Wood didn't take his ticket book
out of the car.

:09:06
He left it in the car on the front seat...
:09:09
which indicates
that he was not going to write a ticket.

:09:12
What he was probably going to do
was have them turn on the headlights.

:09:15
He didn't know that the car was stolen.
:09:19
I think that there's a very good chance...
:09:22
that he was going
to check the driver's license...

:09:25
and tell him to turn on his headlights,
and let the guy be on his way.

:09:29
Officer Wood's wife had purchased him...
:09:32
a bulletproof vest
and had it under the Christmas tree.

:09:35
Or had it stored away,
to give to him at Christmastime.

:09:40
His partner was one of the first
female police officers...

:09:45
that was assigned to patrol.
:09:46
They were from the Northwest Station.
Just patrol officers following the clock.

:09:50
Working the graveyard shift and everything.
:09:53
They had been into a fast-food
restaurant. And she had a malt.

:09:57
This car came by, these
two dudes in it, with no lights on.

:10:11
It wasn't a serious problem...
:10:13
but he just pulled up,
turned his lights on to stop him.

:10:16
Just to warn the man
that his lights were off.

:10:30
Got out of the car and walked up.
:10:32
Before he got to the window,
where the driver was...

:10:35
he was in the right position.
:10:36
This man just turned around and just...
:10:39
with a little small-caliber pistol.
:10:48
The first shot hit him in the arm.
:10:50
He had his flashlight. It hit
the flashlight and went into his arm.

:10:55
The next one hit him right in the chest.
