Okay RUclips Community, we need prayers. I thought I would update everyone. The video of Officer O’Connor being escorted to a rehabilitation hospital has received over 7 million views worldwide! That means people from all around the world knows his story. Those people come from different religious and cultural backgrounds. A few weeks ago Officer O’Connor was diagnosed with COVID-19. O’Connor is now in the ICU on a ventilator fighting for his life once again. We know that he is a fighter! The family is asking the community for prayers. What better community then the worldwide community I have right here! Please keep him in your prayers and I will update you when I can.
Us Americans know what respect is. Sometimes a complete random citizen you’ve never seen in your life would go out of their way into danger just to save s random guys life.
@@TycoonTitian01 the fact that he survived a bullet to the back of the head, and the crash resulting from him getting shot plus the time to get him to the hospital is amazing.
@Austin Chea the suspect he had arrested had managed to hide a gun on him, and when the officer was about to pull into the station, he shot the officer in the back of the head, and then himself. the officer's car crashed into the building because he was still driving when he was shot. somehow he managed to survive both of those situations and ended up recovering at a hospital.
Thank you for this. It was a tearful memory for me as my cousin Chad LeCroy (Georgia State Patrol #744) was killed right after Christmas 2010 by being shot in the head for pulling a guy over with a tail light out. I miss him and am prayerfully thankful that officer O'connor survived. My heart goes out. Thank you, LEO's for risking your lives daily to protect ours!
@@climaxActual it took 10 years but I was finally able to learn that Chad knew Christ as his savior. I cannot begin to express what a profound relief that was. Thank you for your well wishes!

Kaleo Lum police brutality is a legitimate concern here in America though. He didn’t put it the best way, and there’s a better place to discuss that topic but it’s definitely a pretty evil system at the end of the day. Privatized prisons, quotas and such
@@tiko5876 We don't have quotas anymore, they used to have them but then we're removed. Yes, it does make the cop look better if he has mlre tickets and arrests. Also most things seen on t.v. are lies. For example black people getting shot because their black. Most people don't look up why the police shot the victim. They see a 30 sec video of a 2 hour incident. There are many cops and RUclipsrs that would agree.
@Hollywood Hollywood Hollywood Hollywood so what you're saying is all cops are bad and only shoot black people, lmao you are the definition of stupid and ignorant
My favorite bit, besides the fact that over a dozen agencies helped in the escort, was the fact that along the way EVERY SINGLE fire department was out, at attention, showing their respect. Seeing this sort of solidarity between first responders is amazing and beautiful.
Can y'all just imagine. Your whole PD escorting you. Such loyal officers with the respect of escorting a brave man. God bless the good officers left in our world. This world can, mean so many things. I'm happy that the brave officer who got shot is living a healthy life. And thank you to those who escorted him, and waited for him at the airport.
I'm Sicilian and here in Catania there are many soldiers of the US army, the song gives goosebumps when it says "if I were far from home" I can imagine the hearts in the throat of the families. in my small way I have always tried to help the compatriots who live here trying to make them feel at HOME. GOD BLESS YOU 🙏
Lukakio because he got shot in the back of the head protecting and serving the people. And usually getting shot in the back of the head is immediate death. So they want to recognize the miracle that happened and all wish him off, its like if your mom got in a car accident. Youre gonna wanna be there when she goes to the hospital right?

