Synopsis
Andrew Patzer and Jason Rose of the Las Vegas, NV, Metropolitan Police Department respond to a domestic disturbance call at a local apartment complex. At the scene, the officers interview a man who is clearly annoyed by their inquisition and tells the officers that he had an argument with his girlfriend and insists that everything's cool. However, after getting his girlfriend's version of the story and seeing his hostile outbursts, the police arrest him for disorderly conduct. Meanwhile, when Fort Worth, TX, Police Officer Brian Clark pursues a speeding vehicle that ran a red light, the desperate driver leads the officer to his home, where he bails out of the vehicle, runs into the residence and barricades himself inside the bathroom.
