Get out of the face. >> Sometimes what looks like a simple traffic stop or a quiet bike arrest becomes a life and death decision in seconds. One man drove a car like it was a weapon with his toddler strapped in the back seat. >> Hey guys, I got someone raming my patrol car. Get out the car. Give me Give me your Show me your hands. Show me your hands. Get out the car. Show me your hands. >> Another raised a gun inches from an officer's face and fired. two suspects, two near tragedies, and two body cams that captured the chaos from start to finish. These aren't just action clips. They're reminders that real officers face real danger. >> Get out the car. Get out the car. Get out the car. Get out the car. Stop will shoot you. >> Not in war zones, but in neighborhoods, not always from criminals with long records, but from men who believe they can outrun responsibility, bullets, or both. And when it all unfolds in real time, there's no room for hesitation. >> 643 man, they just tried to ram me. >> He just went through a fence. June 27th, 2025. Marian County, Florida. Was just after 400 p.m. in Ocala. The sun high, roads busy, kids playing in yards. A typical summer day. Deputies were patrolling the intersection of Silver Pass and Fairway Circle. part of a routine check in a neighborhood. >> We're going eastbound on Silver Road currently. >> Nothing had gone wrong until now. They noticed a silver Kia cruising by. Heavily tinted windows, obscured license plate frame, the decorative ring concealed the state identifier. A violation that could indicate someone hiding more than just numbers. made a ride on Emerald Road. We're going northbound for Mary Camp. >> Deputies didn't rush, circled, watched, assessed, but before they could light up the patrol car, the Kia abruptly whipped into a nearby apartment complex and stopped. The driver, later identified as 24-year-old Jordan Skiing, pulled into a parking spot, then without warning, threw his car in reverse. Bam. He's driving pretty carelessly. I continue. He slammed into the front of the patrol car once and again. One deputy stepped out, his hand moving toward his holster, not to shoot, but to brace, to react. But before any command could be given, Ski launched forward again, narrowly missing a second cruiser and speeding away. From that moment on, the body cam shows a different world. What was just a suspicious stop becomes a full-blown pursuit through public streets. But this wasn't just a reckless driver. There was a one-year-old child in the back seat. His own daughter, unrestrained, unprotected, held hostage not by criminals, but by her father's decisions. A silver Kia barreled through intersections, sliced through fences, and sent up clouds of dirt and grass as it tore across lawns. Shorts, black shirt, camo pants. Get on the ground. There's pain over there waiting on you. At >> one point, the vehicle went airborne, flying off a dip in the road and slamming back down in the middle of traffic. Every bounce, every impact, the baby felt it. Inside the vehicle, deputies would later discover a loaded handgun tucked between seats, marijuana package for sale, and drug paraphernalia, all within reach of that child. But at that moment, 54 people ridiculous. >> None of that was known. All officers knew was that a child was in danger and that Ski was willing to destroy everything in his path to avoid being stopped. For nearly 15 minutes, the pursuit threaded through neighborhoods, forcing families back indoors, neighbors to dive out of the way. Finally, near Southeast 88th Street, deputies saw an opportunity. They initiated a PAT maneuver, spinning the vehicle sideways and pinning it between cruisers and a line of hedges. Skiing bailed, sprinting from the driver's side door and diving into the nearby woods. The child was still in the car, crying alone. Body cams pick up the tension. Go after him. Watch the kid. Check the back seat. As one team chased Ski, others rushed to the car to ensure the child was okay. Through thick brush and trees, Ski pushed forward, ignoring every shouted command to stop and off. >> Get in that car. You ain't getting nothing. >> No, I'm You ain't getting nothing. Get in the car. I didn't double those catch. Thank you. officer shouted, "You're going to get tased." He didn't listen. The taser cracked. Skiing collapsed. He wasn't unconscious, but he was no longer a threat. Cuffed, searched, secured. In the back of a patrol car, Sche finally seemed to realize it was over. The aftermath was brutal. The child was visibly shaken, but unharmed. Officers handed her over to medical personnel and later reunited her with her mother. The items in the car painted a clearer picture. Handgun was loaded. The marijuana wasn't for personal use. It was prepped for distribution. Drug tools and baggies sat beneath the passenger seat. This wasn't a misunderstanding. This was a man on probation for fleeing and eluding trying to escape justice again. And in doing so, he used his own child as a human shield, rammed police vehicles, put innocent drivers, bystanders, and his daughter at extreme risk. Thank you. >> Your keys. >> I don't see any damage on my car, which is shocking. I went through a fence over a street sign. Charges came fast. Aggravated assault on law enforcement, fleeing and eluding, child neglect, drug trafficking, probation violation, and more. But what the public saw, what the body cam revealed was something no charge sheet can capture. The raw tension of trained deputies trying not to shoot. the discipline it took not to open fire when their cruisers were rammed. And the urgency of officers who had to chase a suspect on foot while still making sure a crying child in the back seat didn't become a casualty. This wasn't just about enforcement. It was about restraint, about professionals staying calm, even when the man they were chasing put everyone, including his own child, in the crosshairs. >> No. What's that look like? Oh yeah, there's a magazine sticking out. >> Let me Don't touch it. I'm going to move my car. >> June 22nd, 2025, Rochester, New York. This one didn't start with a car chase, just a man on a bicycle. The man was Edison Estra Cohen, 35 years old. And police weren't just trying to talk. Earlier that same day, David Vasquez, 30, was shot and killed on Oscar Street. Witnesses named Esther Cohen as the shooter. When officers spotted him riding on North Clinton Avenue, they moved quickly, dropped the bike, and ran. Body cam shows officers chasing him down an alley. No sirens, no shouting, just the fast crackle of boots on pavement. >> Okay. Shots fired. Shots fired. Right here. We got Okay. No, he's a guy. Don't let him leave. Don't let him leave. He's good. He's a witness. Quinn, don't let him leave. >> Blur as Tra Cohen pulls a 9mm handgun from just inches away. Fires directly at an officer. Muzzle flash is so close it leaves burn wounds on the officer's face and ears. A second officer doesn't hesitate. He fires back, striking Estramo multiple times. The suspect crumples, but officers don't celebrate. They secure the weapon. They call for medics. They check each other's wounds. Estra Cohoen survives. The officer who was shot at, he does too. Still recovering, still shaken. A few days later, the suspect is indicted. Murder in the second degree. Attempted aggravated murder of a police officer, first-degree robbery, and four counts of illegal weapon possession. Turns out this wasn't his first crime. He'd already been convicted of two felonies last year and skipped sentencing. Now, the system will try again, but the body cam doesn't show. Go step over. He's going to freak. Block him. Block him. Block him. I can't run the guy over. You better stop. He's running. >> War room drama. It shows how close that officer came to dying. Not in a gunfight, but in a split second of silence. In Florida, a toddler became a hostage to speed as her father tore through fences in neighborhoods trying to outrun accountability. In New York, a murder suspect tried to end a police officer's life with a bullet fired from inches away. These weren't chaotic scenes from a war. They were two American neighborhoods, and they didn't start with violence. They started with a simple traffic concern, a quiet bike ride, two officers doing their job, but body cam never lies. It shows how fast the moment can break and how officers without warning must choose between backing off or jumping in. In both cases, lives were saved, but only because training beat panic and courage felt the line. Because what officers walk into is never as small as it seems.
