[00:00:38]All right.

[00:00:50]No. No.

[00:01:03]What is it?

[00:01:19]Colossians 3:13, Paul the Apostle says, "Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another."

[00:01:28]And listen to this.

[00:01:30]Forgive as the Lord has forgiven you. Because no matter what someone has done to us, no matter how bad it's been, we got to learn how to do what Jesus did. And that's to forgive unconditionally.

[00:01:52]See, that's one of the main building blocks of the foundation of becoming a stronger, more obedient Christian. Amen.

[00:02:01]>> Well, what do you say we praise the Lord with some music? Huh?

[00:02:16]That's no.

[00:02:29]Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a rich like me.

[00:03:34]I once was lost but now I'm found.

[00:03:44]Was blind but now I see.

[00:03:52]Where have you been? You said you would be back by 5:00 p.m.

[00:03:56]>> I got tied up.

[00:03:57]>> You always get tied up.

[00:03:59]>> Where's my dinner?

[00:04:00]>> I threw it in the trash. It got cold an hour ago.

[00:04:02]>> You >> You had it with me. I've had it with you.

[00:04:05]>> It was grace that taught my heart to fear.

[00:04:15]and grace my fears.

[00:04:19]Release.

[00:04:21]I want you out of here.

[00:04:23]>> Was my place.

[00:04:24]>> Get out. I want you out.

[00:04:26]>> What are you doing? Packing. What are you doing?

[00:04:29]>> What are you doing?

[00:04:30]>> I said get out.

[00:04:31]>> Give me the gun. Give me the gun.

[00:04:33]>> Get out.

[00:04:33]>> GIVE ME THE GUN. GIVE ME THE GUN.

[00:04:35]>> GET OUT.

[00:04:48]Through many ders, to snares I have already his grace have brought me safeless and grace will lead me home.

[00:05:29]>> Thank you. So, you still seeing that guy over in Parkersville?

[00:05:33]>> No, he's uh down the road. Couldn't handle dating a cop, I guess.

[00:05:40]He said me being on the job, I was too assertive. We felt like our roles were reversed, whatever that means.

[00:05:46]>> 241 had a report of shots fired at 5120 Oak Tree Road. The neighbor reports one shot heard from location.

[00:05:56]>> Copy that. She was in route.

[00:06:06]Amazing grace.

[00:06:09]How sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me.

[00:06:23]I once was lost, but now I'm found.

[00:06:33]Was blind, but now I see.

[00:06:48]Come on, let's give Kelly another hand.

[00:06:50]Thank you.

[00:06:52]Well, that concludes our service tonight. Oh, wait, wait, wait. Before you leave, we still need some volunteers for the upcoming picnic. So, if you can help, just see one of my girls here.

[00:07:03]Just girls, stand up. Come on, girls.

[00:07:05]Stand up. There you go. Elizabeth or Naomi, just let them know how you can help. Okay. God bless you guys. Good morning, 41. Update on your shots fire call. An additional caller reports that a 10 SUV, one male occupant, was last seen leaving the location at a high rate of speed. No further.

[00:07:28]>> It's probably just some yo-yo shooting at the moon. No sense in wasting a good cup of Joe on that.

[00:07:38]>> Two, Adam 41, we have that vehicle northbound on Route 27. Show us in pursuit.

[00:08:04]It looks like he's reaching for something.

[00:08:06]>> When we get this guy stopped, watch your back.

[00:08:13]So, girls, did uh you get anybody to sign up to help with the picnic?

[00:08:17]>> Oh, yeah. Just saw the uh the usual folks >> to item 41. The suspect is eastbound on Elm Court. Copy 41.

[00:08:33]>> Don't Don't tell me Mrs. Parker offered to bring her horrible, horrible cornbread again. Dad >> to Adam 41. The suspect is now southbound on Ivy Street.

[00:08:50]>> Roger. 41. Southbound Ivy.

[00:08:52]>> Okay. You remember last year when we used it to scrub all the pots and pans so bad.

[00:09:00]>> This guy's going to bail. Get ready.

[00:09:02]>> How do you know?

[00:09:03]>> He's slowing down.

[00:09:16]Two Adam 41 is in foot pursuit of the male occupant through the parking lot of the Ivy School's church.

[00:09:24]like young lady that would help you with something, young man.

[00:09:48]>> Hold on, hold on, hold on. We can't just run in with possible civilians in there.

[00:09:51]This just became a barricaded suspect situation. Go around back and watch the rear. I'll get with dispatch and get more units here.

[00:10:01]What's going on, son?

[00:10:05]>> Whoa, whoa, whoa.

[00:10:06]>> Get him or I'll shoot you.

[00:10:08]>> Just tell me what's going on, son.

[00:10:10]>> I said get back.

[00:10:12]>> Daddy, daddy, listen to him.

[00:10:16]>> Okay. Okay.

[00:10:20]Two item 41 to dispatch.

[00:10:22]>> Our armed suspect is now barricaded inside the church with possible civilians.

[00:10:26]>> What's the ETA on additional units?

[00:10:28]>> 2841. Additional units are less than five.

[00:10:36]>> Sit down.

[00:10:42]>> I said sit down.

[00:10:43]>> Okay. Okay. Go quiet, girls.

[00:10:54]Partner, I'm set up here in the back.

[00:10:56]>> Copy that. Get ready.

[00:10:57]>> This could go sideways any second. If it does, we're going in fast.

