Living with Fear

LIVING WITH FEAR (A Quest for Survival) J. I. Granville Officer Mike dedicated himself to justice. During his twenty-four-year tour, he experienced twenty injuries! He was assaulted with fists, bricks, guns and even cars. He was dragged down the street while making a drug arrest. His rear window was blown out by a shotgun blast. He was thrown from a second-floor landing. His cruiser was hit head-on by a wrong-way driver. His left bicep was torn while arresting a homicide suspect. His windshield was struck by bullets during a high-speed chase. His lungs burned when saving a child from a tenement fire. While serving, Mike was rewarded with smiles, gratitude and respect from: A husband whose wife was revived by his CPR. A young suicidal woman who wanted to know why he cared. An inebriated man who appreciated Mike’s respect. A lost female driver safely escorted to a highway entrance. A teenage addict who thanked Mike for buying her a Coke. The families of homicide victims who found justice. The suspects who were proven innocent.