If we tried the same here, you know it would be put down by the higher ups. Besides, we don't have anywhere near the numbers like this PD. Huge respect to all the EMS/police/fire for showing such respect.
hi im a German police ofiicer and when someone of our Dienststelle (department ) dies hes getting escorted by the GSG 9 ( an Elite Unit ) , its not so present to the public but way more in the department itself . Just a simple black helicopter and black cars with sirens and light driving through the city . To all paramedics, Firemens and Policeofficers keep going it might not pay out immediantly but at some point for sure !! Greetings from Your Brother in blue out off Germany
The amount of respect shown! Thank you to all the police officers, firefighters, emts, and doctors for doing what you're doing in this crazy time I can't thank you enough!
Léandre Bonsaint Idk what your definition of unsafe is, but you might want to point your attentions towards parts of Europe and the Middle East. Yea we have a lot more annual crime, but was also have a huge population compared to most countries. When you look at the crime rates per 1000 people the numbers aren’t that much different than those of European countries which I assume you are considering to be the “safer” countries
The officer was shot in the back of the head taking a criminal to jail and they were transporting officer to airport to another hospital for treatment in Colorado
Bullshit, these cops got double pay to come in on their days off. This has nothing to do with an injured cop and more to do with extra $. I'm sure if you opened that cops file and see the shit he's done you wouldn't be so quick to say Hooray!

This honestly warmed my heart. During the trying times we live in it’s nice to see that we as humans can truthfully care for one another. Thank you for posting this.
I love every woman and man that we have used the uniform to give the best, I am the former Puerto Rico corrections officer and retired Carlos Rodríguez! God take care of me forever Amen
I wouldn’t say O’Conner deserved to be shot by the suspect but he didn’t check the suspect for anymore weapons when he was transporting him, bad policing if you ask me
my dad is a cop had felt this before he was gone to north carloina for surgey from a gun shot in the shoulder its sad im still praying thank you to officers across the nation we love you! getting injured in the force can happen any day.i wanna thank every serving person out there.we love you!
If you decide to come, avoid Detroit, Chicago, New York and California. Those are high violence states and cities. There's plenty other places to tour than those places.
It’s true our country has had bad times in the past it’s corrupt and they’re bad people but there are always good people in the world and as American citizens we can come together when needed and that’s good knowing being in the world we live in today😭🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💙💙💙
Why not?? That many police vehicles,..definitely not going to the cookout...Dunkin Donuts not have a fire sale...Red light not on @ Krispy Kremes...not many other reasons it could be dude.🤦🤷🤗
With the school shooting that happened just yesterday and all the other shootings and horrific events that have been happening lately, I’ve started to almost lose hope in humanity but stuff like this really brings out the best in us.
My dad was a police officer for 40 years since his retirement as assistant police of chief Tarrant county Fort Worth TX and I have deeply respect for all our officers because I belong in the Thin blue with the Officers who are protecting us from danger. And I am a son of a retired law enforcement dad who tried to do his best.
I was on the bridge with some of my firefighter buddies. Very left last truck you see. I'm no longer firefighting due to the time I served in Afghanistan I just can't be around the firefighter job anymore. Much respect to the officer though was a sad day.
@@lexifranks2100 He was shot in the back of the head by a suspect. That's as far as I know, my freinds called me up to see if I wanted to stand there with them, and obviously I said yes due to the respect I have for these people.
Wake up. Your dad choose to be a cop. No one put a gun to his head and made him be a cop. It’s people like you saying it’s so dangerous but you forget he choose it.
@@dacks3300 😂😂🤣 If none of these people chose to a cop or first responder to protect this country, you'd be out crying when something happens. Somehow, you are responding to his comment, yet you are mentioning things that he never said. Are you that blind? Does your brain work? It doesn't seem like it, you should get that checked out.
I'm not from US, but I pay respect to every officer on this world, that protect our lives. Without these men, there would be madness. Hope, that officer is healty. ❤ #backtheblue
I can't tell what department had the flag on the ladder truck but that was amazing to see, I'm from STL too and this is a example of how proud our community is of our brothers in blue.
The words, “Officer down” is enough for the whole town to come together, all races, all colors, all genders, they will all come together, for those two words, “Officer down”
Hearing the words “officer down, officer down, I repeat, officer down” threw your radio has to be one of the most heart-stopping experiences ever, we support the police officers keeping us safe in this dark time 💙 #backtheblue
A month ago one of our officers was killed on duty. Run over on his motorcycle by a truck driver who he wanted to pull over. The driver of the truck had already killed a lady in the past with his vehicle and injured an officer in a way that cost the officer his arm. He got a burial with honors. The video is his funeral procession. Recorded by the dutch police. ruclips.net/video/HtJVhil6jNY/видео.html ⚫🔵⚫
These are some common questions getting asked in the comment section 1.Is he dead? No he is not dead they are transporting him to an out of state hospital 2.Is this a funeral? Nope. Description will catch your up on anything you may have missed Officer O’Connor was shot in the back of the head while transporting a suspect. Today, 1/8/2018, we escorted him to the airport from SLU Hospital where he will go to Colorado for treatment. 2021 Update: Officer O'Connor is doing well and back at home spending his time with family. His wife Barbara says it best, "We are overwhelmed by the continued outpouring of love and support from friends, family, and strangers both near and far. While we still face unique challenges and are always learning to adapt to whatever comes next, Ryan is a reminder to count your blessings, not your heartaches!"
In the last two months we lost two officers. Officer David Romrell of SLC Unified Police who was intentionally run over by fleeing suspects, and earlier this week Provo officer Joseph Shinners who was shot by a fleeing felon. Both received police escorts not just by their respective departments but neighboring departments, fire, and in officer Romrell's case an MP Escort as he was also a Marine. It truly is a solid brotherhood.
@@kyouzkillinit You don't know them but instantly know that they deserved to die? Stop doing Meth you fucking idiot it makes it impossible to even succeed at the simplest troll..
first, this man survived being shot in the back of the head which is bad enough. Then in January, he had Covid-19. MASSIVE RESPECT for this man and his family!
I’m 13. My dad has been a firefighter over a year now. I’ve heard the stories, seen the worst. He’s gone a lot but I know he’s out there protecting the community and making a difference. This police officer probably has kids. Kids, your dad is making a difference. Thank you 😊
I’ve watched this tribute video countless times and no matter how many times I watch it I still get emotional and feel for officer O’Conner. We need to appreciate our EMS, Police officers and all other first responders for all they do to save lives while risking their own. As Trump would say: god bless our troops and god bless America. ❤❤❤😢🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
This is amazing. Something about the overpass with fire fighters does something to you as well. Massive amount of respect to those who serve us day in and day out even during the holidays.

