Dennis Collins: A warm welcome back to Heroes Behind the Badge.
0:11
I'm Dennis Collins, joined by Craig Floyd and Bill Erfurth.
0:15
In the last episode, we heard the first part of FBI Special Agent Ed Mireles'
0:21
incredible story from April 11th, 1986.
0:25
The day that became known as the bloodiest in FBI history, Ed and his fellow agents
0:31
had tracked down two ruthless bank robbers in a residential neighborhood in Miami.
0:36
The chase ended in a crash and a deadly gunfight had begun.
0:42
When we left Ed, he had been shot twice.
0:45
His left arm was nearly destroyed.
0:48
He was bleeding from his head wound and he was lying on the
0:51
ground with bullets still flying overhead, but his mindset was clear.
0:56
This is survivable.
0:58
Now, ed is going to tell us in his own words how he survived and how
1:03
he ended one of the most intense gunfights in law enforcement history
1:08
using just one arm and a shotgun.
1:11
Craig Floyd: So with, with the bullets flying over your head and
1:14
you laying on the ground realizing you've been seriously injured.
1:18
Somehow you miraculously, I guess, get to your feet, but you still got a shotgun.
1:23
I'm not a gun guy.
1:24
But how do you end the gunfight with a shotgun when you've
1:28
got only one arm to use?
1:30
Ed Mireles: Well, you know what, I've been asked that question, uh, so many times.
1:33
You know, and people are looking for, for, um, I don't know what the,
1:38
what the, what my explanation is.
1:41
They're looking for a. A pill.
1:44
They're looking for a, a silver bullet, you know, answer.
1:47
And I don't have one for 'em.
1:49
Um.
1:51
People have said, Hey, when, what you did, you know, with the one
1:55
hand racking and so on and so forth, did you ever practice that?
1:58
I said, nope.
2:00
Did you ever see it in a movie?
2:01
I said, nope.
2:02
Did you ever read it in the book?
2:03
I said, no.
2:05
I said, you know, uh, under stress, you know, if you maintain a disciplined
2:11
mindset, you know, I mean, you know, maintain your discipline,
2:14
focus on, on, on what you're doing, focus on survival and not panic.
2:18
Okay.
2:19
Uh, don't, don't get, uh.
2:21
Fight or flight, it's fight, fight, flight, freeze, don't
2:25
freeze, and you still have the option of running if you have to.
2:30
Okay.
2:31
But at this point in time, I, I didn't have the option of running.
2:33
I had to sit and fight.
2:35
So I was disciplined, focused, always looking for plans, you know, and
2:39
it's amazing how your brain under.
2:42
Your mind is working.
2:43
I some, some doctors say, you know, your mind can work a hundred miles a second.
2:47
I mean, I don't know what that means, but I will tell you this.
2:49
I had scenarios going through my mind.
2:52
I was like, discarding them.
2:53
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. I was going through, through different
2:57
scenarios, different options.
2:58
Every time I moved to a different position, a scenario would come up, I'd
3:03
move some more and okay, you can't do that anymore you gotta do this sort.
3:06
The mind was just constantly working, working, working, uh, trying, trying to
3:10
get out, uh, trying to figure out where the threat was, eliminate the threat.
3:14
Okay.
3:14
And then, you know, af after the, uh, the threats eliminated that
3:17
then you can get aid, you know?
3:18
So, um, that was my, that was my purpose.
3:21
But anyway, getting back to what your question asked.
3:23
Yeah.
3:24
How did I do that?
3:26
It just, it was an epiphany.
3:28
Okay.
3:29
I'm, I leaned up against the car.
3:31
The way I'm sitting right now.
3:32
I'm on my butt on the ground and I, I looked over to the left
3:36
like this, trying to peek around to see where the bad guys were.
3:38
'cause I, I maneuvered on my back.
3:40
I kind of flanked, flanked them, um, on the ground.
3:45
'cause I mean, I couldn't stand up, so I was crawling on my back and I came around
3:49
and I saw peeked around the car and I saw them thinking, Hey, I've got the
3:52
shotgun, I've got, I had the, uh, the, uh, trigger grip in my right hand like this.
