Modesto, California — The Modesto Police Department released video of a shooting between officers and a male suspect, that left an officer in critical condition, ultimately leading him to have part of his right leg amputated. The suspect was identified as 42-year-old Jesse James Brooks of Modesto. Officers say they initially pursued Joshua Harrington, 34, to the house after he drove away from police on a motorcycle. Police said officers obtained a warrant to search the home. During the search, Brooks started shooting at police and hit an officer identified as Michael Rokaitis.

Officers returned fire and hit Brooks. Police Chief Brandon Gillespie said that Rokaitis has undergone seven surgeries since the shooting, including one to have part of his right leg amputated. He spent 12 days in the ICU but is now in stable condition. Brooks was charged with three counts of attempted murder on a peace officer, multiple weapon violations, as well as an outstanding U.S. Marshall Warrant for a probation violation. He was treated at a nearby hospital for non-life-threatening injuries and booked into the Stanislaus County Jail.

  1. Damn, dude lost part of his leg. Fuck. He is going to put on a happy face but I know what that's like. It is going to eat at him and hindsight is going to lead to a lot of long drunk long nights. If he has a better experience I give him credit.

  2. That's incredible when a bad guy seriously shoot you and your co-workers. Then he's just surrendered and you guys doing just the right thing to do. So professional! Respect!

  3. Cops gets shot once+ I can't fucking move+, suspect gets shot about 4 times and cops are like +come on stand up straight. Gotta love pigs

  4. Well Well, the Suspect had the correct name Jesse James, I guess he is the new version of the outlaw that existed back in the 18th century! If the suspect was black, I guarantee he wouldn't made to jail alive, more likely the Morgue.

  5. I'm glad the officer who got hit lived through it. You might of lost one leg but you never lost the fight. You're time is not up yet.

  6. I was so hoping that scumbag would go for his gun when they had him at gunpoint. What do these clowns think, they are going to shoot their way out or are they just so hateful of police they want to kill one before going away?