If we tried the same here, you know it would be put down by the higher ups. Besides, we don't have anywhere near the numbers like this PD. Huge respect to all the EMS/police/fire for showing such respect.

hi im a German police ofiicer and when someone of our Dienststelle (department ) dies hes getting escorted by the GSG 9 ( an Elite Unit ) , its not so present to the public but way more in the department itself . Just a simple black helicopter and black cars with sirens and light driving through the city . To all paramedics, Firemens and Policeofficers keep going it might not pay out immediantly but at some point for sure !! Greetings from Your Brother in blue out off Germany
Here we are in 2019. Hope you've recovered very well man!!

The amount of respect shown! Thank you to all the police officers, firefighters, emts, and doctors for doing what you're doing in this crazy time I can't thank you enough!
Thank you for all your service. Keep on helping our country be safer everyday. Thank you again.
Your country isnt safe
惨ЖЖЖ奏 † КяФпіК † 奏ЖЖЖ惨Pubg Mobile what country are you in?
Léandre Bonsaint Idk what your definition of unsafe is, but you might want to point your attentions towards parts of Europe and the Middle East. Yea we have a lot more annual crime, but was also have a huge population compared to most countries. When you look at the crime rates per 1000 people the numbers aren’t that much different than those of European countries which I assume you are considering to be the “safer” countries
A tribute to all officers who are still here and a tribute to the fallen I sulut you
Its salute!!

