ANNOUNCER: "Cops" is filmed on location...
...with the men and women of law enforcement.
All suspects are innocent until proven guilty...
...in a court of law.
LYNCH: I grew up here in the Pacific Northwest.
I love Spokane, it's real close to a bunch of lakes,
...huntin' areas, fishing, outdoor activities.
Actually grew up here in the city of Spokane,
...and it's nice to be able to work in a place...
...where I can give back to my community.
So we're gonna stop this bike here.
He's not usin' any of his signals,
...and he's drivin' off sidewalks...
...and all over the road.
– ( RADIO CHIRPS ) – Garland and Cook.
( RADIO CHATTER )
– Hi, how's it goin'? – All right.
Why don't you have a seat on the ground there for me?
I didn't think you were gonna stop.
– Of course I'm gonna stop. – What are you doin' out here?
– Ridin' around. – Just cruisin'?
– Yeah, bored. – You live in the neighborhood?
No.
– Where are you from? – Where am I from?
– Yeah. – Spokane.
Where do you live at in Spokane?
Everywhere, I'm kinda homeless.
– Where's that? – Kinda homeless.
Okay. Just out cruisin' on your bike?
– Yeah. – Cool. Run into anything?
– No. – Nothin'?
Not yet, this is a new one, so...
Hey, you got your ID on you?
Uh, no, I don't.
No? Well, how about your name?
– Randy. – And Randy?
– Yeah? – You been stopped by the police before?
Yeah, in the past.
All right.
I didn't think you were gonna stop, you were goin' off all those jumps.
– I was just out playin' around. – (LAUGHS) Yeah?
All right, Randy, hang tight for me.
Can I... Can I ask a question?
– Yeah, you bet. – Why did I get pulled over?
Well, for one you don't have a helmet. And two, you...
– I thought that was only going in business areas. – What's that?
I thought it was only in, like, commercial or business areas.
Everywhere in the city of Spokane.
– Oh. – And also, you gotta signal your turns.
I know it sounds silly, since you're not in a car,
...but you gotta give hand signals if you're on a bike.
– Oh, really? – Yeah.
– Anything else? – Nope. That's it.
All right, Randy, hang tight.
Uh, we're just gonna make sure Randy doesn't have any warrants.
I'm runnin' the name he gave me right now.
And it looks like he actually provided me with a false name.
And his true identity, David, has an active warrant...
...for a DOC violation.
( RADIO CHATTER )
LYNCH: Copy.
Why don't you take your hand out of your pocket for me, please?
Getting my lighter.
So, Randy, do you go by any other names?
– No. – That's the only one, huh?
– Yeah. – No... No David?
No. No, I have a cousin named David.
– LYNCH: Okay. – I've been through this many times.
– Well, I'll tell you what. – Yes, sir?
David, you do have an active warrant for your arrest.
– Excuse me? – So you're under arrest for a DOC warrant.
All right? So why don't you stand up,
– ...put your hands behind your back for me, please? – I'm not David, though.
Put your hands behind your back.
– Turn around. – I'm not David.
– Put your hands behind your back. – No.
Okay. Put your hands behind your back.
I'm not David.
I'm not David!
( SHOUTING )
– Let go! – Turn around!
Don't grab me!
Get on the ground!
I’m trying to! (GRUNTS)
– ( MUMBLES ) – Put your hands behind your back.
– Get on your belly. – You're under arrest.
Oh... ow.
– Put your left hand out. – Getting 'em out!
Give me one second.
I got it.
– Why am I always... – 'Cause you're not doin' what you're told, man.
– It's too tight. – Sorry. Okay?
I'm out with restriction.
My name's Randy. God damn.
– Why are you runnin'? – Because I been through this, like, a million times.
Do you have anything sharp in your pockets?
– Yes. – What do you have?
– Syringes. – What pocket?
Right one.
Are you injured at all, David?
– ( COUGHS ) – Are you injured at all?
– I think so. (COUGHS) – Do you want medics to check you out?
– Uh... (COUGHS) – All right, David, I'm gonna roll you up to your butt, okay?
I'm gonna roll you to the right.
Okay?
David?
Let's roll him on his side.
– David? – ( GRUNTS )
There you go.
Hey.
43-1-8X, require medics, he's unconscious now.
– You wanna take 'em off? – Yeah, take 'em off.
David?
Or Randy?
All right, his pupils are coming back, that's good.
David, we need to know what you took, so we know how to help you.
He drank some soda?
