IAB: So Officer Howard how did the suspect get your gun?
Howard: He elbowed me in the gut and snatched it out my holster.
IAB: So he was handcuffed in the front?
Howard: Yes. Captain Santana cuffed him like that.
IAB: So I was told that the suspect was calm when he put in your custody. How did he get riled up?
Howard: I don't know. Maybe his ex wife did it.
IAB: So you didn't say anything to him?
Howard: No.
IAB: Can your partner attest to that?
Howard: Yes he can.
IAB: That's all for now.

Rep: I'm here we can proceed.
IAB: Officer Lopez how long have you and Officer Howard been partners?
Rep: Not relevant. Move on.
