about weapons. Any type of situation where they're manufacturing
methamphetamine poses a whole bunch
of significant risks. The chemicals and manufacturing
process that are involved are volatile and explosive. [siren wailing] (Carmody)
They're going to set up-- In a situation like this, where there's a chance
for explosives, we're going to need more cover, and that's why we're
taking in the B.E.A.R. This is the B.E.A.R. This is basically
my company car. It's 12 feet tall,
it's 24 feet long, and it weighs 33,000 pounds. It's got four-wheel drive,
1/2 inch reinforced armory, bulletproof glass. Inside the B.E.A.R., we can hold 14 fully equipped
tactical officers. Yeah. (Carmody)
From the safety end,
of the reinforced armory and the bulletproof glass, they have the ability
to engage targets 360 degrees around the B.E.A.R.
through these weapons ports. If this car ends up
in your driveway, you know we mean business. <i> [woman over radio]
The entry team is now
being deployed.</i> Okay, guys,
there's supposed to be <i> four to six adults
in here;</i> <i> three males for sure.</i> <i> There is a strong smell
of ether,</i> <i> so there's
a possibility</i> <i> that they might
be cooking meth.</i> <i> Let's be aware
of that.</i> <i> [woman over radio]</i> <i> Repeating: the entry team
is now deployed at 3:38.</i> (Carmody)
From the front side of the
house, we have seen nothing. It looks like maybe there is
a candle in the front room, because it flickers
every once in a while. Well, there's been no signs
of movement from inside. We have negotiators en route. They're going to negotiate
from the B.E.A.R. One of the problems
we're running into right now is, some of our
cover team members are experiencing some problems
with the streetlights. They're backlighting
the officers and basically makes them
a silhouette target for anybody inside. <i> 270 to 380.</i> Could you take this light out just to our west? (man)
Maybe. [gun clicks] [gunshot] [gun clicks] [gunshot] [gunshot] [gunshot] <i>(Carmody)
I'm sorry.</i> [truck engine whirrs] Get back. Hey, Sergeant. (Carmody)
Yeah, step up in there. We want to do everything
we possibly can to avoid any kind of gunfire, so we're going to have
our negotiators try to contact these people and see if we can't
talk them out. My name is John. I'm the guy here to help you
get out of this mess. This situation does not
need to go on anymore. (Jackson)
We've been talking
to this guy, trying to get him to respond
to us for some time now. We're getting nothing
out of the house whatsoever. It's getting
a little frustrating that he won't respond. We're beginning to get
a little concerned that maybe something may
have happened inside the house that we don't know about. Hey, Captain, this is Jim. I hadn't heard
any radio traffic. I just wanted to confirm
that we haven't detected or observed any motion
inside the residence since our arrival, correct? There's a better picture. Great. And she pays $800
a month rent, and she's prepaid
for eight months. She didn't want anybody
near that house. <i> (Heimer)
What it sounds like.</i> Well, right now,
from a tactical perspective, one of our primary goals is to really get a good look
inside of the garage. We have had enough
intelligence gathered that causes us to believe
there possibly is a meth lab, and we want to be
very cautious. Captain Heimer. <i> (Carmody)
Okay, Captain.</i> We need to get a look
inside that garage. [low menacing music] Okay? The suspect has made threats
of a gunfight, but we don't know
how he's going to react when we approach the house. (man)
Should we stage first? (Carmody)
Yeah, stage first. Okay, coming up. [glass breaks] Get some light in there. Yeah. <i> (Carmody)
There's two cars.</i> <i> Okay, I see it. I see it.
