From Monday April 5th - Sunday April 6th, 1970, what began as a routine traffic stop in Newhall, CA would quickly escalte into one of the deadliest events in law enforcement history. Late that evening, two California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers stopped a vehicle matching the description of a car linked to a call for service. As backup arrived, four CHP officers-officers Walt Frago, Roger Gore, George Alleyn, and James Pence were present. The suspects, Bobby Davis and Jack Twinning, exited their car and, in a matter of moments, chaos ensued, leaving all four officers fatally wounded.
In the aftermath of the incident, Davis and Twinning fled the scene, leading to an extensive manhunt that gripped the Los Angeles area. Authorities from multiple agencies, including the CHP and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, joined forces to locate the fugitives. Davis was eventually captured after being found hiding in a trailer, while Twinning, after being surrounded, removed himself from the world.
The Newhall Incident sent shockwaves through law enforcement, forcing agencies across the country to reexamine their tactics & training protocols. Officers were trained to focus more on officer safety, weapon retention, and tactical awareness, marking a significant shift in how law enforcement approached potentially dangerous encounters. The tragedy also brought about changes in equipment, with the CHP and other departments opting for stronger holsters, more reliable firearms, and the use of shotguns and semi-automatic weapons.
Perhaps most importantly, the incident underscored the need for psychological preparedness in high-stress situations. Departments began incorporating stress-response training, focusing on decision-making and survival skills during critical incidents. The lessons learned from Newhall are still felt today, as the incident has become a case study in modern law enforcement training, profoundly impacting how officers are prepared to face unpredictable and volatile scenarios.

"Sure, dear"
*Monday, April 6th. 1970...*
Anyone who’d tell these stories to kids would be like the coolest dad (or mom even, assuming she has a sense of fun) to exist- maybe ever.

@@ContentEnjoyer-gm3kymy son is only 2 I'mma wait two or three years
@tbo666 That sound lit. I mean, Right, let them develop a taste for crazy stories yknow? They won’t appreciate a lot of detail when their little brains can’t comprehend too much. 😂
@@ContentEnjoyer-gm3ky exactly my friend. I want him to like history so the best ways is to tell badass stories about badass people
These old school police stories are my favorite because they highlight points in counter crime evolution. During this time you have police officers from WW2, Korea, and Vietnam using their experience. They may not have had the armament of today's force but, were far from pushovers.
Also interesting that it’s not only the police but the criminals often have military experience from these wars like in Britain in the years after ww2 there was a huge surge in armed robbery because of soldiers who served in the war not being able to get work and putting the skills they learnt to use
@@mrpink9434 This is true. There was a relatively famous shootout I saw covered on TV years back involving a gang member that joined the Marines and served his 4 years before returning to the streets with improved tactics.
Cops and criminals are worse now.
And sometimes they were up against veterans turned criminals that fought right along side of them in the war
@@mrpink9434100% and the Phoenix Program in the Vietnam war was responsible for a lot of the violent crimes in the united states spanning over the 1970s/80s
I've been taught about this shooting at a defensive firearms class. The most chilling party for me was finding the recovered brass in their pockets and that they still had live rounds available.
That's a myth, there were no spent casings in their pocket. It was repeated over and over again to sell police forces on the idea of SWAT Teams, and that's why everyone thinks it happened.
This is a myth that everyone repeats because they heard it at the academy
I've heard conflicting reports about whether or not the brass in the pocket is a myth.
My instructor raised his voice at me because he thought I was going to do that.
Their brass was dropped to the ground, not deposited into their pockets.
When I was in the academy for a SoCal agency 14 years ago, we went over this shooting and the training failures. Pretty much every cop in SoCal knows about this case. Very sad.
At first I thought this was going to include a slightly distant relative of mine. Then I remembered he was a Sheriff's deputy and was solo. Similar circumstances and the same era and state though. Crazy. I've met the old men in my family who were combat veterans, other older slightly distant realitives and yet a man who would be probably in his seventies and never served in the military is the one who left behind a grieving widow.
I feel for the families of these fallen lawmen.
phucc da po lice
This is the only channel I have notifications activated and ive been here since the beginning. Make no mistake this man is the GOAT of video sountracks. And im not even gonna start on the quality of the videos and content. Hats off my man. You will be bigger than you ever dreamed of.
The music comes from White Bat Audio. They're a royalty-free music channel here on YT.
I was going to say he uses royalty free music 😂
It's good though
Damn, I just rewatched Harrell's Miami Dade video where he mentioned this shooting. Was wondering how it went down. Sweet
RIP
I think he also has a video on the Newhall shooting too.
