At Fault

A San Andreas Highway Patrol (SAHP) Trooper came under assault by an armed man directly after being involved in a vehicle collision in the late afternoon. Realizing he was being stopped by police, the suspect exited his vehicle and approached the Trooper with a blunt weapon. As the Trooper drew his service weapon in response, however, the suspect attempted to retreat to their vehicle before being apprehended by the Trooper at gunpoint.
