[QUOTE="HoLeChit, post: 4184034, member: 35036"] So, I have been watching a few law enforcement videos on the youtubes.... and I have questions. Luckily, we have some knowledgeable people as well as some LEO's. [MEDIA=youtube]2711ZoU4a0o:280[/MEDIA] In this video, at 4:40 or so, there's a real dumb fella shooting at a cop in a traffic stop. Mid shootout, a car comes driving down the road and stops. throws the car in reverse, and leaves. In this situation, my first reaction was "hit that fool!". If a person in a car came in and instead of driving on, swerved and pinned the shooter against the car, what would the legal repercussions be? [MEDIA=youtube]__4c0IEyuEc[/MEDIA] In this video the cop is wrasslin that land hippo as she is trying to grab the firearm in her pants. The cop asks the bystander to help him cuff her and such. Let say he does help the officer make the arrest, is he protected from lawsuit, kinda like a good Samaritan law protecting someone helping out a victim of a crash on the side of the road? If said bystander was armed, would he be within his rights to protect himself from angry boyfriend returning with a firearm? [/QUOTE]
