The 1974 Gang Shootout in Los Angeles with special guest Al Preciado - Part 2

Did a single Los Angeles Police Department Officer actually fire over 900 rounds in an officer involved shooting? Yes, it really happened! On May 17th, 1974, Ofc Al Preciado and eight other members of LAPD SWAT had their new tactics and equipment put to the test when they encountered the Symbionese Liberation Army hiding out in a house in South Central Los Angeles. Ofc Preciado was awarded the LAPD Medal Of Valor for his role in the gun battle that lasted over two hours. Al gives his first hand account of events. It's an incredible story.