He might've tried to get rid of whatever he had...
– ...right then and there. – Ate some dope then?
– Yeah. – He's swallowin'.
43... (MUTTERS), just gave a dose of Narcan.
– David? – Is there anything on that that would indicate...
...what he might've ingested?
I think he might've just ingested some meth...
...when he knew he was going to jail.
– Okay, gotcha. – No, he was totally unresponsive.
Now he won't let his hand hit his face.
I did give him a dose of Narcan, 'cause his pupils were pinpoints.
– ( INDISTINCT ) – We did Narcan. They found some meth on him,
...and he wasn't reacting at all.
He was breathin' hard for a while, asked him if he needed medics,
...and then he started kinda dry heaving.
So inside his pockets he had this blue container.
And when I opened it up, small little baggie, a white substance,
...which I believe to be methamphetamine,
...and a small baggie of marijuana came out of it.
So we're thinking that might've been what he ingested,
...and might've caused his medical issue tonight.
When we got him into cuffs, he kinda started gurglin' a little bit,
...dry heavin', and then went unconscious.
So I checked his pupils, I just got some recent training on Narcan,
...they were pinpoint, which is one of the indicators of opiate overdose.
So I administered the Narcan to see if that helped,
...and he started becoming a little more responsive right before medics got here.
Medics checked his pupils again.
They said they were gettin' better, and they were gonna give him more Narcan...
...on the way to the hospital.
Perfect. So they'll go get him the help he needs.
He'll be cleared from the hospital and be goin' back down to jail.
RICHMOND: I worked for the Sheriff's Office...
...for about three years. Usually what I like to take home...
...is just knowing that I got a dangerous person off the street,
...whether it be a burglar, a car thief, whatever that is.
Knowing that that person won't be able to victimize...
...anybody in my community...
...that night is something that I like to take home.
We're headed to a domestic violence call.
Sounds like, uh, an assault occurred,
...and the suspect, uh, ran out the back.
So we're gonna be assisting the K-9 unit here.
( RADIO CHATTER )
Do we know which door he went out of?
– This one. – Okay.
( DOGS BARKING )
– ( MUMBLES ) – MAN: Stop it. Stop it.
Stop it. Stop it.
Show me your hands now!
( DOG BARKING )
– Put your hands up, dude. – All right, put your hands up now!
– Hands up! – Sir, I have nothing.
Roll onto your stomach now. Roll onto your stomach now.
– ( DOG BARKING ) – Put your hands up.
You're good. Okay.
MAN: I'm wearing shorts, I have nothing, sir.
( BARKING CONTINUES )
– ( PANTING ) – I have nothing, sir.
Put your hands behind your back, dude.
( RADIO CHATTER )
– You're under arrest, okay? – ( BARKING CONTINUES )
Roll onto this knee, and you're gonna stand, okay?
MAN: Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
– ( BARKING CONTINUES ) – Stand up.
We're gonna take him this way.
– Can I have my water? – We'll grab it later.
Okay, sir.
OFFICER: Good boy.
( BARKING CONTINUES )
It was my phone and that... the only reason she was mad was 'cause...
...If you could have the medics come to the house, we'll take him out that way.
She found a little bit of porn on my phone.
– Hey, Tyler. Hey, Tyler. – TYLER: Yeah?
RICHMOND: My light's back there if you could grab it.
The only reason that she was pissed off is 'cause she looked...
...at my phone, and she found a little bit of porn.
– She said... – That'll do it, right?
– I looked up a site. – That'll do it. Come on.
And I was over here, and I don't think I deserve this.
– And my phone and everything's over there. – He's gonna grab it for you.
I don't think I deserve that. I got kicked outta my own house that I pay for every day.
– You're under arrest. – What did I do wrong?
– You're under arrest. – For what?
– Assaulting your wife. – I never touched her.
Huh? What happened?
Showed up, and they said, "Yeah, we got good PC for assault."
– Okay. – P.D.
Um... he leapt out the back,
...'cause that door wasn't open when...
...she had locked it.
So it was open.
Went out the back and tracked down, like, three times...
...to that next road. And he was real hot right behind here.
– Uh-huh. – I could tell we're gonna get circling there.
And came across him, he was just laying there...
...in the weeds in the fetal position like this.
– ( MUMBLES ) – No, he was in the... he was in the yard...
...in the weeds.
– Oh, okay. – In the fetal position.
– Okay. – And that was it.
Wouldn't show us his hands at the beginning.