[00:11:02]>> 104, I'm ready.

[00:11:05]>> That's right. They're coming for you.

[00:11:09]>> Just be quiet.

[00:11:11]Just wait a minute to think.

[00:11:17]>> If we do go in and the shooting starts, >> what your crossfire?

[00:11:21]>> Listen, why don't you go out the back door? You still can get away.

[00:11:25]>> Get away. Those aren't fire trucks pulling up out there, lady.

[00:11:28]>> No. No. You still have time. Well, we'll tell the police that you never even were in here. It'll be like none of this ever happened.

[00:11:34]>> Like none of it ever happened.

[00:11:36]>> Just be quiet.

[00:11:49]Whatever you did, it can't be that bad.

[00:11:53]>> Please be quiet.

[00:11:54]>> Maybe we can help you.

[00:11:56]>> You can shut up.

[00:11:59]That's what you can do. All right.

[00:12:21]Hey, Lieutenant. They called you out on this one, huh?

[00:12:23]>> Yeah. I got to stop answering my phone at night. What do you got, Mike?

[00:12:27]>> Well, my partner and I got a call of shots fired at a house on the west side of town. We thought it was just some guy shooting at the boogeyman, but then we get an update that he's fleeing the location in a tan SUV.

[00:12:37]>> All right, let's check it out.

[00:12:39]>> The guy blows a stop sign right in front of us. We chase him here. He bails into the church, grabs three people. We set up a perimeter, and here we are.

[00:12:47]>> You sure it's only three hostages? And do we know who they are?

[00:12:50]>> Yeah, we talked to uh one of the church folks who helped set up after the service. He said that the only ones left inside were the pastor and his two daughters. It's >> Pastor Taylor. Know him? He's a good man. So, who does this beauty belong to?

[00:13:06]>> It comes back to a uh James Davies who conveniently resides at the same house our shots fire took place.

[00:13:14]>> Yeah, well, that is convenient. Maybe we should get a unit over there. Make sure no one got shot.

[00:13:19]>> Already got one. Just waiting for an update.

[00:13:21]>> That could work.

[00:13:22]>> We've got a command post set up in a room on the far side of the church.

[00:13:26]>> You got all escape routes blocked off?

[00:13:28]All the points of Igorus are locked down. He's not getting out of that sanctuary.

[00:13:32]>> All right. Show me where we're set up.

[00:13:41]>> What's your name?

[00:13:44]>> Does it matter?

[00:13:46]>> It It does.

[00:13:49]>> It's Kurt.

[00:13:51]>> Hi, Kurt. This is my father. He's the pastor of the church. His name's Russell Taylor.

[00:14:00]>> Young man.

[00:14:05]>> And this here is my younger sister. Her name is Naomi.

[00:14:10]And I'm Elizabeth.

[00:14:13]>> That's great. We can all be buddies.

[00:14:19]>> Show me where you have our guys position on the perimeter.

[00:14:22]>> Okay. We've got two guys coming in right here. Then these two will flank. What we'll do is we'll push towards the north.

[00:14:39]You come here.

[00:14:41]>> No, no, no. Whoa, whoa. What do you want with my daughter?

[00:14:44]>> Settle down, old man. I just need her to go to the door and peek outside and tell me what the police are doing.

[00:14:49]>> No. No way. I'll go.

[00:14:52]>> No, I said her.

[00:14:56]It's okay. It's okay. I'll be fine. I'll be fine.

[00:15:02]>> Naomi, I need you to look through that door and tell me what the police are doing.

[00:15:16]And if you run, I'll shoot your family.

[00:15:22]>> You understand?

[00:15:29]This is not just sitting out there.

[00:15:56]>> How many?

[00:16:03]>> Lieutenant, I've got a female at the door.

[00:16:06]>> Do you have any eyes on the suspect?

[00:16:09]>> Negative. Just the one female.

[00:16:11]>> Copy that. Keep watching for our bad guy.

[00:16:15]>> Roger that, Lieutenant.

[00:16:19]>> It looks like a lot, but it's really dark, so it's hard to tell. Any contact information for our suspect of the hostages?

[00:16:36]>> No sale for our bad guy, but we did get a sale number for one of our victims, a Elizabeth Roberts. Dispatch is trying to reach her now through 911. They'll link us to it once they make contact.

[00:16:51]What's that noise?

[00:16:58]>> It's my phone going off.

[00:16:59]>> Well, shut it off.

[00:17:02]>> Does anyone else have a phone on him?

[00:17:03]>> No.

[00:17:04]>> No.

[00:17:04]>> No.

[00:17:07]>> Probably just Bob calling to see if we locked up the church.

[00:17:15]>> Who is Who's calling?

[00:17:18]It's 911.

[00:17:21]>> 911?

[00:17:21]>> Yes, it it says 911.

[00:17:27]>> Probably the police.

[00:17:29]>> You think?

[00:17:32]>> Should I answer it?

[00:17:33]>> Hold on a second. I'm thinking.

[00:17:36]>> Come on, man. It's not like they don't know we're in here. Really?

[00:17:43]>> All right. Just don't give them any information on me.

[00:17:48]Hello.

[00:17:49]Yeah, this is Elizabeth.

[00:17:52]Yeah, we're in the church.

[00:17:56]No, I can't say. He instructed me not to.

[00:18:02]>> Okay, they want to talk to you.

