Phoenix PD officer Marc Atkinson was tailing a stolen vehicle and waiting for backup when he went around a corner and found its three occupants waiting in ambush; he had no chance, and they killed him. A fellow named Rory Vertigan was in a car right behind the officer. He drew his Glock and emptied the magazine, wounding one killer and disabling their car. He then tackled the wounded killer as he tried to flee. Police quickly nabbed all three.
