Reviewing My Shooting Footage - How Officer TJ Webb Got Shot 6 Times on Duty | Mike Drop 208

About this video

Officer TJ Webb recounts being shot six times during an arrest attempt of a suspect wanted for attempted homicide. Webb describes the firefight, sustaining injuries to both hands and a shattered femur that left him crawling under a car while a voice told him he had failed. His partner Josh applied a tourniquet and drove him to the hospital, with Webb staying conscious throughout the transport and convincing himself his leg would be amputated.

Key takeaways

• Webb explains he was shot six times (hand, face via ricochet off plate carrier, and femur) while engaging a suspect wanted for attempted homicide on his brother.
• Webb describes hearing a negative voice telling him he had failed while injured, which he says ultimately motivated him to survive and get home to his family.
• Webb recounts using combat breathing techniques and running through mental checklists to stay conscious and control blood loss during the eight-to-nine minute transport to the hospital.