[00:18:05]>> No way. They can talk to you, not me.

[00:18:10]>> He says no, but he's letting me talk to you.

[00:18:17]Don't give them any information on me.

[00:18:18]Put that thing on speaker.

[00:18:25]>> They're transferring us to the lieutenant.

[00:18:33]>> We have one of our victims, Elizabeth Roberts, on the line. The suspect refuses to talk.

[00:18:39]>> Elizabeth, are you there? This is Lieutenant Morgan with the police department.

[00:18:42]>> Can you hear me?

[00:18:43]>> Yes. Uh, yes, we can. You're on speaker phone.

[00:18:48]>> Does that include James Davies?

[00:18:51]>> No. He said his name was Kurt.

[00:18:54]>> No, we believe it's James Davies who's in there with you. We have his SUV out here in the parking lot.

[00:19:04]>> Yes, Mr. Davies is here.

[00:19:06]>> I said no information on me. Now hang that thing up.

[00:19:08]>> No, no, DON'T HANG UP. HANG UP THE PHONE.

[00:19:10]>> NO, NO, NO, NO. DON'T hang up.

[00:19:14]Lost her >> now. What are you going to do?

[00:19:21]>> Going to text her my direct line so she can call me right back.

[00:19:30]See what happens.

[00:19:40]Looks like our new police friend sent us his contact info.

[00:19:51]>> So, why did you give us a fake name?

[00:19:56]>> Holding you hostage at gunpoint. Think I'm going to really give you my real name?

[00:20:02]>> So, what now?

[00:20:05]What happens from here?

[00:20:09]>> We wait.

[00:20:12]>> Wait for what?

[00:20:15]Wait for them to forget about you.

[00:20:18]>> If only we wait until I can figure out a way out of here.

[00:20:26]>> And how's that going to happen?

[00:20:40]But what then? What happens once you get out of here?

[00:20:43]>> Then I'm gone. Not your problem anymore, right?

[00:20:48]>> You think they're just going to let you go?

[00:20:52]>> They're not going to wait out there forever.

[00:20:57]>> Not worth it.

[00:21:00]Do you really believe that?

[00:21:04]You think the police will just pack up and go home?

[00:21:12]I'm sure they got families they can go home to.

[00:21:25]How about you, son?

[00:21:28]You have any family to go home to?

[00:21:36]>> Not anymore.

[00:21:45]Might as well get comfortable.

[00:21:48]We're going to be here a while.

[00:22:15]Okay, Lieutenant, the tactical team is ready to go. Our plan is to kick the back door, flashbang the place, and subdue Mr. babies.

[00:22:24]>> Okay, Rose, just keep your guys ready, okay? We're really not at that point right now. All right, >> roger that.

[00:22:35]>> He gets a little excited.

[00:22:38]>> All right, we have any more guys we can pay her?

[00:23:01]Looks like the police want to get us some dinner.

[00:23:16]Tell him I said okay.

[00:23:21]that I want an unarmed officer to drop the food off inside the door, then leave.

[00:23:28]And that if I see any other police officers, I'm going to shoot the old man.

[00:23:39]And also, we're going to be sending the sister to get it.

[00:23:44]>> Come on.

[00:23:44]>> No funny stuff.

[00:23:45]>> Let me just get the food.

[00:23:47]>> No. No.

[00:23:48]You're going to stay here with me and daddy.

[00:23:52]Call him >> Morgan.

[00:24:05]>> Yes. Hi, this is Elizabeth.

[00:24:08]>> Hey, Rose. I got her back.

[00:24:15]>> Elizabeth, how you guys doing? Listen, he said it's okay to bring the food to the front door, >> but he wants an undorm officer to leave it inside.

[00:24:25]Okay.

[00:24:28]>> Is that it?

[00:24:33]>> No.

[00:24:35]He says that if you try anything, he'll shoot my father.

[00:24:41]>> Elizabeth.

[00:24:43]Elizabeth, you there?

[00:24:48]Give me something, Eve. Huh? Anything?

[00:24:51]>> Let's hope they don't try anything.

[00:24:56]>> What's wrong with him?

[00:24:58]>> I don't know. It just started.

[00:25:00]>> Sit down.

[00:25:01]>> He has a bad heart. I >> said sit down.

[00:25:03]>> He's having a heart attack.

[00:25:06]>> Dad. Oh, Dad.

[00:25:09]>> Please, we have to do something.

[00:25:10]>> Dad, it's Oh, no. Please give me my phone. Please, I have to do something. Please give me my phone.

[00:25:24]>> Come in closer.

[00:25:26]>> Either shoot me or give me my phone.

[00:25:28]>> Oh, no.

[00:25:37]>> All right.

[00:25:39]Funny stuff.

[00:25:43]and come get your dad and that's it.

[00:25:48]No cops.

[00:25:50]>> Just give me my phone, please.

[00:25:57]>> Big problem.

[00:26:01]>> Morgan here.

[00:26:04]>> Yes, this is Elizabeth.

[00:26:07]We think my father's having a heart attack.

[00:26:10]>> Elizabeth, don't go away. Don't go away.

[00:26:14]>> Mike, get in here right now.

[00:26:16]>> Elizabeth, you sure he's having a heart attack?

[00:26:18]>> Yes. Please, you've got to help him.

[00:26:21]>> Okay, just calm down. Now, is James going to release him?

[00:26:25]>> Yes, he'll release him, but no cops.

