The Texas Department of Public Safety released a video of a chase that ended in a deadly shootout between a suspect and a DPS trooper in east Bexar County. The video shows the moments after authorities said 33-year-old Ernest Manuel Montelongo took off after giving troopers a fake name during a Feb. 18 traffic stop. The trooper briefly lost sight of the fleeing suspect, but a DPS helicopter assisted with finding him. The suspect crossed a highway and went the wrong way on I-10. The suspect was stopped by two troopers. Gunfire was exchanged between the suspect and a DPS trooper. The suspect and a trooper were taken to local area hospitals. The suspect died the next day in the hospital. The wounded trooper was taken to University Hospital in the DPS helicopter and survived the shootout.

Wow intense
Ten minutes to the next hospital by the helicopter. Thats awesome. Imagine the officer needed to wait for a ambulance driving through the traffic. That would have take a long time to get him to a hospital. Good job! Greetings from Germany.
All I got to say is really bad tactics. He should’ve taken cover behind his vehicle and go from there. Thank goodness it was just his arm.
Trooper still kept his head in the game, see him rolling… Thank god he had a partner.
Suspect tried bunny hopping
Dios bendiga a los buenos americanos aun sus policias
I love that they didn't wait on the ambulance, that medevac chopper saved his life.
Did he NOT see the two WRONG WAY signs?! Some people…..
The camera is very clear on the helicopter
I enjoy happy endings

reported for aimbotting
1:50 Is that blood? Don't the cops know that you don't shoot a guy in the dick, that's not cool…
Tough job…
Always follow the requests of a cop if stopped and do not argue. If he's wrong, go in court. Get yourself a bodycam – are as cheap as $40.
Let them do their work.
Crazy how the camera pod was locked onto that point the entire flight to the hospital.
Taking out the trash, great job troopers
Glad they could get the cop out of there so fast. Good on them. And good on the cop for having his stop the bleed kit ON HIS PERSON
dumbass cop should have used his car as cover
THIS IS REAL?!
1:39 if you wanna see the shootout here you go
