If you pull a gun on the police, you’re just asking to get shot. That’s the way it works. They want to go home at the end of the night just like everybody else.
They’re not in the business of negotiating when they think bullets are going to start flying.
Thankfully, Allison never even got a shot off, it was cleared as a clean shooting and the two police officers came home safely.
At the end of the day, that’s all you can ask for sometimes.