The CHP made a movie about this incident. Lookup "Newhall 1970".
Just something to add, in police academy our range master told us that some of the officers had spent cases in their pockets, and it’s believed that it’s because of a habit from training where they would unload the empties from their revolvers into their hand and put them in their pocket as to not have to pick them up at the end. Because of this we always had to let our magazines drop to the ground when empty was his point.
I never knew that that's the reason they drop empty mags, but it makes perfect sense. It's not as if you're going to stop and feed new rounds into it, so it serves no further purpose in the fight.
If I didn't want to ever get caught by the police again, I would simply not go on a crime spree... but I guess I'm just built different.
nah I think you’re part of the majority of the population
You and me both,amigo,but,the criminal mind is-CRAZY-the thought process. The smart ones who've been to prison chose to walk the straight and narrow ( thus staying outta jail )
There are definitely some criminal rationales that are completely counterintuitive to the average person.
That Ness guy is a badass.
Love you popomedic makes me so happy to see your channel growing
Ily
Love your storytelling on these heavy cases.
All lessons in law enforcement are either paid for in cash or blood.
Babe wake up, Popo medic dropped another banger!
"RUclips has been a little Moody lately". My friend your comment is absolutely accurate!!
Lately?
7.2 holy fuck, there is no replacement for displacement
Except there is because smaller engine today have much more power haha
Turns out that forced induction is indeed a replacement for displacement. And nitrous as well.
@@theKashConnoisseurif you boost the 7.2 you’ll have even more power but I get what you’re saying
SOMEONE FINALLY MAKES A VIDEO ABOUT THIS
The car was neither stolen nor a GTO. According to the CHP, it was a Pontiac Catalina legally purchased at an LA car lot.
If you thought California being a communist 💩hole was just a modern problem
1970 counts as modern times
Funny how folks shxt on certain cities calling them communist, when certain presidential candidates are best buddies with Vladimir Putin
Ronald Reagan was governor at the time if I'm not mistaken.
Than you for making this video, I've been hoping that you would for some time now. My grandfather was Richard Robinson, one of the CHP in the third squad that had arrived.
Do the Lakewood Police Dept. next. 4 officers killed in ambush in 2009.
Yes, I agree!
I suggested this one a long time ago glad you finally covered it
Like Reid Henrichs says “The lessons we learn today are written on the tombstones of others”
If I remember correctly, this was the seminal moment when law-enforcement training changed from a public service model to an officer survival model, there only being 3 kinds of people: Law enforcement, inmates, and suspects. While it is a natural result of such a devastating loss, it changed the relationships between police and the community for the worse, from the law-abiding welcoming officers to fearing them.
Except for the officers that are naturally good with people. I contend that an officer can still function with the mindset of always being suspicious and observant (out of necessity) while still staying a member of the community. But you're absolutely right... There are some officers that instill fear by default.
They clearly called lester
In the 70s and 80s, before debit cards, you'd get a bigger haul from a major grocery store on a Sunday night than you would from a bank on a random weekday.
Man those Poleras are so iconic
It's crazy to me that CHP's response to automatic weapons was shotguns.
Why does it seem like Oakland has been crime-ridden since the very beginning of its start as a city?
I live right down the road from where this happened. My family has lived in the area since the 1930's when Mainstreet Newhall was the only place that looked like civilization. My dad was in high school when this happened at Hart high. I remember he would tell me about this every now and again when we drove by the sight. Coincidently my grandmother would go on to remarry and it would be the Chief of LAPD at this time Chief Ed Davis. My grandmother was called Bobbie, so she became Bobbie Davis.
Lunch break at work and there's a BRAND NEW Popo Medic video? It's a good day! Thank you for the content; I truly love your storytelling.
I’m here after Paul Harrell’s reading recommendations. Well crafted video as always
The "brass in pockets" myth just won't die. Read the Police One article on this topic. No report from the time mentioned anything about brass being found in the pockets of the officers.
I wonder how Gary Kness walks around with such massive balls.
When I was a cadet at the CHP academy, it was a special class you attended and watched video and they showed images of the officers bodies. No mention of brass in pockets, this was the reason they standardized weapons as well, they were all using different sidearms and they were not trained for each type.
There is a more dramatic training film of this incident. I think it was made in the late 70's. One of the bad guys was played by Van Williams who played the Green Hornet in the 60's. He became a L. A. county Reserved deputy.
