@thebelladawg Ok well 18 people were injured. One cop shot in the back and a civi was shot in the chest. Im sure they dont even remember though so your right, just blow it off like its nothing cause "at least hey didnt die".
To everyone who has seen the video and gave their two cents in the comment section: Thank You!!!! As all of you know, the 15th anniversary is approaching, and I want to know whether any of you are interested in seeing a special video for the 15th anniversary of the shootout on February 28,2012. I will gladly take all ideas and suggestions, and if anyone wishes to contribute news footage, please contact me here at YouTube to help, any assistance will make a huge difference!
@jackamoose99 Do you also wank over small children? Have some respect. Without the police, the country would be in turmoil. So shut your inbred, cock-eating mouth. Prick.
@jackamoose99 hate dumfucks like you.. this video is fucking 15 years ago.. and probably as old as ur dumb fucking brain.. and its a fucking shoot out, they risk their life to film a segment.. and here comes dumbfucks like u" did the camerman shove the camera up his ass or something" man.. be less ignorant.. dumb fuck
@iknowwhereyoulive006 It is believed they got away with a previous robbery in which a gaurd was killed. but they stayed in the same place, which was stupid. Its interesting because the police got the jump on them just like in the movie, except in the movie they were tipped off instead of just driving by. Even had the suit and tie detectives involved. im thinking motorcycles are the best escape plan, going in every direction.
Guys, the driver never took the keys, he turned off the fuel switch so Emil wasn't able to start the car. A retired officer from my dept. was called to the scene and he told me all these details about the shooting that not much people know about.
@localSickened Thats the thing. The police officers didn't have ANYTHING except some small 9mm. Once they got higher powered rifles then they took those bitches down quick.
@localSickened Mexicans are used to violence... Also if one of the Cops had a sniper rifle they could have taken out the highly untrained and incredibly stupid north hollywood shooters. The cops are also shitty and untrained however, so really this was an exercise in stupidity on both sides that endangered civilians. Fankly if they had simply let them flee no one would have been hurt. They decided to have a shootout though and several civilians were injured and Im sure some of them died.
This is so stupid, i mean shit if the guy who filming had a gun that would of been over because he had so many clear views of the gunmen its ridiculous
i just cant believe that in all that fucken time they were unable to get a MOTHER FUCKEN HUNTING RIFLE, A 30-06 FOR CHRIST SAKE!!.... and blast the son of a bitch in the head......piece of shit LAPD
i wonder if this was another ploy setup by the secret powers who control our government to change gun laws and take away more of our rights, there are many more examples of this
these men werent out to rob a bank, they went out to kill and proof of that is no bank robber carrys 60lbs of ammo, 3 rifles, FULL body amour and THEN expects to try and carry 50+ more pounds of cash and without even a suitable get away car!
@farerse no they didn"t. i have fam in law enforcement and they said that the police were to far away to get a clear headshot and they only had pistols and shotguns.swat was on the otherside of town
@sleezzzyp fam= family ? .. but according to info over 2000 bullets where exchanged . they hit the robbers hands and feet . couldn't they aimed a bit higher? or have a sniper to take them out..
@farerse yea i meant my family.if they hit there hands it was by luck.most of the bullets came from the robbers.police couldnt get to close because they were outpowered,therefore a headshot from that distance on a moving target wouldve been hard.the only snipers that couldve of taken them out were swat and they had jus finished training on the other side of town.that is why on the other videos at the end you will c a swat officer wearing khaki shorts.they were off when they got the call

these documentaries make it sound like they were enaged in a firefight the whole 45 or so minutes. at 5:08 he puts his gun down and is like "shit, anybody got a cigarette?" lol
i lived down the street when this shit happened and i remember the news channels were all reporting that there were 4 gunmen.......why else would they have blocked in a couple square miles doing house to house searches.......also ive read that the bullets they pulled out of the first gunmen killed were from a high powered rifle and the the trajectory of the round was on its way down...........sniper.........makes you wonder how many people were really involved..........

