If it’s the one I’m thinking of, I would say if he continued to approach and kept his hands behind his back, then move to a position where the patrol car is between the two of you. It gives the best combination of angled movement with available cover for the scenario. Not a great situation to be in, but not the worst, either.
In this day and age, anybody who comes walking back to your car with that kind of speed and attitude doesn’t have good things in mind for you. If nothing else, moving back and to the side, placing the rear of the cruiser between you, is going to protect you for a little longer if it’s an edged weapon .
Just my $.02. Your mileage may vary. And I thought the trooper did a great job, by the way.[/quote]
Yea, using the car to and waiting for backup was considered the best option.
I thought he did a great job too, but I was just curious to see what people here thought about the hypothetical scenario.