Wild, I was just looking into this case 2 days ago. Confirmed Popo Medic lives in my brain.
Hahaha same I grew up in Newhall
DUDE!!!!! thank you soooooo much for this video! I attended a Massad Ayoob course last summer and he talked about this event and some of the lessons learned and changes it brought about it training and tactics. This video was a perfect complement to the topics we discussed.
I was just randomly catching up on your last 10 videos and suddenly there’s a new one! Love the work the production is incredible
A Polara Pursuit was clocked at 150 MPH at the Chrysler test tract. A and B body Chryslers were arguably the best police cars ever made. At the time they offered the best balance of cost, performance, and reliability.
Love these amazing documentaries. Keep it up!!
This is the best channel on RUclips.
The content, the production, the music, and the voice is all top notch.
You know it's going to be a good day when Popo medic upload
Love these short docs that you do! Keep it up!!
Can you do more of this mini docs on older police stories. Please
The Safeway robbery was reenacted in Sylvester Stallone movie Cobra
Popo uploads a video: my day just got so much better
wow I grew up in Sylmar and never hear of that story what a wild story thank you for sharing brother
This is one of the incidents that contributed to the myth of the officer with brass in his pocket
Bro Popo Medic is LIT today.
When a new Popo Medic video hits, I immediately stop what im doing and watch it. 😂
And to think, California somehow only got worse.
That statement need context.
From what, as a foreigner, I was able to find CA is doing just fine.
So... Please share whatever you have to substantiates your claims. 🤌🏼
@AlbandAquino Well, then you’re listening to propaganda. California is a master at that, given it runs Hollywood. The Night City zone of California is dangerous as hell. It’s literally the armpit of America. And those who live in rural California are dehydrating. The policies of that state are terrible. I’m actually surprised you haven’t heard of the hell that California is. It literally has some of the worst reputations in America.
@@AlbandAquinonah he’s right California DID only get worse.
@AlbandAquino RUclips, being a California based company, just deleted my reply to you being specific about California’s woes. That should be enough of an explanation to you.
@@ContentEnjoyer-gm3ky Just let me know in DMs. I'll relay's those messages, but you'd better be prepared. Wifey's from NY. So you might get a FU as a thank you. That does not represent us, all in all. 😄
those are rookie numbers, we gotta pump those numbers up
they just ate 4 CHiPs
Insane story and situation. Great story telling 👍👏
“It was an Oakland Safeway…” 💀
The *_GOAT_* of crime documentaries is bacc!
The worst thing I've seen at a Safeway, was as a teen bagger. Some guy in his mid forties or early 50s was snaking on something from the bulk bins (we had bulk bins of wrapped and unwrapped candy as well as nuts. It was self serve and you charged by weight).
Then again I was not in SoCal!
I would imagine criminals had it easier the further back in history. Now we have cameras and tracking devices in our pocket.
Another banger, keep em coming!
Your research, editing, and delivery are excellent
Will forever be referring to horsepower as ponies
This incident helped changed the culture of law enforcement forever…
The soundtracks you use for your videos make it feel like I'm watching an action movie. Excellent video
Hands down one of the best channels here. Anyone else like the videos before you are even 10 seconds in
Was taught the lessons of this one in the academy.
Excellent video as always! I’ve been wanting this video to drop for a while. It was worth the wait and it did not disappoint!!!
Can you do the Washington Navy Yard Shooting 2013? Deadliest mass shooting in Washington DC history, and second on a military base.
Thanks for another kick-ass upload Papa Popo!
That is some bullshit that they didn't execute Davis after he killed FOUR cops.
Also, was Ness related to Elliot Ness?
I see a POPO MEDIC video I hit like and I watch
Operation Acid Gambit video when?
I wonder what are the legal implications if someone does what the citizen did, today?
None
Thats a buttload of torque. Still pretty ineffecient given the enormous displacement tho. All to the back wheels, it must have been oversteer city. Probably limited to 130
another banger. appreciate you big dawg
Wait, so is the whole reason U.S police have militarisitc training is because: every man and his dog could have a firearm, be pumped high on drugs or both, because of mass shootings and violent crimes throughout the 1960s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and then during the 2000s and 2010s it was the risk of terror attacks?
I'm sure I have missed something but that is wild
Cops spent more time on their mustache then on shooting skills.
Hope u can find a better mood popo
Great story I’ve heard of it but you do a great job bringing it to life.
I want that free trail of aura lol
Yes! Been waiting for a new episode.
Popomedic, it seems like the LA branches of Bank of America love getting robbed😭😭😭😭