3:57
And I said, I've got the shotgun, but I don't have a left arm.
4:00
You know, so, because you need two, two hands to steady a shotgun.
4:03
Otherwise, you know, it's not gonna be steady.
4:05
And I'm thinking, how can I steady the shotgun?
4:09
And as I'm looking at the whole scene, I see the bumper of the car
4:13
that I'm leaning up against and I'm thinking, Hey, there's a bumper,
4:16
the lip on the bumper right here.
4:17
So I said, Hey, this will be my left arm.
4:19
I set the shotgun on the bumper, you know, had my right hand on the, on the grip.
4:26
The trigger and I'm thinking, okay, line up the sights.
4:29
And I said, just let you know.
4:30
Let it go.
4:31
Press the trigger.
4:31
Boom.
4:32
And when I, when it, it fired, the recoil brought me back and it just was so
4:37
natural that I just came back like this, back to the original setting position.
4:41
I had the shotgun in my hand like this.
4:43
I think, Hey, I'll just let the shotgun slide through my hand
4:47
down until it hits the ground.
4:49
I'll pitch with my legs, rack it, go down to the pistol grip again.
4:55
Bring it up, put the gun on the, on the lip and fire.
4:59
Okay.
5:01
Never trained it, never saw it in the movie.
5:04
And it just, it was a total epiphany, you know?
5:07
And, um, it, it's, it's, it was, you know, almost like a God-sent miracle
5:12
because I'm thinking, you know, how else, how else could, could,
5:16
could I have come up with that?
5:17
I mean, I'm, I'm not that I.
5:21
I can't say that I'm not that bright, but you know, in a survival environment,
5:25
you know, when you're fighting for your life, you know, everything, anything
5:28
and everything is, is an option
5:30
Craig Floyd: close.
5:31
So how close were you to, to them when you shot 'em and ended it?
5:35
Ed Mireles: I was going back to, uh, wound ballistics.
5:41
Okay.
5:41
At, by that point in time, the gun fight's going on for about three minutes now.
5:46
So I, I've been wounded for three minutes.
5:49
Uh, I'm bleeding out for three minutes.
5:51
So at that point in time, you know, I was losing consciousness.
5:54
I would, my, my eyes were actually drooping down and
5:57
things were getting dark.
5:59
All, you know, around my, my vision.
6:01
And if you're looking at me, looking at me on the video, my head as I'm
6:10
working my head would actually do this.
6:13
And I'd have to shake myself awake.
6:14
Uh, and I knew I was passing out from, from, uh, blood loss, so
6:18
I, I had to keep shaking my head and my head was still going.
6:22
Like that, you know, like I, so I had to fight to stay awake.
6:26
So I'm thinking, oh man, I'm, I, I'm getting close, I'm bleeding out,
6:30
you know, instinctively I knew, Hey listen, you know, we gotta, we gotta
6:33
move this along, you know, you know, so at, at some point in time, um.
6:42
I don't mind talking about this because, but it's very personal.
6:45
At some point in time, I, I, um, I had a conversation with God, you know,
6:50
'cause I knew at, at one point, and I hope you never have to get to it.
6:55
I mean, I, maybe we all have to get to that point in life, you know.
6:57
But at one point, I, I came to the realization in, in my heart and in
7:02
my mind that I was going to die.
7:05
Okay?
7:05
Because I was doing this, I was going.
7:08
I, I was, I couldn't hold my head up.
7:10
I was just like, it was, it was, uh, getting darker and darker and darker.
7:15
So I'm thinking, Hey, you know what, uh, I'm gonna die.
7:18
And when I said I'm gonna die, another miracle, uh, I became fearless.
7:26
There was no fear.
7:27
Okay.
7:27
I'm thinking, Hey, what, what are they gonna do to me?
7:29
Send me to Miami.
7:30
You know, I'm gonna die.
7:31
You know?
7:32
So I have not, I mean, I have nothing else to lose, you know?
7:36
'cause I've already it.
7:37
Acknowledge that I'm going to die, I'm gonna lose, I'm gonna give up my life.
7:41
Okay, so what else can people do to you?
