Episode 3: Fentanyl, Fast Stops and Wild Nights on Patrol

In Episode 3 of EMBEDDED, I spend several days and nights inside the Salt Lake City Police Department - moving between Bike Units, the Violent Criminal Apprehension Team (VCAT), community social workers, as well as day and night patrol. Salt Lake City is known for its beauty, but like every major metro area, there’s a harder side most people never see. This episode takes you directly into that reality: • A meth suspect carrying his father’s ashes • A large fentanyl powder bust downtown • VCAT’s buy/walk and box-in operation • A fleeing suspect with felony warrants that goes from quiet to chaotic in seconds • Mental health and homeless calls that show the human side of the job It’s a look at policing in Salt Lake City - the calm, the unexpected, and the moments that stay with you long after the shift ends. 👉 Subscribe:    / @embeddedseries
