In our latest episode of "Close Calls," we sit down with Officer Alfredo Lopez to recount a harrowing traffic stop from August 2023. What began as a traffic stop quickly escalated into a life-or-death struggle when the driver pulled out a gun. Officer Lopez bravely wrestled the suspect to the ground, managing to maintain control until backup arrived.

Thankfully, Officer Lopez was not seriously injured. This intense and heroic story is a powerful reminder of the dangers our officers face daily.