7:43
Bill Erfurth: So Ed, I want to ask, so you finished them off and
7:48
that's the end of this gun fight.
7:50
It's pretty dramatic gun fight, obviously.
7:52
Mm mm-hmm.
7:53
How many times did you rack that shotgun?
7:56
Do you know?
7:57
Five times.
7:59
Five times.
7:59
So you did it five times, one arm by putting it on the ground between
8:04
your knees and, and mm-hmm functioned it completely as you had described.
8:08
So five times.
8:09
That's incredible.
8:11
Ed Mireles: Again, you know, it was, um, it just.
8:14
When, when you're desperate to survive, I mean, you are scanning,
8:18
your mind is scanning for options.
8:20
You know, it's like, oh, that's good.
8:21
No, that's, that's stupid.
8:22
This is good.
8:23
This may work.
8:24
And then you come up with, with one or two options.
8:26
Okay.
8:27
My other option was I, well, maybe I can stand up and actually hold
8:31
the shotgun one handed and move in on, on the car that they were in.
8:35
You know, actually, I mean, actually get it.
8:38
For lack of a better term, and there's no, there's no way I could have done it.
8:43
Assault... but you know, that word assault, assault the car,
8:47
moving towards the car to get the shotgun up in their face, really.
8:51
I mean, that was my intention because I figured, hey, I only get one shot.
8:55
Okay.
8:57
The, the shot that's in, in the, in the chamber, you know, I get one shot, put it
9:01
right in their face, fire the shot, and then drop the gun and go to my revolver.
9:05
And so I'll be at the car.
9:06
That was also an option, but I said, well, you know what, I like staying far away.
9:10
So,
9:12
so I decided to go with the, with the racking action.
9:16
Bill Erfurth: So how, how long did you have to stay in the hospital after that?
9:19
Ed Mireles: Yeah, I was in the hospital for
9:24
a little over.
9:25
A little over two weeks and I was home, um, for a year.
9:32
Okay for a year.
9:33
And I was off on, on light duty for 27 months.
9:38
I mean, it was, it was a devastating hit.
9:40
I mean, it, uh, when I got to the hospital, they told, my wife had
9:44
responded, she's also an agent.
9:45
She responded to the scene and then responded to the hospital.
9:48
She was doing all the talking.
9:50
'cause I was in la-la land and I was in, I was on the morphine, I was on the morphine
9:56
train, you know, so, um.
9:59
She came to me, she told me, she said, Hey, uh, you know, the doctor's
10:02
saying that there, that there's only one option, you know, and that they're
10:06
gonna have to amputate your arm.
10:07
And I'm thinking, oh, come on.
10:08
You gotta be kidding me.
10:09
I said, uh, I mean, can't they do something?
10:11
And then I knew, I mean, it was a, it would've been a, it
10:14
would've been a. Huge miracle.
10:16
And they said, well, that's her first option.
10:18
So what's her?
10:19
I said, what's her second option?
10:20
And she went back and asked them and she goes, okay, here's
10:23
the second option, amputation.
10:25
I said, well, that's the first option.
10:28
And I said, so they gotta do better than that, you know?
10:30
So we went back and and forth and they said, Hey, listen.
10:34
We need to check his arteries.
10:36
They said, Hey, if my, my two arteries, my brachial and older artery are
10:41
intact, they said they can save, you know, the, the blood flow has to be
10:47
able to reach the hand and the fingers.
10:49
They said, if the arteries have been ripped apart, forget it.
10:52
We can't save the hand.
10:53
Okay.
10:54
So they, they went in and did, did the, you know, I don't know the, or.
10:58
Scopic, you know, tube thing, you know, and they found that
11:01
the arteries were intact.
11:02
I said, okay, let's a step in the right direction.
11:05
So if they're intact, we might be able to reconstruct his arm.
11:09
Okay.
11:10
So, uh, I had.
11:13
I had three surgeries in two weeks, you know, and the first one
11:16
was just to clean up the wound.
11:17
The second one was to set my arm, like a, like a broken arm.
11:21
And then the third one was to follow up on the, on the setting and to
11:24
make sure that the, there was still blood flow and stuff like that.
11:27
You know, I had, I lost a lot of nerve damage.