I see it.</i> <i> They're right next
to each other.</i> <i> (Carmody)
Okay. Okay, let's move back.</i> I think that ether smell
was from working on the cars. It appears that the fumes
are coming from the cars and not a meth lab. That doesn't change the fact that we still
have people inside, and we don't know
if they have guns. [truck engine whirring] 5:30. Uh, we're coming up
on daylight pretty soon. They've had ample time. We've disconnected power
to the house, so we're getting ready
to deploy a throw-phone in, and that'll give them
a line of communication. 370 to CP and cover team, a five-man team is going up
to deploy the phone. Chris, will you put
that spotlight in the window? <i> (man)
What?</i> Put that spotlight <i> in the window.</i> [glass breaking] (Carmody)
370 to CP, the throw-phone is in. The team
is moving back. <i> [line ringing]</i> <i> (man)
He's got a probation
violation, apparently.</i> <i> [line ringing]</i> <i> (Heimer)
Okay, you there?</i> Do you have your full squad
staged and ready to go? <i> Yeah, I need you guys
to get ready</i> <i> to deploy gas
into the residence.</i> <i> If we're not going
to have any success</i> with contacting the suspects
with the throw-phone, we're going to go ahead
and throw gas, <i> so if you guys could mask up
and be prepared for that,</i> <i> we'll be ready to go.</i> <i> (Carmody)
All right, Captain. Bye.</i> Get your gas masks out
and get ready, because we're probably
going to deploy gas. (Carmody)
We'll give them a couple chances
to answer the throw-phone. If they don't,
he wants us to do gas, and he wants us chucking it within about 30 seconds
of him giving the order. <i> [line ringing]</i> <i> [line ringing]</i> Yeah, we're ready
to make entry. Let's go ahead
and do it. Saddle up, guys.
We're heading up. <i> We're going up.</i> <i> We're going to hold
on the front door.</i> <i> Hold on. Hold on.</i> We got one coming out.
One coming out. Watch the windows
as well, guys. Get down. Get on the ground. What the [...], man? Get your hand
behind your back. Watch those windows
up top, guys. Watch those windows. Just a second, okay? Who else is in there,
brother? Walk this way.
Walk this way. One other person. <i>(man)
There's one other person.</i> <i> (Carmody)
Okay, listen up, guys.</i> <i> We're going to go ahead
and make entry.</i> <i> Go. Go. Go.</i> Watch these windows.
Watch these windows. Cover high. Cover high.
Cover high. <i> Keep going. Keep going.</i> <i> Where's he at?</i> <i> Where's he at?</i> <i> Is he moving at all?</i> <i> (Carmody)
Okay, go! Go! Go! Go! Go!</i> <i> Move. Move. Move.
Keep going.</i> <i> Coming in behind you.
Where's he at?</i> <i> Okay, can you see him?</i> <i> Has he got blood?</i> <i> (man)
That's dried-up blood on him.</i> <i> He's been there for a minute.</i> Okay, let me go
get my gloves. Where's Douger at? (Carmody)
From the looks of the deceased,
he had been there for some time. It was obvious
that this had occurred quite some time earlier. Well, you never like to see
a police incident end this way. It's certainly unfortunate
for everyone involved: the people that find him, the people that have to deal
with his loss as well. So it's, you know,
unfortunate that someone feels that things
have gotten that bad and that that's the only way
out for them. [gloomy piano music] [percussive music] I'd like to go home,
take a shower, and go to bed, but I don't think
I'm going to get that yet. We've got a speech therapy
appointment with our four-year-old. (woman)
You're going to show us all
where to go? Uh-huh. <i>All right.</i> (Carmody)
My wife and I adopted Caleb
when he was two. Do I get kisses? Our daughter, Katie's,
all grown up. She's 26, and we just felt like
we still had a lot to give, and we wanted to help
a child that was in need. (woman)
Oh, can you push the big button so Mom and Dad can hear? Good job.
Say, "Hi, Mom and Dad." <i> (Caleb)
I showed her my drawings.</i> Oh, my goodness. When we got him,
he was like an infant. He couldn't walk.
