Deputy Olson pursued a speeding motorist who turned out to be wanted felon, armed with two handguns. As Olson was attempting to control the suspect who had dropped one pistol on the ground, a second gun, a .45, was drawn and Olson was shot in his Second Chance® IIIA Monarch, the round catching the vest under his right armpit area. Olson drew his own weapon and returned fire emptying his 15-round magazine at his assailant striking him 14-times. The subject was believed to be on drugs and was still struggling when Olson’s backup arrived. The subject died shortly after being placed in custody.
