Great article on how to help a LEO in need of assistance.

Greg Ellifritz is a police officer who writes great articles. Here's a link to one that may come in handy in these days of craziness.

 
Good article.

Step one - carry your damn gun! Yep...never leave home without it. A lot of the other advice is in my SOP if I ever have to use my weapon at all - holster as soon as possible. Call the police, or have friends call the police if I'm unable, to describe me and the fact that I'm a "good guy". And never, ever draw my weapon unless all other options have been tried first.

Interesting takeaway from the article, too - here in Maryland, we are not required to disclose if we are carrying during a traffic stop. I'd always wondered - "does it pop when they run my license?". I guess - at least in the author's home state - it does.

Here in PA we are to tell the officer first thing. And it does come up when they run your DL.

In Kentucky where I currently live a permit is not required to carry concealed or open. As far as a requirement to tell an officer I would if stopped keep my hands on the steering wheel and inform the officer as soon as appropriate that I have a weapon on me or in my truck.
