Because you
are the backup. (Jesus Christ, I am BEGGING for a head banging against a brick wall smiley.) If a suspect becomes violent in public you cannot wait and hide because your job is to
protect the public.
You react, using years of cognitive training, to stop the threat to yourself (and the public) using whatever means necessary up to and including lethal force.
Seriously? Roll up the window and wait for backup?
Seriously?