11:29
I had a lot of nerve damage to the hand, you know, but it, that's kind of.
11:33
I was told by a neurologist that nerves have a tendency to grow back,
11:37
you know, if, if you give them enough time, you know, and I, I've gotten
11:40
to, to where I can feel, initially I couldn't feel anything with my hand
11:43
because of the nerve damage, you know, but they managed to save my arm and
11:47
I've had a, I have a 50% disability to the left arm, you know, but hey.
11:51
50% is better than no percent.
11:53
You know, you know,
11:54
Craig Floyd: Ed, Ed, I have a last question and that is, um, after all
11:58
this, the recovery took o over a year.
12:01
Um, you're severely injured.
12:03
You almost died.
12:04
You, you thought you were gonna die, and yet you go back to the FBI and, and go
12:09
on to serve 25 years before you retired.
12:12
Why, why go back at that point in time?
12:14
It just doesn't seem like a normal thing to do After going through all that.
12:19
Ed Mireles: You know, that's a tough question to answer, Craig.
12:21
You know, I mean, it's like, I mean, I, I,
12:26
I don't wanna sound like a, like a crazy person, but I loved my job,
12:31
you know, uh, when I was working in Miami, I hated my job in Washington.
12:35
Okay.
12:35
When I was in the FBI in Washington, because it was too white collar, you know?
12:39
I mean, um.
12:42
There's just, other than Congress, there's no crime in Washington.
12:46
You know,
12:49
that's, by the way, in case the audience, I'm taking a shot at Congress, by the
12:52
way, you know, but when I got to Florida, I mean, there was crime everywhere.
12:55
I mean, e even even a blind agent can find a, a, a nut, you know, in
13:00
Miami, Miami at some point in time.
13:01
It was such a great job.
13:04
Such a great, i, I tell people, I say, Hey, I would do this
13:07
job even if you didn't pay me.
13:09
You know, I mean, it was that fantastic.
13:11
I mean, you know, I felt I was contributing, I felt I was
13:14
helping people, you know, helping.
13:16
You know, I, I looked at it this way, you know, if you have a bad guy, if
13:21
you have a bad situation, you know, a, a, a criminal, a complete scumbag, uh,
13:27
who do I want to confront that person?
13:29
My, my mother.
13:30
No, I don't want my mother to meet this guy.
13:32
My sister.
13:34
No.
13:35
Your mother, your sister.
13:36
No.
13:37
The best person to confront a a terrible person like that is me and
13:41
guys like me, guys and women like me.
13:44
You know where, where I was young.
13:46
I was fit, I was well trained, I was highly motivat motivated, and,
13:51
and for 1980 I was well armed.
13:54
Okay.
13:54
Who were you gonna send?
13:55
You know, uh, my mom and my or my sister, or are you gonna send me?
13:58
I was the best person and got women, men and women like me were the best
14:02
people to send to confront these people.
14:05
Okay.
14:05
And I loved my job.
14:07
Okay.
14:07
And I couldn't think, you know, I was really terrified that if they amputated my
14:11
arm, I, I probably would've been retired.
14:14
You know, medically retired and that, that really terrified
14:17
me more than getting shot.
14:19
You think, you know, I'm gonna have to sit home and, and try to do
14:22
something constructive, you know?
14:23
And you know what they say?
14:24
Idle hands or the devil's worked most, but.
14:28
Bill Erfurth: So Ed, you know, and you were talking about Miami and we can both
14:32
relate to Miami during the eighties.
14:33
We both worked.
14:35
In the, in Miami during that time and, you know, going back and
14:38
saying it again, I mean, that was the era of the cocaine cowboys.
14:43
It was from the early eighties, from the Marielle, Marielle, Cuba, uh,
14:50
boats of refugees that came in when Fidel Castro emptied his prisons
14:55
and insane asylums and sent 300 some thousand, 300,000 Mary Alitos to Miami.
15:02
From the early eighties to the, to the early nineties for 10 to
15:07
12 years, Miami was the crime capital of the United States.
15:10
There was no place else in the United States that was as
15:14
wild, ruthless, and dangerous.
15:16
No, and you know, you're your.
