Holy shit.
Mr Hernandez, who served two tours of Afghanistan as an officer but did not see direct combat, yelled “shots fired” repeatedly while discharging a volley of bullets at the vehicle.
When his colleague, Sergeant Beth Roberts, shouted to check if he was safe, Mr Hernandez groaned as he collapsed on his side and answered: “I’m hit! I’m hit!”
“He shot through the car,” Mr Hernandez added, pulling himself on his hands and knees to drag himself behind a nearby vehicle.
Believing her colleague had been shot as he stumbled around on the street, Ms Roberts then opened fire on the car herself.
Trapped on the back seat and wearing handcuffs, Mr Jackson said he could only slump down as the back windscreen shattered to avoid “getting shot in the head”.
“I’m good,” Mr Hernandez shouted as he sheltered behind a grey Tesla, gun still in hand. “I feel weird but I’m good… It might have hit my vest.”
Interviewed after the incident by Michael Hogan, an investigator, the deputy said he had “definitely” heard a “suppressed weapon” firing.
“I felt an impact on my right side, like upper torso area…my legs just give out,” he claimed.
When shown images from his bodycam footage of the acorn hitting his car, Mr Hernandez asked: “Acorn?” Mr Hogan confirmed: “Acorn.”