– Okay. – Didn't even acknowledge that we were there.
– Uh-huh. – And then, once the dog latched on...
– ...he gave up. – Uh-huh.
– How come you ran? – MAN: I didn't run.
Okay, how come you left? How come you didn't wait for us?
I... Because she was upset, and she looked at my phone.
And I took my little bottle of whiskey, and I went out there,
...and I heard you guys, and I have a full-time job,
...and I didn't wanna go to jail.
– Did you know she was calling the police? – I did not.
And then she called me and told me, "I'm callin' the cops."
And then that's when you left?
W... Yes. And I walked out.
She's the most beautiful woman in the world...
...to me.
– And... – What are you lookin' at porn for, then?
She's a little bit cold to me.
– She's what? – She's a little cold to me,
...and she doesn't want it as much as I do.
– What'd she say? – So he was takin' her... he asked her to take a...
...or to set the alarm on his phone.
So, she went to go set the alarm for him,
...opened up the phone, and saw a bunch of porn on there or somethin'.
So she went up, confronted him, held it out, asked, "What's this?"
And he went to go grab onto her grab onto the phone.
They started kinda grabbin' back and forth with each... at each other.
At some point, he ended up hittin' her at the head.
Did she have any marks on her or anything?
She's got some blood. She has a cut finger from a previous injury,
...and then she has some blood on her face, there's blood inside the house on the floors.
Um, and then their son saw him, he saw him, hang out... or take off out the door,
...out of the garage, and the door, was open to go into the back yard,
...so he took off from there.
Cool.
– FELVARG: So did you grab onto her at all? – Uh, no.
– To get the phone? – I did not.
– Did you try and get the phone away from her at all? – Nope.
– No? – Nope.
– Okay. – I had my phone on the table,
...and I took the phone,
...and I... she told me to get out, I walked outside, and I...
...and I... I was right there where you guys found me.
All right. Well... we're gettin' a different story from her.
Well, uh, of course, because she found the porn on my phone.
And that's the woman's story, and I did not touch her.
– All right. – Uh, she told me to get the hell out...
So again, though, as far as the blood goes,
...where... where did that blood come from?
'Cause you weren't bleedin' before, the K-9, right?
Well, I have the... from cleaning all the bushes and everything up, and...
– And where are those? – All over my arms.
– Okay. – They're little scratches and everything...
– But I'm not seein' anything that would... – Is there a lot of blood...
– ...in the house? From what? – Well, that's not even bleedin' there,
...you're not bleedin' on the scratches, man.
There's no way I would ever, ever do anything to hurt her.
Well, lettin' you know you're under arrest now for, assault fourth degree, okay?
Domestic violence.
Okay, well...
...I'm gonna put you in a car here and you're gonna be goin' to jail, all right?
Sure.
Porn and booze, right? That'll do it to you.
GRIFFIN: Stockton Police Department, I would say, would be...
...your medium-sized police department.
We have just enough police officers that...
...we can really kinda handle the city of 400,000 people.
But we're not too big that I don't know...
...who the detectives are over in our detectives building.
I'm able to actually get to kinda know...
...everybody in the department.
So right now we're en route to a family disturbance.
It's gonna be over in the, uh... in a little area of Stockton...
...called Boggs Tract.
A female caller called in stating that she was being battered,
...and the line disconnected, and our call takers are unable...
...to get her back on the line.
– Hi. – Hi, how are you?
– What's goin' on? – N... It's okay. He left.
Okay, he left already. Who's he and what happened?
Um, we just got into an argument or fight.
What'd you guys get into an argument or fight about?
Um... because I put him out.
Okay. What's his name?
– His name is Damian... – Damian what?
– Damian... – Damian...?
– Mm-hm. – Okay, and where'd Damian go?
Um, I'm not sure.
Do you know what direction? Did he go in a car? Did he go...
Oh, yeah, he went walking that way, and I think he turned on Modesto,
...and he has on a green sweater.
You two get into a little bit of an argument...
...about you putting him out, and then what happens?
Mm-mm... he... that's about it, he left already, though.
– I mean, he push you, he hit you... – Yeah...
– I mean, come on, though, you got... – Yeah.
Your lips are all cut up, so...
...so where'd he hit you?
It's... It's all right, he's left already.
Hey, can you guys get a 937? Um, he went off walkin'
...in that direction, uh, westbound, and she thinks he turned onto Modesto.
Um, it looks like we're g...
– On foot? – Yeah, on foot.