[00:26:29]>> I can't do that.

[00:26:30]>> Why not? He says it's okay.

[00:26:34]>> I can't let paramedics go into an armed situation. James could take them hostage as well.

[00:26:41]They're not going to send the paramedics in because they think you're going to take them hostage.

[00:26:49]>> Please tell him I won't.

[00:26:54]>> He said he will not.

[00:26:59]>> My partner and I will go in unarmed.

[00:27:03]>> Elizabeth, hold on for one minute.

[00:27:08]Okay.

[00:27:11]You >> sure? You know, I can't force her to go in there exposed like that.

[00:27:17]>> Lieutenant, we know the risk, but we got to get that old man out.

[00:27:22]>> Lieutenant Morgan, what's going on?

[00:27:28]>> They're up to something. Hang up the phone.

[00:27:30]>> Plus, it'll give us a chance to look around and scope the place out. If we got to go in later, that intel will be helpful.

[00:27:40]Okay, just keep your body armor around, get your partner ready, and grab a gurnie from fire.

[00:27:46]>> No, please. My dad NEEDS >> HANG UP THE PHONE.

[00:27:50]>> ELIZABETH, you still there?

[00:27:51]>> Yes. Yes. Yes, we're here.

[00:27:56]>> All right, put me on speaker. I want to talk to James.

[00:28:00]>> Okay.

[00:28:01]Okay. Go ahead, >> James. This is what's going to happen.

[00:28:07]I'm sending in two unarmed officers with a stretcher. They're going to get Pastor Taylor and they're going to bring him out.

[00:28:11]>> Do you hear me, James?

[00:28:12]>> Yes, he can hear you.

[00:28:15]>> Okay, James. My goal here tonight, make sure that we have a peaceful resolution to this. I'm going to tell you right now, if you try to harm my officers in any way, my tactical team will be in there in two seconds and they will end this.

[00:28:34]He understands.

[00:28:39]>> My guys will be there soon.

[00:28:42]>> Keep your dad comfortable.

[00:29:00]Sit right now. I know what they're doing.

[00:29:08]Here's what's going to happen in here.

[00:29:11]You come here.

[00:29:16]Hey, if y'all want me to let them come in here and take him, then come here.

[00:29:24]All right, I need you to go to the door and come back and tell me everything the cops are doing.

[00:29:30]>> If you try anything, I'm going to shoot your family. Do you understand?

[00:29:34]>> Yes.

[00:29:34]>> Go.

[00:29:38]Come here.

[00:29:40]>> No. Please. Please. My dad needs me.

[00:29:43]>> Y'all aren't listening. If y'all want me to let him go, then come here.

[00:29:49]All right, >> let me go.

[00:29:55]>> Stop fighting. You're going to be my little insurance policy. Okay, >> I'm not going to hurt you. All right, >> there's two police officers coming towards the door at the stretcher.

[00:30:09]>> Any guns?

[00:30:11]>> I can't see any.

[00:30:14]>> Sit down.

[00:30:18]Yeah, that should do it. Right. Call HQ.

[00:30:21]Give him an update.

[00:30:22]>> Okay, copy that, sir.

[00:30:30]>> Hey, sir. If I don't speak her, tell them the situation. If they try anything, I will shoot you.

[00:30:40]>> Hello, >> Elizabeth. It's Lieutenant Morgan.

[00:30:44]My guys are at the door now.

[00:30:47]>> They're going to knock when I tell them to, but I want you to stay in the line and tell me when it's safe for them to go in.

[00:30:51]>> Okay. He says that they can come in.

[00:30:56]>> Also, >> what is it?

[00:31:00]>> That he has a gun pointed right at me and he's going to shoot me if they try anything.

[00:31:09]>> Can he hear me?

[00:31:13]Yes. Yes, he can.

[00:31:16]All >> right, James, I want you to listen to me very carefully.

[00:31:20]No one needs to get hurt here.

[00:31:23]>> No one else needs to get shot this evening. My guys are not going to try anything. They are there just to get the pastor.

[00:31:31]>> Send them in.

[00:31:33]>> You can send them in.

[00:31:36]>> Thank you.

[00:31:43]Rose, you there?

[00:31:45]>> Go ahead, Lieutenant.

[00:31:47]>> All right, it's a go. Suspect has a female hostage at gunpoint. So, I want you to get in and get out.

[00:31:55]>> Our priorities tonight get the pass to the medical and notes escalate situation.

[00:32:01]>> Copy that.

[00:32:07]It's never easy.

[00:32:14]>> Come in.

[00:32:29]How's it going in here?

[00:32:33]>> Tell him to shut up.

[00:32:35]>> He wants you to be quiet.

[00:32:40]>> How long has he been like this?

[00:32:43]>> I said for him to shut up.

[00:32:46]>> He's only been like this for a few minutes.

[00:32:52]>> Listen, pal. We came in here unarmed as you directed.

[00:32:56]>> All right, we're doing what you want, but the doctors are going to need this information to treat this man.

[00:33:01]Now, does he have a history of heart problems?

[00:33:06]>> Yes, he takes heart medicine. I don't I don't know what kind, though. But it's on file at the drugstore.

[00:33:13]>> Okay, that's important to know.

[00:33:20]>> That's enough to own the girl. He says that he wants you to leave.

[00:33:32]>> How about you let us take one of the daughters out?