15:19
Suspects in your shooting situation.
15:22
Were, were highly armed, but it, it was very common.
15:25
People were running around, bad guys were running around kilos of cocaine.
15:29
I mean, the Miami skyline was essentially built on cocaine.
15:32
Yeah.
15:33
Brickell Avenue had every international bank in the world during the eighties.
15:38
On Brickle in Miami and laundered trillions of dollars of money.
15:44
Yeah, yeah.
15:44
Guys were running around with, with Uzi, Mac tens, Mac elevens,
15:50
the shootouts were beyond belief, but this is what's remembered by
15:56
so many in this situation where unfortunately, two agents were killed.
16:01
You were seriously wounded.
16:02
The other, you know, all of you guys.
16:05
But that finally changed, where now the cops are carrying rifles and the cops went
16:11
to semi-automatic pistols because it was amazing to me listening to your story,
16:17
but amazing to me during the eighties, especially early on there with so many
16:22
crazy people running around with weaponry.
16:25
And we were running around with six shooters, and I thought, how
16:29
in the hell does this even work?
16:31
Ed Mireles: No, I mean, it, we made it work.
16:32
I mean, men and women like you and, and, and Dade.
16:35
I tell you what, I love Dade County cops, man, I'm tell you.
16:38
They, they, they, so many guys and women responded to
16:41
our, our to help us, you know?
16:43
And.
16:43
I, I'm, I'm embarrassed to say that I've forgotten their names.
16:46
You know, I mean, it's been, it's been almost 40 years, you know, but I mean,
16:50
you know, my mind's gotten old, you know, but I'll tell you what I mean.
16:53
You, you, you, you, you've walked the beats, uh, in, in date,
16:56
you know, I mean, you know.
16:58
Guys like you and women, men and women like you and Dade and Miami
17:02
and, and, and Miami Beach and Broward.
17:04
I mean, tho those guys, I mean, they're the ones that have to, uh,
17:07
work the front lines, you know?
17:09
And, um, you know, we all the, we and the bureau, the bureau gets
17:13
a, uh, sometimes we deserve it.
17:15
You know, we get a a, a black eye or punch in the nose, you know, that we don't
17:19
cooperate with local pd. But, you know, there were, there were times when, when
17:23
we were quite, quite honestly, we were.
17:25
Asses, you know, but, uh, by, but the defend my, uh, the bureau
17:30
though, there, there are, and I've seen it from both sides.
17:32
Okay.
17:33
Um, there are some cases that, and I've been on task force say, Hey, you're,
17:39
you're not giving us all the information.
17:41
And I'm thinking, wow.
17:43
You know, this information is coming from a, a, it's a sole source, one
17:48
source in the, the mountains of Pakistan.
17:52
Okay?
17:53
And.
17:54
It has to be held very tightly close to the vest.
17:57
But we need to go hit this house because there's some suspected
18:00
terrorists in this house.
18:02
I can't tell you where this information came from.
18:05
I, all I can tell you is that I need your help to hit this house.
18:08
Okay.
18:09
So, you know, and, and I've seen it from both sides.
18:11
You know, sometimes, you know, we would just keep information from,
18:13
from the locust because we were.
18:15
We were knuckleheads other times, man, you got that sole source
18:19
on in the mountain in Pakistan.
18:21
Okay.
18:22
That was, that was somehow or another, the US intelligence picked
18:25
up the, the information somehow.
18:27
And, you know, and gave it to the bureau, and the bureau was acting on it.
18:31
So we, we can't tell, uh, some poor sheriff in, in Dade County or, or, or
18:36
Omaha, Nebraska, Hey, where it came from, you know, but we, we just need to
18:39
act on it, you know, so, so, you know.
18:41
Yeah.
18:42
Um, I mean, it, it cuts both ways, but I'll tell you what though.
18:44
Dade, you know, officers like that are, are, are, are.
18:48
I mean, you guys, you guys are the, are the, the, the real
18:51
shield, you know, between, uh, the evil and, and, and the public.
18:55
But one more thing before I, before we, you know, I don't, I don't wanna,
18:59
I don't wanna let this conversation go, um, without mentioning this specifically,
19:07
I showed up.
