On Patrol: Live Recap for June 5, 2026 (#OPL Episode 04-83)
- Greene County, Mo. — In the video clip below, Corporal Joe Duran responds to an alleged roommate disturbance/dispute and methodically mediates the situation with the parties such that the complainant who was allegedly locked out can remove his belongings, including his service dog, out of the apartment and “mosey on down the road.” The corporal and the studio panel explain that once someone establishes residence, it becomes a civil matter typically requiring the eviction process in court.
#OPLive studio analyst Tom RIzzo: “…people don’t understand it. Let somebody stay with them, and they establish that as their domicile, you can’t just say ‘okay, you’re out.’ You have to actually file a writ with the court to have them lawfully removed.” #OPLive host Dan Abrams: “Reminder: don’t have that guest stay too long.”
Cpl. Duran recap: “The roommate showed up. We had some miscommunication, I think, within the stories. The caller said he didn’t have a key to have access the apartment. The other guy said they did have a key and had access to the apartment, but he let them in. He’s gonna let them get their stuff. I think they’re just gonna get on down the road for tonight. No telling how this might turn out in a couple of days. They might be back together, hanging out again. But for now, I think we’re gonna let them adult and try to take care of it on their own. They seem to be taking care of it okay for right now. So we’ll probably just leave them to it and let them move their stuff out.”
- Clayton County, Ga. — Deputy Bryant Ferguson and other cops responds to report of a fight in progress at a restaurant.
Deputy Ferguson recap: “What we got going on right now, it was like I said, the caller called and just said send someone. There was a fight going on between a whole bunch of people. She put the phone down, and dispatch could still hear in the background people fighting, causing a disturbance. Upon our arrival, everyone started leaving, and the fight was broken up. That’s how it happens; once we get on scene, everyone just starts to leave. So it looks like everyone that was part of the disturbance or the fight left out of the parking lot, and they’re fine now, so we’re gonna make sure everything’s secure here, scene’s secure, and then we’re just gonna move on to the next one.”
- Fullerton, Calif. — Officers Michael Orr and Dylan Valdez respond to a report of a possible burglary at a residence. The homeowner’s security camera showed the garage door as well as the door from the garage to the interior are open. Police make contact with the homeowner and clear the residence. After an investigation, it turns out to be a “family issue” rather than a burglary.
In the audio clip below, Tom Rizzo and Sean Larkin in the #OPLive studio explain that cops responding to a burglary often don’t activate their siren so as to avoid alerting possible suspects that police are on the way:
Officer Orr recap: “So after reviewing the photos and trying to talk to her, this appears to more of a family issue, with her father in law passing away. It seems like either sister in law took it upon herself to come here and get property, or the the brother, or the husband, who’s in Hong Kong right now probably told his sister that it was okay to get property because she had access to the garage and the key to the house. So at this point, it’s more of a family issue, like a civil type of thing between her. I just don’t think she was told that this was gonna happen today, so it probably scared her when she saw her stuff open, which is… understandable for her. So right now, we’re helping her secure the house, so she can go back to work, and we’ll be out of here in a second.” The cops politely decline the homeowner’s gift of some beauty cream.
- Toledo, Ohio (pre-recorded segment) — Police pursue a car driving backwards (Abrams: “Let’s just say the officers and the fleeing driver could see eye to eye the entire time”):
Dan Abrams: “Wow: Well, those officers said they’d never seen anything like it before. I’ve never seen anything on this show…” Sean Larkin: “Listen, in 25 years, I’ve never seen anything like that…that’s a once-in-a-lifetime type of deal..”
- Knox County, Tenn. — On Patrol: Live caption: “Report of fleeing DUI scene.” Officer Tyler Thoman and other units respond to the location and make contact with the complainant on a possible “little fender bender.” Officer Thoman and other units make contact on scene with the couple from the alleged suspect car who are detained. Officer Thoman to the “somewhat belligerent” male: “It ain’t no big thing…I don’t think I’m an asshole; I’m being pretty respectful, dude…this attitude you got with me is not gonna work…” Crash investigation ensues. Field sobriety testing administered on the female. On Patrol: Live caption: “Arrested for DUI.”
Abrams: “Usually in a situation like this, there’d be two questions: Number one, who was driving, and number two, is he drunk? And in this case, it seems there’s only on question, whether he was driving…”
Officer Thoman recap: “So we’re just at a point right now whereas I’m talking to them. She’s belligerent. She can’t even stand. She about fell into the other car over there. We’re getting statements from the vehicle that she ran into, that she’s the driver, and she’s impaired…that’s not acceptable to me. So she’s gonna go down to the Roger D. Wilson [Dentition Facility] with her publicly intoxicated, belligerent husband, and her DUI with property damage.” Abrams: “So they’re both getting arrested. Looks like him for public intoxication, and her for driving under the influence.”
Abrams: “Getting a PI, not as in Magnum…this is a different kind of PI…” Larkin: “The one you don’t want.”
- Richland County, S.C. (pre-recorded segment) — a BOLO for shoot-out suspects:
On Patrol: Live Hour 2
- Tempe, Ariz. — On Patrol: Live caption: “Report of vehicle vs. apartment.” Officer Nick Prentice and other units respond to a parking garage at an apartment complex where they locate the car allegedly involved. Abrams: “Seems like they’ve identified the vehicle.” Officer Prentice: “So we have the vehicle identified. We’re gonna go talk to the apartment complex, see if there’s anybody there that can hopefully give us a room or where they stay here.”
