Gunman Pulls Up On And Jacks Motorcyclist For His Bike, Only To Be Shot By Officer Seconds Later (VIDEO)

A wild scene captured on a helmet cam in Brazil is more reminiscent of something one would expect to see in a video game or some action movie.

It's not however, just basically some regular $hit in the streets of San Paolo.

The video shows a motorcyclist simply cruising thru the streets at first with nothing spectacular taking place.

That serenity is quickly shattered once he reached an intersection in which an armed robber on the back of another bike shoved a .38 in his face.

The suspect, Escarante Leonardo Santos, then took off with the motorcycle, but was surprised when a police officer on his way home shouted at him from the other side of the highway.

Santos was about to shoot the cop but the officer shot him first: once in the leg and once in the abdomen. Santos is currently in the hospital receiving treatment, but the other suspect fled the scene of the crime.

Law enforcement officials released a statement saying the officer’s actions were justified because the robber had clearly pointed his gun at the officer. Original Source
