There are many "what would you do?" scenario in law enforcement. In this video not sure if this is a training exercise or a real world life threatening situation from the Far East Asia.
Scenario looks to be a hostage taking at a hospital.
The bad guy has a cleaver to a female nurses neck.
While a male (maybe a PO) is trying to talk to him, possibly to get him to calm down. He is shown making a call over the radio.
A second female nurse arrives with something in her left hand. She is holding it out as to show here it is. The bad guy asks to have the bottle opened up (unscrew the cap)
The nurse hands it to him and he takes it and takes a drink. While he is drinking the bottle, the captive nurse gets free... See the full cross-fire rescue video footage here. After seeing the vid, let us know what you think.
My guess as a non pro: Shoot his elbow?
DRT.
Head shot from side opposite (at 45 degrees) approaching ‘nurse’.
That’s what happened, but I heard from movies (which I know are fiction) that a reflex could have cut her throat before the head shot took effect, if it happened before he turned his attention?
And the shooter didn’t know until it happened that knife guy was going to do that. What is the best shot if next moments are uncertain?

You cut the brain stem and you drop to the ground like a sack of wet laundry. Sorry there is no signal to the muscles after the obliteration of the brain stem.
