There are over 40,000 assaults on police officers every year and they are at their most vulnerable when they are single crewed. Alone and often outnumbered, they are 50% more likely to suffer an injury than when they are working in pairs. In this episode, a routine stop on a car suspected of having no insurance or MOT attracts the attention of a man from an on-looking house. He pulls out a handgun. The officer has to drop his questioning of the driver and focus on the armed man until back-up arrives. And four suspected thieves go on the run in a suspected cloned car after failing to stop for a lone officer. Other officers arrive on scene to help look for the runaways who have abandoned a car with suspected stolen tools inside.
