you had equipment being staged from washington. you had the united states marshals and their team and their technical resources and they're specialists in the man hunt business. of course, you had customs and border patrol on the ground with bortac which is a highly specialized s.w.a.t. team that they use including this k-9, and you know, using the k-9 as a less than lethal option to separate the suspect from the gun is probably what allowed them to take him alive, but you have to remember that for customs and border protection, i think they've lost about nine of these k-9s in the line of duty. it's dangerous work for them and dangerous work for the dogs and of course, you had the dea aircraft and the key there, was, they found a heat signal, but they said is that a deer? is that a person? what does it look like? we have a signal and it appears to be an individual who is crawling and that was at 1:00 in the morning and it gave them gris to say let's surround that thing and wait for daylight and let's see what it is and it turned ou
