Ep. 66 Derrick McManus South Australian Police Officer (STAR GROUP) shot 14 times

On today's Zero Limits Podcast we chat to former South Australian Special Tasks and Rescue Police Officer Derrick McManus shot 14 times during a high risk arrest warrant.

For 11-years Derrick was a Police counter-terrorist operative (trained by military SAS), sniper and special ops diver with the elite Special Tasks And Rescue (STAR) Group. They were trained for the safe resolution of high-risk incidents. 

In an operation to arrest a high-risk offender, Derrick was shot 14 times with a Chinese military assault rifle. He was isolated from his team and bleeding from severed arteries in both forearms, massive torso injuries, two bullets in the left thigh, a bullet through the right Achilles tendon and more for three hours.  After two-and-a-half years after the shooting, despite still carrying huge physical disablements, he returned to full duties with STAR Group.
