@FOPNATIONAL@GLFOPNATIONAL FRATERNAL ORDER OF POLICE328 MASSACHUSETTS AVE., NE • WASHINGTON, DC 20002NATURE OF THE ATTACKSEvery felonious attack on a law enforcement officer, especially by gunfire, isdisturbing regardless of the circumstances. Officers are always susceptible tolife-threatening attacks and therefore must always be vigilant and maintain thehighest level of situational awareness.In most cases, officers are able to quickly assess situations, recognize threats,and take adequate defensive actions. Tragically, not every threat can be seen ormitigated. Perhaps most troubling and worrisome are ambush-style and othercalculated attacks on law enforcement.Premeditated ambush-style attacks are particularly disturbing and pernicious.These types of attacks are carried out with an element of surprise and intendedto deprive officers of their ability to defend against the attack. Premeditatedattacks contribute to a worrisome desensitization to evil acts that were oncelargely considered taboo except by the most depraved individuals.In 2020, 49 percent of shooting incidents involved a discernible element ofpremeditation, which is a 7 percent increase over 2019. AMBUSH-STYLE ATTACKAn "ambush-style attack" is definedas when an officer is struck bygunfire without any warning oropportunity to defend themselves.FOP MONTHLY UPDATE: OFFICERS SHOT AND KILLED IN THE LINE OF DUTY1 SEPTEMBER 2022

@FOPNATIONAL@GLFOPNATIONAL FRATERNAL ORDER OF POLICE328 MASSACHUSETTS AVE., NE • WASHINGTON, DC 20002In October 2015, the U.S. Department of Justice released a report entitled:Ambushes of Police. The report detailed the number of ambush attacks onlaw enforcement officers from 1990-2013. In 2013 alone, there were between200 and 300 ambush attacks reported. The Executive Summary states:"…the proportion of fatal attacks on officers attributableto ambushes [is] increasing. Concerns about targetedviolence against police are on the rise, while officersmust not only be guardians of the public but also beprepared to respond to violence targeting them."THE GROWING CONCERN"56 percent were not on a call or engaged in anyenforcement activity. Many of these officers weresimply eating, sitting on post, or in five cases, targetedand killed while at their home or on their way home."A December 2017 study by the Office of Community Oriented PolicingServices entitled Making It Safer, examined law enforcement officer fatalitiesfrom 2010-2016, including ambush attacks. The study found that 20% ofambushed officers were seated in their patrol cars and that:In May 2017, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) released a reportentitled: The Assailant Study: Mindset and Behavior. The report identified adisturbing and growing trend of attackers who are motivated by a desire tokill a law enforcement officer. This motivation, the report concludes, is froma “singular narrative that portrays the officer as guilty in traditional andsocial media and the subject as the victim.”FOP MONTHLY UPDATE: OFFICERS SHOT AND KILLED IN THE LINE OF DUTY1 SEPTEMBER 2022