19:09
Okay.
19:09
I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm just one of eight guys that showed up.
19:13
Okay.
19:13
I just did what I had to do.
19:15
Okay.
19:16
The real heroes in, in this incident are Ben Grogan and Jerry Dove.
19:21
Okay.
19:22
They made the ultimate sacrifice.
19:25
Okay.
19:26
They, and, and I was there with them.
19:28
Okay.
19:30
And I don't wanna sound cliche-ish, but, but, but I'll say it anyway.
19:34
They put their toes on a line in, in, in the sand.
19:38
Okay.
19:39
And they never stepped back.
19:41
Okay.
19:41
And they took withering gunfire, like I said, 140 shots.
19:46
Well, the estimated 140 shots were fired.
19:50
They never stepped back.
19:51
And, and, uh, they were both wounded once before they were
19:54
subsequently shot and killed.
19:56
But they never, they never stepped back, you know, and I tell people, I say,
19:59
Hey, they were at the tip of the spear.
20:02
Uh, and I don't have a diagram to show the audience, but they were facing
20:06
the subjects this way, and I was off.
20:09
So they're left behind the car and I managed to come around to the left.
20:14
I flanked the bad guys and eventually I came back up this way, they
20:20
gave me time to figure out what I was doing, regroup, formulate a
20:26
plan, and then execute that plan.
20:28
Unfortunately, it was not.
20:30
With enough time to be able to help and save Ben and Jerry.
20:34
So those two guys are my heroes.
20:37
Okay.
20:37
Uh, they're the ones that made, made the ultimate sacrifice.
20:41
I, I just showed up so.
20:44
Craig Floyd: Well, you were quite the hero there, ed.
20:46
Yeah.
20:47
I don't want you to take.
20:48
Dennis Collins: Yeah.
20:49
Craig Floyd: Too little of the credit.
20:50
But, you know, let's, let's just say the day you and I dedicated the National
20:54
Law Enforcement Officers Memorial, uh, Ben Grogan and Jerry Dove had their
20:59
names inscribed on that memorial, and they're gonna be remembered forever more.
21:04
We will never forget their sacrifice and we'll be talking about them
21:07
and their heroics and their service for, uh, generations to come, thanks
21:13
to that memorial and yeah, and the telling the story here today.
21:17
Certainly help.
21:18
And in closing, let me just, uh, remind people that, uh, there is a
21:21
book out there that describes this entire incident, goes into a lot
21:25
more of the detail and the heroics.
21:27
It's called FBI, Miami Firefight, written by Ed Mireles.
21:32
And I encourage people to go out and get that book and, and read the entire story.
21:37
Uh, Dennis, I know you're scolding as we've probably gone over our time.
21:41
What a story, what a, how do you.
21:43
Dennis Collins: How do you, how do you, how do you, uh, call an end to this story?
21:46
I mean, this, I mean, we could go on for hours, Ed, and, uh.
21:50
Ed Mireles: Yeah, absolutely.
21:51
Dennis Collins: Thank you for your, your, your, you know, for doing this
21:54
over again because you know what, it's important, and I heard, I thought I knew
21:59
a lot about this story since I kind of.
22:01
Lived there and was in the news media and so forth.
22:04
You said things today that I'd never heard before, and so there's always something.
22:09
And you know, particularly what I enjoyed hearing from you because you know, this is
22:14
so important in anything you do in life, I don't care what it is, it's your mindset
22:20
and you spoke to your mindset of survival.
22:23
This, I, I love your mantra.
22:25
This is survivable.
22:27
This is survivable.
22:29
That is a lesson for all of us.
22:31
Mm-hmm.
22:32
If you could survive what happened to you?
22:37
We can survive the little things, relatively small things that happen to us.
22:42
Mm-hmm.
22:42
So I take that lesson from your heroic behavior.
22:46
This is survivable.
22:47
Thank you for that.
22:48
Thank you for planning that, that that is an excellent
22:51
mantra that we should all use.
22:53
And in your case, it probably saved your life.
22:57
Ed Mireles: Absolutely.
22:59
And thank you gentlemen for having me as a guest.
