Sgt. Marcus Young serves with Ukiah, Calif. Police. A man armed with a knife and a five-shot .38 Special ambushed him. He was shot in the face, chest, back and one arm, and had the other arm torn open. While the homicidal attacker was trying to get at an HK machine gun in the patrol car, Marcus managed to aim with his badly damaged weak hand, the other arm being paralyzed, and trigger four careful shots. Each of the .40 caliber bullets went exactly where he aimed his privately owned, department-approved Beretta 96G and the suspect slumped dying in the front seat, his orgy of violence permanently ended. Marcus at this writing is still recovering from multiple surgeries, working light duty at the department, and very glad that he chose to carry a Beretta pistol that allowed him to shoot straight under some of the worst circumstances imaginable.

Author, left, with Sgt. Marcus Young, who won the NRA’s Police Officer of the Year award and saved many lives when, despite multiple severe wounds, he killed a heavily armed criminal with his privately owned, department-approved Beretta 96 service pistol.
