Cops can normally expect to deal with criminals, murderers and unscrupulous individuals. Having to arrest one of their own is not what they normally have to face, but police work is far from normal and so is the FBI. UK criminals have always thought that Spain is the perfect place to hide when they go on the run from UK police. But after 13 years, one wanted man is finally arrested in a daring raid, all caught on camera. Officers in Grand Rapids are called out to deal with a man with a gun, when he shoots at an officer the whole force is mobilised. What they don’t know is that this is not your standard shooter; this is the FBI. Cops in Cleveland are faced with a deadly situation as they save a woman from certain death. Body Cam Cops has the exclusive footage and exclusive interviews with both the victim and the officer who stopped the brutal attack. From Santiago, Chile, Body Cam Cops has another exclusive. Footage of a courageous cop chasing a professional thief on bike, foot and car. This officer goes the distance to bring in his man. Jumping over bridges, running across rail tracks and flagging down cars as he refuses to let the criminal get away.

Police are the first emergency service. Police bodycams is the first witness as events unfold. The cameras capture both the heroic and the most controversial moments. In Utah cops are faced with a vehicle overturned in a freezing river for 14 hours. Body Cam Cops has the moment that rescuers realize there is someone trapped, but alive. It is a fight for survival and a truly amazing incident. In Dallas police chase down a man wanted on warrants. The chase begins in the car and ends on foot, but what shocks officers is the criminal’s young passenger, left abandoned in the back of the vehicle. In Texas police body worn cameras come to the rescue of an innocent mother and her two young daughters as they are wrongly arrested. Normally when the public call in to report an incident they expect to be listened to by the responding officer, not judged and lectured by a cop who seems to have forgotten the original reason for his visit. Body Cam Cops has exclusive footage from a dramatic rescue in Chile. A building has collapsed, people are trapped and the cops are on scene to frantically search through the rubble in the hope of finding life.

Police work is a varied job. It varies day to day and country to country. The only guarantee is that no two days are normally the same. This means the men and women doing the job have to be highly trained to face every eventuality. Chile is home to one of the driest regions on Earth. When things go wrong in the Atacama Desert, the impact can be intense and deadly. This is why Chile’s police rescue helicopters are often the first line of defence. We have exclusive footage from the worst flood in recent times that devastated an entire region, destroyed families and changed lives forever. In Grand Rapids, Michigan cops on a routine truancy petrol come across a wanted man. But he doesn’t come peacefully and instead officers are involved in a deadly shoot-out. Police bodycams in the US are recording when an innocent nurse is wrongfully arrested in one of the most notorious pieces of footage from 2017. Body Cam Cops has the interview with Nurse Wubbles, who fought the law and won. Traffic stops are bread and butter to police patrols and should be straight forward when the offender is driving at night with no lights. But officers in Ohio weren’t expecting the verbal bashing they got one night when their traffic stop went wild!

Front-line cops across the world have to deal with criminals they are trying to arrest, attempting to use deadly force in a bid to escape. For this reason, police forces often arm their officers. It’s a recipe for bloodshed, but when a criminal is prepared to shoot first, the cops have to make sure they never shoot again. In South Carolina, a cop is shot at point blank range. His capture glasses record everything as he fights for his life and ordinary members of the American public come to his rescue. In Spain the police have a not-so-secret-weapon, The Gangster Catcher of Europe. She is not only determined to bring every criminal to justice, she is also good at her job, very good. We have an exclusive interview with her and the moment one of her most high-profile cases is cracked, as she tracks down a dangerous British fugitive who escaped from a UK court and went on the run in Spain for years. In Clovis, New Mexico a cop is faced with a strange traffic stop. A man on a bike, riding at night with no lights. Everything is going well, until the man flees. The officer chases him down and takes a bullet for his efforts. Not every incident police are called to involves a criminal. In Charlotte, Michigan, police are called to a house fire. A family are stuck inside and the brave cops have to get everyone out before the place erupts in flames.

Policing is one of the toughest careers on Earth and sometimes even the most earnest of cops get it wrong. When they do the ramifications are massive. Their actions can taint every officer on the force and change lives for ever. Some crimes are so violent and so personally motivated that every cop involved and person affected will never forget the events. We have access to cops in South Euclid, USA, who chase down a wanted man, corner him in Lake Eerie and bring him down. Only then do they learn how dangerous and murderous he really is. In Sao Paulo, Brazil, we have the moment a gang of kidnappers are brought down by flash police raids. One of the most prolific cities in the world for kidnapping, cops here are experts at tracking these criminals down, but every raid is dangerous. In Savannah, USA, cops get it wrong, very wrong. This time police body cameras act as the gatekeeper. Proving the action of officers to be wrong and saving an innocent man from going to jail for no justifiable reason. In South Africa motorbike cops never give up. We have amazing footage of a chase through a township with the officer firing at the gang’s car and finally bringing it to a halt, all on his own!

Across the world, policing has key characteristics: find criminal, catch criminal, arrest criminal. But the reality of each case can be scary and dangerous, as most criminals have no intention of being brought to justice. In Grand Rapids, USA, we have exclusive access to the police officers involved in the manhunt and capture of a dangerous and desperate felon. He breaks free from a stun gun and hides from officers on a building site. Finally, he makes a break for freedom and attacks an officer. In the UK police are taken by surprise by a man and his Samurai sword. An officer is stabbed and it’s a race to the hospital to save his life. In the sleepy town of Glendale – one of the safest places in America – an officer on a routine call is suddenly faced with a man intent on killing. Shots are fired as the cop is forced into oncoming traffic with the crazed knifeman in pursuit. While in Brazil we interview the dog handler who single-handedly tracked down two armed robbers who tried to escape arrest in the jungle.
