I was on patrol and assisting one of our nearby agencies while they pursued a fleeing vehicle. I'd gotten myself into position to deploy my stop sticks, and as the suspect's car approached, I started to pull my sticks when I noticed the driver was veering toward me, trying to run me over. Fearing for my safety, I got behind my patrol car, drew my gun, and began firing at the driver. The driver continued to flee, so desperate to escape that he nearly hit a second officer. I continued to fire at him, not only for my safety, but for the safety of my fellow officers; however, the suspect was able to avoid being shot and continued to flee.

We were finally able to apprehend the suspect after disabling his car. He was safely apprehended with only minor injuries. If I hadn't been wearing my EarPro® Radio Comm System, I never would've heard my radio traffic so clearly. Due to the intense stress, I know I had auditory exclusion, but I could hear all of my radio traffic crystal clear, thanks to my EarPro earpiece.

Thank you, SureFire, for making such a great product and for keeping officers in mind when creating this kind of equipment. You have a fan for life. Keep up the great work.
