FBI Chase Ends in Gunfight

The other ran and refused to give up. FBI agents chased after him.

When they reached a dark alley, Special Agent Bob Pertuso noticed movement.

He moved in carefully and saw the man lying on the ground, hit by several bullets. He immediately radioed,

“Suspect is down — send an ambulance.” The wounded man was taken to the hospital.

His condition was critical, but he survived. The task force then reviewed the entire

operation. Hundreds of rounds had been fired during the mission, yet not a single

police officer was injured. An FBI agent said, “Our planning worked. We didn’t expect

such a dangerous chase and gunfight, but when it happened — we handled it well.”
