Cameras are the Polices friend, body cams have not resulted in the condemnation of Police that the left wanted. Yes this was a dashcam not a bodycam but bodycams are gaining in popularity with police.
Dashcam footage of an intense shootout between an illegal immigrant and an Arkansas police officer over the weekend has been released.
According to a press release from the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, the incident began when Washington County Corporal Brett Thompson tried to pull over a vehicle due to a traffic violation but the driver would not slow down.
Fortunately no officers, deputies, or bystanders were injured during the incident.

Corporal Thompson could see the driver moving around in the seat, and could see there was a passenger with him as well. The driver of the vehicle eventually stopped on Steele Road.
When Corporal Thompson exited his vehicle, the driver immediately opened his car door and began shooting at Corporal Thompson. Corporal Thompson returned fire and numerous rounds were exchanged before the suspect jumped back into his vehicle and took off, eastbound on Steele Road. He traveled a short distance, stopped and let a female passenger out of the vehicle, then took off again.
A Be On the Lookout (BOLO) was issued for the suspect and vehicle. A Springdale Police officer located the vehicle on 71B near Shady Grove Road in Springdale, where shots were exchanged again. The suspect was pursued into Fayetteville, where Fayetteville Police and Arkansas State Police joined the pursuit. The suspect traveled back into Springdale, where he was eventually stopped at Don Tyson and S. Thompson and arrested by Springdale Police Officers.
When the suspect, identified as Luis COBOS-CENOBIO, H/M, 29, was arrested, he had a wound to the left arm/shoulder. Springdale Police transported him to Northwest Medical Center, where he was treated and released into their custody. (Washington County Sheriff's Office)