He couldn't talk. Three--four. Four. (Carmody)
As a result of some
of the neglect that he had gone through
prior to us adopting him, he has some
developmental delays, and we're hoping
to overcome that, you know, with the speech therapy. "Feath-er." Feath-er. <i>What sound
are we making?</i> Fff. (Carmody)
With Caleb,
it's obviously not easy. I mean, it's still
a bit of a struggle, but he works so hard at it,
you know, we're just looking forward
to when he's caught up and it's not an issue
for him. Say, "See you
next week." All right, bud? <i>(woman)
Happy Thanksgiving.</i> (Huth)
All my brothers being cops, it might be
a natural assumption that we come from a family
of cops, a long line of that, but actually,
the opposite is true. My father was actually
kind of a criminal. [blender whirrs] He wasn't a good man, definitely not
a good role model. Instead of taking on
those traits, we kind of rebelled
against them. Eventually, it led to us
all being cops. All the things that I
experienced made me strong. They made me who I am. I know that with the things
I've been through that there's not a whole lot
that I cannot accomplish. [pager beeping] [siren wailing] The drug enforcement units have been dealing
with this fellow for a while. Again, they don't
know his name. They just know his street name. They met up on the deal--
to do a deal with him, and as soon as he
saw the car, before it could even
get started, he went ahead and took off, so now we're going
to try to chase him down. Somebody try to get ahold
of 690 on this guy. [siren wailing] This guy's got drug warrants
that are years old. He's obviously dangerous,
he's possibly armed, and he's somewhere up here
ahead of us. <i> [man over radio]
Coming back east.</i> Surveillance had
the west coverage, so we're thinking
he probably went to the east. <i> [woman talks over radio]</i> <i> [man over radio]</i> Yeah, he's coming.
Get in the air. We've got the helicopter, going to try to track this guy
from the air. These highways intersect. Every time he takes a turn
and exits real quick, at the last minute,
we've got to try to adjust. I've got myself and my acting
sergeant, Owen Farris, in our vehicles. The rest of my team
is in the van. (man)
815, I'm-- <i> [man over radio]
50?</i> No, 1-5. This guy's driving
a black car, and we think it's a Nissan. This time of day, we got
a lot of cars out on the road, so he can be in any one
of them at this time. <i> [woman talking over radio]</i> <i>I'm going to sit here
for a second</i> at this interchange,
a couple of major highways, and maybe this guy
will pass by us. We'll give him a second and see
if he doesn't come by here. And we're positive
on the Nissan, right? Because I just had
a black Acura that kind of looked like
a Nissan Maxima go by with big wheels
on I-70. This guy might have got away
for now, I think. <i> [radio beeps]</i> [engine revs] <i> [man over radio]
85th Street.</i> <i> He's doing about
100 miles an hour.</i> I'm turning
onto 63rd Street now. Oh, and if you guys
can flip around anywhere on 435 and be
facing northbound. <i> [Farris over radio]
I'm coming up to 63rd.</i> I'm coming. We're going to be westbound
on 40 highway. [siren wailing] He's in this neighborhood
somewhere. That's his car. [helicopter blades whirring] (Huth)
This is so heavily wooded
over here, he could be hiding anywhere. He didn't run through here--
too many spiderwebs still. This guy could be
hiding anywhere. I've only got five
of my personnel out here. We've got a lot of area
to cover in these woods. This is his best chance
for escape. [helicopter blades whirring] With this canopy, we can't even
see the helicopter. There's no way he's going
to see down here. <i> [man over radio]</i> [barking] You have the right
to remain silent. Anything you say can and will
be used against you in court. He took off running, and we chased him
through this neighborhood, and then he got out and bailed
and ran through the woods, and I just tracked him
through the woods as best I could. (Huth)
We jumped him up in the woods. He was hanging back there
under the canopy, tree canopy, to stay away
from the helicopter. So the helicopter
was actually keeping him pinned down,
which was good. Everything worked out good,
you know. It's not something
we do every day. We usually don't traipse
around in the woods. We're more designed
for the urban environment, but this worked out
really well. It's really good
to get him in custody. It's really good
that no one got hurt, and he gets to go
to jail for a while. <i> [electronic beeping]</i> More work. Right back behind you. <i> (Huth)
Okay, got
everybody here?</i> <i> All right, guys,
we've got</i> a Narcotics search warrant
to serve today. <i> Yes on guns,</i> unknown on dogs, <i> yes on kids.</i> <i> The suspect is known
throughout the neighborhood</i> for carrying a firearm, so we want to make sure <i> that we take
special caution.</i> A little background
on this warrant: gang squads
did an investigation <i> of robberies
on the avenue.</i> <i> They've got some suspects
in custody.</i> They got a tip that a gun <i> that was used
in those robberies</i> <i> is at this house,</i> <i> and they have made
a drug buy out of there</i> from our suspect. So we're going
to go in there, execute the drug warrant
in hopes of finding the gun. All right,
dispatch it. All right. About as much as we do. (Farris)
I'm not sure what kind
of reaction we're going to get. This guy's been linked
to a bunch of armed robberies, so it kind of makes it
a little more difficult for us with the kids and guns. Those don't go well together. [clapping] [men yelling] <i> (man)
Police! Search warrant!