the police are sworn to serve and protect besides these guys were going to kill someone or hurt people for crying out loud. i dont what you guys think, Go LAPD
@Th3Black0men robbery and violence wasn't their kind of life style. They were both seeing a doctor that prescribed them drugs knowing that it would make them extremely violent as a side effect but he did not care. He gave them the medication anyways and violence ensued
@anthonysaurus656 Yes, let's all blame it on anti-depressants. Do you really think that those prescription drugs are the reason for the robbing and killing? Anything that totally alters your perception of reality is not going to be prescribed by doctors. It was still their choice. Period. I'm on anti-depressants, do you see me going around shooting people in the head? No. Where's your sense of accountability man?
@sidmute00 I'm not saying anything about anti depressants, I'm on anti-depressants. I'm saying that the doctor that prescribed them the medicine was a sick fuck who enjoyed it when he had people killed. In order to avoid being caught though, he gave many of his patients drugs that would make them very violent. Not all of them went as far as to kill people though
@anthonysaurus656 Yes, let's blame it on the drugs. Most meds that are prescribed don't "totally" alter states of mind. Prescription drugs wouldn't be prescribed if they made people kill each other.. btw..have you seen the video? They don't look too high to me. Have you read their back stories? They've been fucked up most of their lives. Bottom line, the PERSON fired the gun. If the drugs influenced that decision, then it still comes back to the personal fking responsibility of the person.
Those cops put civilians in jeopardy pursuing those men. Are a couple bricks of money worth risking people's lives? If they backed off there would have just been some green paper missing.
They got wrecked because they were pussies who didn't know how to shoot. They couldn't kill a single person even when they were armed with AIM assault rifles and H&K's. Maybe if they weren't such pussies they wouldn't have died.
@ebluntsmokerp Indeed they have! Larry Phillips fired several bursts of ammunition at the news chopper as it encircled the shootout and provided live coverage...
Didnt watch the whole vid, but from I've reat they had body armor and the shootout lasted quite some time. But didn't it ever occur to any of the cops to shot them guys to the legs? Nice vid anyway.
@grimelab- Hey dumbass-Read someone's post thoroughly before you call them names. "banks LIKE Bank Of America" which is basically all banks. You're too brain-washed or not sharp enough to get the whole picture.
@TheSxp4life All they had at first were pistols since they thought it was just a normal bank heist so it took time to get the rifles there and there's no way they could hit a moving target from long range with a pistol.
THE REAL CROOKS HERE ARE BANKS LIKE BANK OF AMERICA. THE AVERAGE AMERICAN PAYS FOR HIS HOME THREE TIMES OVER IN INTEREST TO THESE CRIMINALS. HOW CAN THAT BE LEGAL? ANSWER: CROOKED BANKERS + CROOKED POLITICIANS = YOU AND I GET SCREWED. F*CK BANK OF AMERICA
@player4life11111 I have been to your website, and it is very good, but has some big holes. For instance, the "Gunmen" pages lead up to the meeting of the two men, and then stop (?) There is not a word about how/when that happened, or what their relationship from then on was (?) To me that is the most important part of the story, and several years are completely missing (?) Nothing about the safehouse they used, no photos, no interviews with anyone who knew them during that entire time, etc
@gmd1417 Definitely write to the suggestion page, and believe me, your suggestions will be taken seriously so the site can be improve on. Your honest feedback will make a difference :)
Why are there not more photos of the two gunmen out there? It is always the same two stock photos of each man. Are there no police evidence photos of their "safe house"? There is very little written about them,. especially their friendship, What was their relationship like in the years in which it became a criminal partnership?
@gmd1417 Maybe they were affliated with Military or police enforcement at some time. Prehaps they dont want you to know shit about why and who they really are.
It would be even MORE disasterous if Larry was replaced with Babyface Nelson (FYI: He still holds the record for most FBI agents, in all, killed by a single person). Larry must be related to him because Nelson with a gun = shoot at anything: Men, women, children, etc. with NO remorse what-so-ever. Nelson even made a list of Police/FBI license plates to hunt them at every chance he got, which led to his eventual downfall even though he killed ALL the agents on scene in a gunfight.
I was at work at the Bob Hope Airprt (then it was the Burbank Airport) and we heard the shots from there - the police force there mobilized and everything - then back in 2002 we went to the vacuum store there I wlked to the tree where Sgt. Washington was shot and I saw the holes in the tree...also there are still puttyed over bullet holes in the apt comlex next to the center
these guys had balls of steel to battle the LAPD like that. HOLY SHIT! I was in the 7th grade when this happened. this is a shocking display of criminal behevior at its very worst. WOW!!CRAZY ASS MOTHERFUCKERS
i cant get over the stupidity of the reporters to get so close & expose themselves facing backwards, btw the sound at 8:52 sounds like a damn bullet grazing by n missing by inches in my opinion
@rowdyrottenpeeper I was thinking the same.... this all could have ended so early if someone were sitting where the reporters were with a rifle at around 4:15 in the video. a bolt action rifle and a steady aim would have saved a lot of lives.... but nope, just gonna chill with the camera and let it continue
@camnet2001 Actually I asked his cameraman,and he said that these were used to record the shootout as it happened, so the final video is a combination of all these videos, this explains the gaps in the tape itself.
@camnet2001 Well. Think about it. This is 1997 back when they didn't have DVD disks. Just tapes. The he had to have them in case the tape in camera got too full, so that should explain it.