MAN: He ran over here and jumped in the bushes, I think.
Ran over here and jumped in the bushes over here?
MAN: He hopped the fence over there.
So, this guy saw that he made it...
...across the street and he jumped into the bushes.
In these bushes over here.
OFFICER: I heard some... somethin' in the bushes over here, too.
All right. We got an entrance right here.
Ooh!
Dug in here.
Hey! Show me your hands, man!
Show me your hands right now!
Show me your hands!
Put 'em out towards me right now!
Show me your hands!
I cannot see your right hand. Show it to me!
– What do you got, guys? – Right here, right underneath the tree.
I got it.
I'll take care of it, guys.
– Damian, you got anything on you you shouldn't have? – No.
– Why don't you... – Come on.
...sit up.
All right, come on.
We're gonna come out this way.
There's a little hole over there if you guys wanna meet us.
Prior to having the domestic violence charge,
...he was wanted for two felony arrest warrants and one felony bench warrant.
Damian, I'm Officer Griffin of the Stockton Police Department.
I went out there and was the one that ended up talkin' to your girl.
Miss, uh... right?
Am I saying her last name right?
– That's not my girl. – She ain't your girl?
I don't know what you're talkin' about.
– I just know I had a warrant. – You know you have warrants?
– She hit me first. – Okay. Well, here's the thing, man.
She tells me that, her boyfriend,
– ...who's also the father, of her six-month... – Yeah, I don't know...
No, no, I know, hold on, just hear me out, just hear me out.
Just hear me out. So she tells me that her boyfriend,
...who's wearing a green sweatshirt, gray shorts,
...darker skin, short hair, and a tattoo on his neck,
...had just socked her in the mouth... hit her in the mouth with a fist,
...because she was kicking him out of the house, 'cause you guys were... or her and her boyfriend...
...were arguing too much and... she was hurt.
– So? – Well, not me.
– You didn't hit her in the face? – I didn't hit her in the face.
Then why would she be giving me your name?
Why would she be giving me your description?
You probably got... what... wh... nah, there's a lotta people with these kinda ladies.
Is really... Probably don't... Y... Tell her to come over here.
– Okay. – Whoever she is, tell her to come over here...
...and identify me.
I hit you.
I don't... I never hit her.
What's that on her lip, man?
– I never hit her. – Why does she have a busted lip, then?
You said she was gonna identify me, I didn't hit her.
– Okay. – I didn't hit her.
– Is this the guy? – DAMIAN: It's not me.
Don't you have something you wanna say to him?
DAMIAN: I hit you.
Here's the thing, man, you said that you're not related to her...
– No, I said... – ...in any way whatsoever... No, you said...
...that you are not... she is not six months pregnant with your baby,
...she... you said that she's not in any way, shape or form, your girl...
You're nutty, I said, she not, so what?
– So this girl is not related to you in any way whatsoever? – No, no, if I say she not,
...she not. That's the... you can't...
She's sayin' she's six months pregnant with your kid, man.
Man, she didn't identify me, I didn't hear it in front of my face.
She never said that. So I never heard it.
You don't have anything you wanna say to him?
– She don't know me! – So you don't know him?
So here's the thing, I'm gonna close this door.
Why don't we step back over here towards my car?
So... am I wrong? Do I have the wrong person?
– No, you don't. – No, I have the right person?
– Mm-hm. – You don't have anything you wanna say to him?
– Um-um. – Okay. Why is he saying all this stuff?
– 'Cause he's crazy. – 'Cause he's crazy?
– Mm-hm. – Why is he crazy?
I don't know, I think he's mentally ill.
And that's the one you're sayin' explicitly punched you in the face,
...and then left?
– Right? – Mm-hm.
– "Mm-hm" means yes, I'm assuming? – Mm-hm.
Okay. Let me open up the door, I'll let you jump on in.
We talked over, there about domestic violence, and how important it is...
...in the State of California. Unfortunately I see more times than not, that battered women...
...are afraid to prosecute the people that are hurting them...
...because they love 'em, whether it's because they're dependent...
...on the lifestyle that they have. If he's hurting you, if you're scared of him,
...you should really think about prosecuting this guy and testifying against him.
Our witness protection program, the restraining orders that we can get,
– ...all of that. – No, it's okay.
No, it's okay? All right.
All right, thank you.
She's scared.
That's the hard part about these situations.
132 and Bush, I've got him at gunpoint.
DISPATCHER: Okay, gunpoint, 132 and Bush.
Cover is code three.