I almost cried during this video. All the police agencys and fire departments came together to honour the offie being transported to a hospital.
Such a beautiful gesture, hope the officer is doing well now.
This was so refreshing to see. I got chills the entire time. God bless.
Same bro
I was crying
so nobody gonna mention the fact that when the first police car or the convoy reaches the airport, the last police car hasn't drive off yet???
Thank You! Officer O'Connor For Always being there for us and everyone in the city Thank you for you service Everyone
I'm from India and this came into my recommendation,i have no idea who that officer is or what's going on but Man that was Beautiful
The officer was shot in the back of the head taking a criminal to jail and they were transporting officer to airport to another hospital for treatment in Colorado
The amount of respect is amazing

As much as we give stick to the Americans, they know how to show love for their fallen and injured in the line of duty
Love back to you, my good fellow!
As an Englishman, this video gives me a huge amount of respect for the Americans. The respect they have for the fallen is astonishing
Our country may be shitty and lots of bad stuff happens but when someone who died trying to make this a better place we give them our respect.
Yes, it is apparent even to me, someone all the way in another continent ❤ their love for their first responders and armed forces is admirable!
Bullshit, these cops got double pay to come in on their days off. This has nothing to do with an injured cop and more to do with extra $. I'm sure if you opened that cops file and see the shit he's done you wouldn't be so quick to say Hooray!
Amazing a community pulling together like this truely the best people looking out for this guy
"So, uh, how many cops you think we're gonna have here?"
"Yes."
They got the hole 9 yards. Anything for a brother or sister !
This is sad but the officer is good it’s so dam sad if I was him I will call back up
I’m sad when I’m a police man I will try to be safe for others

With the school shooting that happened just yesterday and all the other shootings and horrific events that have been happening lately, I’ve started to almost lose hope in humanity but stuff like this really brings out the best in us.
My dad was a police officer for 40 years since his retirement as assistant police of chief Tarrant county Fort Worth TX and I have deeply respect for all our officers because I belong in the Thin blue with the Officers who are protecting us from danger. And I am a son of a retired law enforcement dad who tried to do his best.

Wake up. Your dad choose to be a cop. No one put a gun to his head and made him be a cop. It’s people like you saying it’s so dangerous but you forget he choose it.
@@dacks3300 😂😂🤣 If none of these people chose to a cop or first responder to protect this country, you'd be out crying when something happens.
Somehow, you are responding to his comment, yet you are mentioning things that he never said. Are you that blind? Does your brain work? It doesn't seem like it, you should get that checked out.
Exactly you fool, he chose it, he chose to put himself on the line, he chose to risk his very life to protect people, that is known as heroism.
first last so what do you do little shit? Most likely you havent done shit that is good for this world
Thank goodness this man was blessed with a recovery and not a funeral 🙏

A month ago one of our officers was killed on duty. Run over on his motorcycle by a truck driver who he wanted to pull over. The driver of the truck had already killed a lady in the past with his vehicle and injured an officer in a way that cost the officer his arm.
He got a burial with honors. The video is his funeral procession. Recorded by the dutch police.

Description will catch your up on anything you may have missed
Officer O’Connor was shot in the back of the head while transporting a suspect. Today, 1/8/2018, we escorted him to the airport from SLU Hospital where he will go to Colorado for treatment.
2021 Update: Officer O'Connor is doing well and back at home spending his time with family. His wife Barbara says it best, "We are overwhelmed by the continued outpouring of love and support from friends, family, and strangers both near and far. While we still face unique challenges and are always learning to adapt to whatever comes next, Ryan is a reminder to count your blessings, not your heartaches!"

U copied that from the description

In the last two months we lost two officers. Officer David Romrell of SLC Unified Police who was intentionally run over by fleeing suspects, and earlier this week Provo officer Joseph Shinners who was shot by a fleeing felon. Both received police escorts not just by their respective departments but neighboring departments, fire, and in officer Romrell's case an MP Escort as he was also a Marine. It truly is a solid brotherhood.