[00:33:35]>> This could be this man's last night and and one of them should be with him.

[00:33:41]>> No way.

[00:33:42]>> Please. Please. I'll stay with you.

[00:33:48]>> All right.

[00:33:48]>> Come on. It's the right thing to do.

[00:33:51]It's their father.

[00:33:53]Please, you still have me.

[00:33:55]They're not going to come in here if you still love me.

[00:34:00]>> All right.

[00:34:01]But all she can go. Come on.

[00:34:04]>> Elizabeth, come on.

[00:34:05]>> I can't go without you.

[00:34:08]Go.

[00:34:11]>> Daddy needs you. I'm going to be fine.

[00:34:15]>> Come on.

[00:34:15]>> Please don't hurt my sister.

[00:34:36]How would you describe the suspect?

[00:34:38]>> You know, I know you won't believe this, but I don't think he wants to hurt anybody.

[00:34:44]I think he's just more scared and confused than anything.

[00:34:48]I got the same impression when I was inside. Boss, >> I'm sorry, Lieutenant, but we've got the pastor stabilized and we have to head to the ER.

[00:34:55]>> Yeah.

[00:34:57]>> Thank you for saving my father and I.

[00:35:01]>> No, it's it's it's all right. It's all right.

[00:35:03]>> Look, I'm going to send an officer to the hospital to uh get another statement. Okay.

[00:35:08]>> Thank you. Wait, um what did James do?

[00:35:12]Did he hurt someone?

[00:35:15]No, he uh actually we're just chasing him for some traffic warrants.

[00:35:26]>> Thank you.

[00:35:47]traffic warrants.

[00:35:50]>> After what she's been through, not about to tell her that her sister's being held hostage by a guy who just shot his girlfriend tonight.

[00:35:57]Let's go.

[00:36:05]>> What?

[00:36:07]>> Nothing.

[00:36:13]Why are you doing this?

[00:36:17]>> What? Hiding in here from the cops?

[00:36:19]Carrying a gun? Keeping you here? What?

[00:36:21]>> All of the above.

[00:36:25]>> It's a long story. You shouldn't concern yourself with it.

[00:36:31]>> Well, it doesn't really look like we're going anywhere anytime soon.

[00:36:37]And I'm sorry, but when you came in here and you stuck that gun in my face, you made it my concern.

[00:36:51]Like I said, you shouldn't worry yourself with it. Just sit there and be quiet.

[00:37:01]>> I also want to say thank you.

[00:37:04]>> For what?

[00:37:08]for letting them take my father and sister out.

[00:37:15]>> I hope your dad's okay.

[00:37:22]>> Thanks.

[00:37:30]>> Time to try and make contact again.

[00:37:33]>> What's the plan?

[00:37:36]I'm going to see if they're still hungry.

[00:37:54]>> Looks like they're getting impatient out there.

[00:37:58]>> No, just getting us some food.

[00:38:01]>> Offering us dinner again.

[00:38:03]Yeah, I'm pretty thirsty.

[00:38:15]>> Looks like they're still hungry. Did you guys get that pizza and sodas?

[00:38:20]>> Yeah. Um, two pieces and a six-ack of pop.

[00:38:23]>> Excellent.

[00:38:32]Hey, what's going on?

[00:38:35]>> Nothing. Just ordering us some food.

[00:38:40]>> Huh?

[00:38:42]What does it say?

[00:38:44]I asked her if he could see what she was texting, and the reply was no.

[00:38:49]>> Well, that's that's great.

[00:38:52]>> There's a bathroom. Tell her to get to the window. We can pull her out and do an extraction from there.

[00:38:58]and in this thing.

[00:39:07]>> Did you tell her?

[00:39:08]>> I told her that the food is on its way.

[00:39:13]>> Look, there's no way our bad guy is letting her text without him watching.

[00:39:19]Uh, >> see, that's why you get paid the big bucks, Lieutenant.

[00:39:23]>> Yeah, right.

[00:39:26]I do like your bathroom idea.

[00:39:31]>> Get your guys ready. I'll see if I can get her in there.

[00:39:34]>> Luda.

[00:39:36]>> Oh, and Mike.

[00:39:38]>> Yeah, Lieutenant.

[00:39:39]>> Have one of your guys stop by store and pick up some female items.

[00:39:45]>> Female items?

[00:39:47]>> Yeah, female items. You know, freshen up stuff. Just Just do it. I'll explain later.

[00:39:53]>> Copy that.

[00:40:08]What's wrong?

[00:40:10]>> It's on its way.

[00:40:13]>> I'm sorry, but I'm going to need you to stand next to me again.

[00:40:25]us.

[00:40:29]Okay, come in.

[00:40:36]You can sit the food right here.

[00:40:41]And then he says you can step out.

[00:40:54]What's this?

[00:41:12]How am I supposed to know? Maybe condiments, salt, pepper, napkins.

[00:41:29]That's for you.

[00:41:57]Probably should have had you test this first in case they drugged it or something.

[00:42:15]To be honest with you, I was just really hungry.

[00:42:51]You never thought you'd be sitting in a room with a lunatic like me tonight.

[00:42:57]>> No.

[00:43:02]No, I I don't think you're a lunatic.

[00:43:07]I think you're just some guy that got himself into trouble and took a wrong turn somewhere.

[00:43:16]>> Wrong turn.

[00:43:19]That's one way of putting it.

[00:43:23]So, my wrong turn started when I was born.

