An emotional conversation can be heard on the police scanner by a police officer begging for an ambulance for Officer Wilt as he reveals that Office Wilt has been shot in the head. Earlier in the conversation, a police officer can be heard saying that Officer Nicholas Wilt is lying on the steps outside of the bank as police scramble to navigate the situation with the shooter inside behind a window where they cannot see him.
Listen to the incredible calm, courage, and bravery as the police dispatcher, SWAT team, and Louisville Metro Police Department officers work together to get Officer Wilt to the hospital and safely breach the bank to help the innocent victims inside.
