Synopsis for "The Cop without a Gun"
Officer Tom Herrick apprehends a criminal on the run named Leroy Madman Hall. Hall breaks through a police road block and heads towards Herricks direction. Herrick gets the idea to raise a drawbridge just as Madman Hall drives across. His plan works and Hall plunges into the water below where he is apprehended by Herrick without the use of a weapon. On another occasion Herrick is leaving the theater when a robber holds up the the theater ticket box. Herrick shouts at the thief to put down his gun or he will shoot. The thief willingly gives up and puts up his hands as the sound of gunfire erupts all around them. The two men had been standing in front of a theater that was playing a war movie with a loud shooting scene. This had scared the thief into believing that he was being fired upon. In the final scene, Herrick is pursuing a criminal named Jack Shaw near a sports stadium. Shaw surprises Herrick and sticks a gun in his back. He asks Herrick to remove his police uniform so he can impersonate a law officer. He then tells Herrick that he intends to escort him to a nearby car under the pretense that he is transferring a criminal. Shaw feels that no one will question an officer in the line of duty. Herrick then suggests that he keep his gun pointed on him to make it more believable. The two walk towards the stadium parking lot when they run into a couple of police officers. Herrick tells Shaw to identify himself as Officer Tom Herrick. Shaw follows Herricks instructions but the two police officers immediately draw their guns and make Shaw give himself up. The two officers state the they know he is not the real Tom Herrick because that particular officer never uses a gun. They apprehend Shaw but one of the officers then asks Herrick why he never uses a gun. Herrick responds by saying that he immigrated to American from London where he served as a Bobby. He reiterates that English Bobbies never carry a gun.