Get down! Get down!</i> <i> [clanging]</i> <i> Get down.</i> <i> Get down.</i> <i> Get on the ground.</i> <i>Get back. Get back.</i> <i> Get your hands
on your back.</i> Come here. Young lady,
come here to me. Lay down on the floor. Lay down--
lay down right here. [dog growls] [dog growling] 1910 to all crews,
residence is secure. <i>(woman)
Fine job, fellas.
Fine job.</i> (Huth)
We had a pit bull
that was running around kind of scared
and kind of skittish. It appeared like she's a mom. Doesn't appear too aggressive, but she did
start growling at us, so we went ahead
and deployed a dog stick to get control of her
so we didn't have to shoot her. It seems pretty docile,
but again, it was growling at us, and dogs can change temperaments
very quickly, so we're going to find
a place to secure it so our detective doesn't have
to stand there holding it while we're here
the whole time. Hey, Chuck,
have somebody come around. You woke up and smoked, then walked upstairs to see
what all the commotion was? <i> Yeah.</i> You had to calm down before
you came upstairs, huh? Yes, sir. (Farris)
After we made entry, we found that a bunch of kids
were in the house, but our suspect
wasn't at home. <i> (man)
He lives here.</i> These two guys
don't live here. Just the two
young ladies <i>and that gentleman
over there.</i> (Huth)
We're going to start processing
the residents here, the kids that are here, but our main goal was to find
this gun we're looking for that was used
in these robberies. So far, we've recovered
small amounts of drugs and a holster for a gun, so we're still looking
for a weapon, obviously. Does anybody know
the combination to the safe down there? Hey, you know
the combination to the safe
down in the basement? (Huth)
A couple of my guys
just located a safe down in the basement-- a small safe that no one seems
to know the combination to, so we're going
to bring it out here and use some of our
techniques to open it, see what's inside
of the safe. <i> (man)
You guys sure you don't know
the combination?</i> <i> Last chance.</i> <i> (boy)
Last chance.</i> <i> (Huth)
I think we got
the universal combination.</i> [hammer banging] Oh. We found a safe
that belongs to the suspect that we came here looking for. He's not here. However, his safe is here
with a pair of his pants. They're jean shorts
with U.S. currency. (Huth)
And a lot of cash. We're going to go ahead
and count the cash out, see how much we got there. But most importantly,
we found a .357 Magnum handgun with a speedloader
with some rounds in there locked in the safe, so again,
a very good possibility that's going to be the weapon
that we're looking for in relation to these robberies. Go in back? Yeah. (Huth)
We're placing this subject
under arrest for possession
of a controlled substance. We found marijuana
in the pocket of his pants. Our suspect's 22 years of age. The rest of these folks
are juveniles. You know, the really tragic part
in all this is, these children-- just take them out
of this environment, maybe they'd have a chance
at something better. When I grew up, I was surrounded
by a lot of bad influences, but fortunately,
I was able to overcome them. I only hope these kids
are able to do the same. (Carmody)
Mr. Caleb, I'll be the teacher. Okay. <i>"Sweater."</i> Let's hear you
say it. Sweh-en. What? Sweat-uh. Sweater--
that's excellent. That's two done. Sweatah. (Carmody)
Caleb's doing so well,
it's incredible. It's pretty exciting watching Caleb progress
through his speech therapy. Um, what is this? Is this a tool? Sss-tool. Oh, you did a great job
on that one. [giggles] (Carmody)
We're really happy
and proud of the progress
that he's making. What is that, a, uh-- Scoop of ice cream. A scoop of ice cream? <i>That's great.</i> Every day in the community
where I work, you know, I see kids that come
from bad situations, that don't have the things
that they need, that aren't
in loving environments, and, you know, we're not going
to let that happen with Caleb. Where my jacket? I think it's right there.