[00:43:26]I've been on the wrong path ever since.

[00:43:31]Did you have a rough childhood?

[00:43:33]>> You could say that.

[00:43:39]>> My dad got locked up when I was five.

[00:43:47]My mom died when I was 12.

[00:43:52]Was pretty much raised by the streets.

[00:43:58]Have you ever gone to church?

[00:44:08]I got to be quite honest.

[00:44:11]This is the first time I've ever stepped foot inside a church.

[00:44:20]>> It's quite fitting, if you ask me.

[00:44:24]fitting.

[00:44:30]>> What do you mean by it's fitting that you're in a church?

[00:44:36]>> You know who's out there?

[00:44:39]I'm surrounded by cops.

[00:44:42]I'm holding you against your will. I mean, how do you think this is going to end?

[00:44:47]>> How is it going to end?

[00:44:50]>> Well, I'm not going to give up.

[00:44:53]And I know they're not going anywhere.

[00:44:55]I've got one gun and they have 20. Do the math.

[00:45:01]>> So that's it.

[00:45:05]You came in here and did this to my family and me just so that you can be killed and end it all?

[00:45:14]Well, why wait for the cops to come and do it? You've got a gun. Why don't you do it yourself so I could go home and be with my family? It's not an option for me.

[00:45:25]>> What's the difference?

[00:45:27]>> Cuz my mom killed herself.

[00:45:34]>> She committed suicide.

[00:45:40]She ended her life and left me all alone.

[00:45:47]>> I'm so sorry.

[00:45:51]Nobody in this world cares whether I live or die.

[00:45:55]What's it matter?

[00:45:58]>> For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.

[00:46:02]>> What's that?

[00:46:07]>> It's a Bible verse. It's Romans 3:23.

[00:46:12]>> What's it mean?

[00:46:15]>> It means that we're all sinners.

[00:46:18]bigger than others.

[00:46:21]>> Sinning is sinning.

[00:46:24]God doesn't rank it.

[00:46:28]And he forgives each and every one of us the same. We just simply have to ask.

[00:46:35]>> How do you know that?

[00:46:38]>> Because he told me so.

[00:46:42]>> You talk to God.

[00:46:44]>> Yeah, I do. I I talk to him every day.

[00:46:50]>> Then he talks back >> just like some voice from the sky.

[00:46:58]>> No, he actually talks to me through this >> talking book.

[00:47:05]>> Yeah, in a way I guess the Bible is a talking book.

[00:47:12]James, these are his words.

[00:47:19]This is his message to us and it's a message of peace, love, and forgiveness.

[00:47:36]That may work for some people, but if there's really a heaven and a hell, I know where I'm headed.

[00:47:48]>> No, you don't need to.

[00:47:49]>> I've had enough talking.

[00:47:59]>> I really need to go to the lady's room.

[00:48:02]>> No, not now. We can wait.

[00:48:06]I've been waiting hours.

[00:48:09]I I really need to go to the lady's room.

[00:48:16]>> Where is it?

[00:48:18]>> It's right down the hall. I can be quick.

[00:48:26]>> Come on.

[00:48:30]Okay.

[00:48:34]But I have to go in there with you.

[00:48:36]>> That's fine.

[00:48:56]>> You can use that one.

[00:49:02]Do you think you could just turn around?

[00:49:04]Maybe face the other way.

[00:49:06]>> I don't want you to try anything.

[00:49:08]>> What am I going to do? Escape?

[00:49:11]Trust me, there's only one way out and I'm not going to fit.

[00:49:16]>> Just hurry up.

[00:49:49]What's taking so long? You know, it's a little uncomfortable with you listening.

[00:49:54]Do you think you could turn the water on, make some sound? Fine. Whatever speeds things up.

[00:50:13]>> It's from the phone we planted.

[00:50:16]>> What's it say?

[00:50:17]>> She's in the restroom.

[00:50:20]My team's ready, boss.

[00:50:24]>> Let's go.

[00:50:28]>> Wait, wait, wait.

[00:50:30]He's in there with her.

[00:50:43]You know who's out there.

[00:50:47]surrounded by cops. You against your will. How do you think this is going to end? Surrounded by cops. Are you against your will?

[00:50:58]>> How is it going?

[00:50:58]>> How is it going to end?

[00:51:00]>> What's going on?

[00:51:02]>> Nothing.

[00:51:04]>> Open the door.

[00:51:05]>> Uh, I'm almost done. I'll be right out.

[00:51:08]>> Open the door.

[00:51:14]>> What are you doing?

[00:51:16]>> Nothing. I was just using the restroom.

[00:51:30]Let's go.

[00:51:45]What's going on, Lieutenant? My team's ready to go.

[00:51:49]>> She thinks she can talk him out.

[00:51:52]>> A hostage.

[00:51:56]>> Look, LG, he's down to one hostage. We've already been in twice, and I think we could kick that door and take him before he can get a shot off.

[00:52:06]It's time to end this thing. Look, if there's a chance for a peaceful resolution, we need to work toward it.

[00:52:11]>> Come on, Lieutenant. These things never end peaceful. You know, it's only a matter of a time until he decides to off himself and probably takes her with him.

[00:52:18]>> So, you think you can get to our guy before he gets his shot off?

[00:52:22]>> Absolutely.

[00:52:23]>> The front door's not even locked.

[00:52:25]>> But what if he gets that shot off? One lone shot?

