“ Statement from the official about the incident”I never imagined that after all we’ve trained, after so many years of serving honor, I’d end up giving explanations for something as absurd as this. But that’s the world today: social media records one second and forgets the context. And suddenly, an act of help turns into a viral scandal.That day we were patrolling the northern area, as usual. I was going with officer Torres, a brave, dedicated colleague and with whom I have worked shoulder to shoulder for three years. Suddenly, a call alerted us to a disturbance near an abandoned location. Wasted no time we turned up. Upon arrival, an armed subject ran out to see us, and without a word shot at us. One of the projectiles hit Torres.The shot was direct, brutal, and hit him right in the upper thigh, very close to the groin. It fell to the ground right away. I, without thinking, ran beside her and watched her bleed. We didn’t know if the bullet had lodged or if he had left, but he was in shock, and his body was shaking. I tried to keep her conscious while she radioed for backups. She screamed, she twisted… and yes, I admit it, their moans were confusing. Whoever listens to the audio without seeing what really happened can think anything.But that was pain, not pleasure. That was the body reacting to trauma, not desire.
