I know they are graphic... but they underscore the importance of

Officer safety. Stay safe. And pass along to all your police officer

colleagues.

Subject: Warning explicit photos! - Officer assaulted with a knife

I received this from Deputy US Marshal Mike Fugate today and

wanted to pass it on. The original source on the e-mail I got is at the

bottom on this post. I is vivid proof of how deadly people who are "only

armed with a knife" can be. Some of the public think that officers

should try to disarm someone armed with a knife but anyone who has had

training in knife fighting will tell you, even if you win you are going to get cut.

Keep this in the back of your mind when confronting someone armed

With an edged weapon. Before you ask, I DO NOT HAVE ANY FURTHER

DETAILS. I tried to find out more but was unable to. If you know, please

advise me. I started not to send it to the non-law enforcement distribution

list on the newsletter but I think they need to see this too.

Be forewarned, photos are graphic.

These are kind of graphic and I don't know the details, but the

pics say a thousand words. A little knife fight training never hurt anyone

too bad................And just to say it again, lifting weights and

doing calisthenics, etc., is NOT combat training. Be safe.