[00:52:29]>> I mean, Lieutenant, that that's what body armor is for.

[00:52:33]>> Yeah. Well, it's too bad our hostage isn't wearing any.

[00:52:43]It's the hospital. Morgan here.

[00:52:48]>> Does he really believe that stuff in the Bible?

[00:52:54]>> Yep, I do.

[00:52:59]That saved me.

[00:53:03]>> Saved you from what?

[00:53:07]What's a girl like you need saving from?

[00:53:11]You're a preacher's daughter.

[00:53:14]>> We remember how I was saying before, we all sin. It's part of our nature.

[00:53:20]Well, we have to take responsibility for our sins and understand that there is a consequence for sinning and all that.

[00:53:30]And what that consequence means means eternal punishment.

[00:53:38]So in other words, going to hell and spending eternity with Satan.

[00:53:47]In Romans 6:23, it says, "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life.

[00:54:00]See, to be saved, it means that we're spared from that eternal punishment and rescued by the Lord, if you will.

[00:54:14]>> So, how does that work?

[00:54:16]How does someone get saved?

[00:54:19]>> It starts with forgiveness.

[00:54:24]You have to ask the Lord to forgive your sins.

[00:54:28]Is that it?

[00:54:29]>> Well, it's part of it. Simply, you know, asking for forgiveness. That's not what saves anyone. It's really believing that Jesus Christ was the true son of God who paid for your sins by dying on the cross and that he rose again.

[00:54:51]John 3:16 it says, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believeth in him shall not perish but have everlasting life."

[00:55:11]>> That's a lot to ask for.

[00:55:13]>> Is it?

[00:55:16]I mean, is it a lot to ask for?

[00:55:20]When in return someone is granted eternal life, >> right? Okay, got it. Thanks for the update.

[00:55:37]>> Our shooting victim is out of surgery.

[00:55:39]Looks like she's going to make it.

[00:55:41]>> Great. Let's update our bad guy. Let him know the little woman is going to pull through. Maybe he'll end this thing now that he's not facing a murder rap.

[00:55:51]>> What is it, boss?

[00:55:54]>> Pastor Taylor, he coded on the way to the hospital.

[00:55:57]They couldn't bring him back.

[00:56:03]>> Looks like our guy's going to face murder charges after all.

[00:56:12]>> Now, everyone knows that Jesus died on a cross.

[00:56:16]What most people don't know is that he wasn't the only one who was crucified that day.

[00:56:22]There were these two convicted thieves, one on each side of Jesus that were hung that morning.

[00:56:30]And um here, can I get a Bible for you? Okay.

[00:56:41]Um, turn to Luke 23.

[00:56:49]It's It's page 8.98.

[00:56:52]Got it.

[00:57:17]One of the criminals who hung there hurled insults at him.

[00:57:21]Aren't you the Messiah?

[00:57:25]Save yourself and us.

[00:57:27]See that man?

[00:57:30]He doubted that Jesus was the Lord because in his mind he believed that if he was the true son of God, he surely would save himself from that horrible death. Okay. So now continuing in verse 40, but the other criminal rebuked him.

[00:57:49]Don't you fear God? He said, "Since you're under the same sentence, we are punished justly for we are getting what our deeds deserved.

[00:58:01]But this man has done nothing."

[00:58:04]See that thief, he believed that Jesus was the true son of God.

[00:58:16]And then it continues in 42. Then he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom."

[00:58:31]See right there, that condemned man dying on a cross. He asked for forgiveness.

[00:58:41]Continuing in 43, Jesus answered him, "Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise."

[00:58:59]You see, James, no one has ever been saved any differently than that dying thief who simply believed and asked for forgiveness and asked to be saved.

[00:59:37]Can I ask you something?

[00:59:43]>> You want to know what I did?

[00:59:47]>> Yeah. They said that you shot someone.

[00:59:54]I did.

[00:59:58]I shot my girlfriend.

[01:00:03]I didn't mean to.

[01:00:08]We were arguing.

[01:00:10]She went for the gun and I tried to take it from her and it just went off.

[01:00:19]>> Oh, wow. Well, why didn't you tell the police that?

[01:00:26]>> The police?

[01:00:28]They don't believe somebody like me.

[01:00:32]They take somebody like me and lock me up and throw away the key.

[01:00:40]>> Well, did you take her to the hospital or call an ambulance?

[01:00:46]>> No, I panicked, so I ran.

[01:00:50]The cops started chasing me, so I panicked more.

[01:00:55]I ended up here.

[01:01:01]Well, maybe she's all right. I mean, maybe she's not as bad as you think she is.

[01:01:08]>> Not that bad.

[01:01:11]I shot her in the chest. I watched the blood pour out of her.

[01:01:17]Trust me, it's bad.

[01:01:24]>> Don't you want to know for sure?

[01:01:31]Don't you want to know for sure what happened to her?

[01:01:38]I know I would.

[01:01:41]I'd want to know what happened to someone I really care about, if they're alive or dead.

[01:01:53]Like, I'd really like to know how my father's doing.

[01:02:16]call just to check on him.

[01:02:26]>> What about your girlfriend?

[01:02:28]>> Don't worry yourself with that.

[01:02:44]What do you got, Mike?

[01:02:45]>> So, I got two guys in the east corridor here and then I've got two more at the entrance.

[01:02:54]>> That's our hostage.