Officer Prentice preliminary recap: “We responded out to the apartment complex where the Tesla went into an apartment of it. We ended up finding the Tesla in the parking garage of the complex. Matched damage to it; appeared to be the same as the vehicle that went into the apartment complex. So officers are gonna be seizing that vehicle and ultimately seeing if we can get a search warrant for the vehicle, then possibly getting the video out of it.”
- Richland County, S.C. (pre-recorded segment) — Master Deputy Deon Mathis assists on a pursuit. A male who apparently foot-bailed from a vehicle is arrested:
- Richland County, S.C. — Corporal Avery Arrington responds makes contact with the complainant at an apartment complex about someone allegedly refusing to return his personal belongings. Report apparently to be filed.
- Tempe, Ariz. — On Patrol: Live caption: “Roommate dispute.” Officers Nelson Chicas-Ramos and Chris Heckel serve a no-contact order on a female who is at an apartment unit. The cops enable her to gather up her belongings and leave the location as required by the court order. On Patrol: Live caption: “Order of protection issued.” Officer Chicas-Ramos: “…I understand it’s a tough situation…again, the judge approved this, and we’re just serving you the paperwork, okay?” The officer also explains that she can go to court to appeal the order.
Listen below as Officer Chicas-Ramos recaps the situation followed by some On Patrol: Live studio commentary from Tom Rizzo:
- Triple Play #1 — A Cameron, Texas, police pursuit:
- Knox County, Tenn. — Officer Jordon Tolliver and colleagues respond to a report of stolen vehicle. Police quickly find the parked vehicle. The driver apparently is a DoorDash driver. Officer Tolliver: “Looks like he may have forgot where his vehicle was.” The driver comes to the scene. A six-pack is allegedly found in the vehicle. After an investigation, the driver ends up getting released. On Patrol: Live caption: “Delivery driver reunited with vehicle.”
Dan Abrams update: “Well, it turns out they now believe that those Natty Daddies that they found in the vehicle were from a couple of days ago, just as the guy said. He was released with no charges.”
Greene County, Mo. — Sergeant Paige Rippee conducts a motorcycle stop for no plates. The sergeant allegedly smells alcohol. Sgt. Rippee: “…talking to him, he is more than likely under the influence of alcohol. He has consented to some field sobriety tests, so I have another deputy that’s gonna come and do a couple of field sobriety tests on him.” In chatting with the subject, Sgt. Rippee mentions that “two beers could be a lot, and two beers could be not a lot.” In the meantime, I’m gonna make sure that he’s a valid driver, and we will see where he’s at. PBT administered after the FSTs. On Patrol: Live caption: “Arrested for DUI.”
Driver: “I’ve literally had, like, two beers.”
Sgt. Rippee follow up: “Corporal Wallace has determined through his DWI investigation that this subject is impaired, and he is in custody and going to…the Greene County Jail for driving under the influence.”
On Patrol: Live Hour 3
- Colton, Calif. — On Patrol: Live caption: “Report of fight and vandalism.” Officer Thomas Enriquez and other cops respond to a neighbor dispute and issues warnings. Officer Enriquez to a male on scene: “Whatever the issue is: Stay away from your neighbor. Stay away from your neighbor’s house. Stay away from your neighbor’s car. Stay in your house, and they will stay at their house…” Another officer apparently has taken a report about what allegedly transpired and which will be submitted to the district attorney.
- Toledo, Ohio — Officers Dallas Kwapich and Eric Draper, among other LEOs, respond to an officer assist/officer in distress call. Cops on scene disperse a crowd at a street festival. Heavy bleeping.
Officer Kwapich: “Escorting people out now. Whatever the issue was seems to have calmed down.” Detective Jake Bombrys: “So we just basically helped move the crowds here. We’re gonna hang out, make sure everybody leaves, and just doesn’t hang out, and just kind of cause more problems where they are right now. If they do, we might have to deploy pepper balls or something like. But for now, we’re just gonna hang out, make sure everybody clears out, and everything kind of stays calm.”
Detective Dustin Mickles follow-up: “Come up here to assist some deputy sheriffs. They had trouble with dispersing a crowd out here…essentially kind of turned into a standoff, with us standing on one corner, and them standing on another corner, yelling and screaming at us…if anything starts back up, we’ll be back out here.”
Dan Abrams: “Gotta wonder if that clown does kids’ parties.”
- Baton Rouge, La. — Sergeant Jordon Lear and a colleague respond to a report of someone allegedly screaming at a motel. They make contact with a male in a motel room. Sgt. Lear upon approaching the door to knock: “I smell the herbs.” The man answers door and says everything is okay. Sgt. Lear allegedly notices drugs: “You the weed man.” On Patrol: Live caption: “Drugs found.” The subject is detained.
Listen below to Sgt. Lear describe what police allegedly found in the motel room:
- Colton, Calif. — Police are called back to the same location as above for a possible disturbance when one of the parties came outside to check his mail. An off-duty security guard has handcuffed a male on scene. Abrams: “This is the guy that they warned before: Stay away; don’t cause problems…citizens arrest there.” Cell phone video appears to show two men on scene allegedly fighting. One of the parties apparently wants to press charges. Report to be filed; it will apparently be up to the district attorney to decide whether charges are filed.
Officer Enriquez summary: “So, at this point, since a 242 [simple battery] did occur between both subjects,” police will submit a report to the district attorney’s office,” which will “make the decision whether or not to file charges.”