@player4life11111 I have been to your website, and it is very good, but has some big holes. For instance, the "Gunmen" pages lead up to the meeting of the two men, and then stop (?) There is not a word about how/when that happened, or what their relationship from then on was (?) To me that is the most important part of the story, and several years are completely missing (?) Nothing about the safehouse they used, no photos, no interviews with anyone who knew them during that entire time, etc

Why are there not more photos of the two gunmen out there? It is always the same two stock photos of each man. Are there no police evidence photos of their "safe house"? There is very little written about them,. especially their friendship, What was their relationship like in the years in which it became a criminal partnership?

@player4life11111 Looks like you were pretty close to tha gunman were you worried at all that he would turn and see you and shoot you?

@gmd1417 Maybe they were affliated with Military or police enforcement at some time. Prehaps they dont want you to know shit about why and who they really are.

@NKA23 the police have M16s not M4s. the M4 is a military rifle and carbine. they cops use M16A2 and M16A4 rifles.

It would be even MORE disasterous if Larry was replaced with Babyface Nelson (FYI: He still holds the record for most FBI agents, in all, killed by a single person). Larry must be related to him because Nelson with a gun = shoot at anything: Men, women, children, etc. with NO remorse what-so-ever. Nelson even made a list of Police/FBI license plates to hunt them at every chance he got, which led to his eventual downfall even though he killed ALL the agents on scene in a gunfight.

@MrLetsgotrojans No i was alive in the 90's, but I would think that a news reporter grade camera would be a little better than this.

I was at work at the Bob Hope Airprt (then it was the Burbank Airport) and we heard the shots from there - the police force there mobilized and everything - then back in 2002 we went to the vacuum store there I wlked to the tree where Sgt. Washington was shot and I saw the holes in the tree...also there are still puttyed over bullet holes in the apt comlex next to the center

i cant get over the stupidity of the reporters to get so close & expose themselves facing backwards, btw the sound at 8:52 sounds like a damn bullet grazing by n missing by inches in my opinion

rowdyrottenpeeper 1 year ago
@rowdyrottenpeeper I was thinking the same.... this all could have ended so early if someone were sitting where the reporters were with a rifle at around 4:15 in the video. a bolt action rifle and a steady aim would have saved a lot of lives.... but nope, just gonna chill with the camera and let it continue

@camnet2001 Actually I asked his cameraman,and he said that these were used to record the shootout as it happened, so the final video is a combination of all these videos, this explains the gaps in the tape itself.

@camnet2001 Well. Think about it. This is 1997 back when they didn't have DVD disks. Just tapes. The he had to have them in case the tape in camera got too full, so that should explain it.