[01:02:58]>> Morgan here.

[01:03:01]>> Hi, this is Elizabeth.

[01:03:05]Can he hear me?

[01:03:08]>> No.

[01:03:09]>> No. No. To what?

[01:03:12]>> No. They were just wondering if you're letting me go. And I I told him no. No.

[01:03:16]He He's letting me call to find out how my father's doing.

[01:03:23]And also ask about his girlfriend.

[01:03:28]>> Yeah, we just uh talked to the hospital.

[01:03:31]James' girlfriend is out of surgery and looks like she's going to pull through.

[01:03:37]>> That's great.

[01:03:39]Your girlfriend made it. She's going to be fine. That's great news.

[01:03:46]What about my father? How's my father doing?

[01:03:58]How's my dad?

[01:04:02]>> They did everything they could.

[01:04:09]>> I got to go.

[01:04:10]>> Elizabeth, >> better get over there. This could go south real fast.

[01:04:18]>> Copy that. I'm going to move my team up and get them stacked at the door.

[01:04:22]Mike, >> only on my order. Okay, >> understood. We only go on your command.

[01:04:37]>> Lord, get us through this tonight.

[01:04:51]Elizabeth, what did they say about him?

[01:05:05]>> Hey, hey, hey. Why is my little precious crying?

[01:05:09]>> A girl hit me.

[01:05:10]>> She did? It wasn't very nice, now was it?

[01:05:14]>> Mm- >> Are you okay?

[01:05:17]>> Yes. Then she told me she was sorry.

[01:05:20]>> Well, that was nice of you. Did you forgive her?

[01:05:24]>> No, I told her she was mean.

[01:05:28]>> Well, you know what, sweetie?

[01:05:31]We have to learn to forgive people no matter how mean they are to us.

[01:05:35]>> Why when they hurt me?

[01:05:38]>> Well, cuz that's what Jesus did.

[01:05:43]Remember that story that I told you about Jesus? how he he died on the cross for all of us.

[01:05:48]>> Yes.

[01:05:49]>> You know what he did before they did all that mean stuff to him?

[01:05:52]>> No.

[01:05:54]>> He forgave him. He forgave all those mean people for all that mean stuff they did to him.

[01:06:00]>> Pretty cool, huh?

[01:06:01]>> Yeah.

[01:06:03]>> Go play. Yes.

[01:06:04]>> Have fun, sweetie. Okay.

[01:06:08]>> Elizabeth.

[01:06:10]Elizabeth.

[01:06:16]Elizabeth.

[01:06:20]>> In Colossians 3:13, the Apostle Paul says, "Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another." And listen to this. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

[01:06:40]>> I forgive you.

[01:06:43]>> Forgive me. Forgive me for what? Just tell me what they said about your father.

[01:06:50]>> They said that my father is in a good place and that he's going to be just fine.

[01:07:05]James I need you to know that I have forgiven you for everything that you've done here tonight.

[01:07:47]My wrong turn started when I was born.

[01:07:49]I've been on the wrong path ever since.

[01:07:51]Nobody There's nobody in this world cares whether I live or die. What's the matter?

[01:07:56]>> I want you out of here.

[01:11:56]>> Please just give me the gun.

[01:12:01]>> Look at all the trouble I'm in. What life ahead is there for me?

[01:12:06]>> Look at the opportunity the situation has given you.

[01:12:10]>> Opportunity? What are you talking about?

[01:12:13]I've committed crimes. We're in a room full of cops. We can't get out of here.

[01:12:18]What are you talking about? Opportunity.

[01:12:20]>> The opportunity to turn your life around, James. Today, right here, right now.

[01:12:32]But you need to do something first.

[01:12:35]You have to give me the gun.

[01:12:40]Come on. It'll be okay.

[01:12:47]It's going to be okay.

[01:12:57]>> All right, let's get him.

[01:13:44]Hey, hold on.

[01:13:46]I'm going to be praying for you, James.

[01:13:49]Going to be praying that you stay the right course.

[01:14:10]you okay?

[01:14:18]>> That was a pretty brave thing you did here today.

[01:14:21]>> Thank you.

[01:14:23]>> Yeah, I don't think too many people would have helped him out the way you did.

[01:14:28]>> I guess I just saw something in him.

[01:14:31]You know, when he came in here and he held me hostage, I I don't know. I just never felt like he was going to hurt me.

[01:14:40]It's like I saw something in his eyes.

[01:14:45]Well, his girlfriend got out of surgery.

[01:14:49]The officers Well, asked her what happened at the shooting.

[01:14:55]>> Yeah. What did she say?

[01:14:58]>> She said that you're a good judge of character.

[01:15:02]She was also the one that got the gun.

[01:15:06]He was just trying to get it away from her and it went off.

[01:15:11]>> Come on.

[01:15:13]Be right to the hospital. Your sister wasn't waiting for you for a long time.

[01:15:33]So let us open the Bible to Romans 6:23.

[01:16:05]For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ.

[01:16:25]Come here.

[01:16:36]Eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

[01:16:45]Let us now turn to 2 Corinthians 5:17.

[01:16:53]Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature.

[01:17:01]Old things are passed away.

[01:17:04]Behold, all things become new.

[01:17:10]You see everyone, when you're saved, you are, as the saying goes, born again.

[01:17:17]You are considered a new creation, a new person, but most importantly a new ray of light.

[01:17:53]Heat. Heat.
