SYNOPSIS:
  
Veteran Irvington New Jersey Police Sergeant Ken Hogan never expected the suspect he stopped on a cold, snowy morning in January of 1994 to be armed and ready to end his life. The suspect had a mission not only to kill Hogan but also to kill himself.
  
Sergeant Hogan notified Police Communications that he was stopping the suspect and seconds later he radioed Communications twice “I’ve been shot”. Backup Officers quickly responded to this “Officer Down” call but when they arrived on scene the ambush was all over.
  
Sgt. Hogan was ambushed inside his police car as the suspect fired more than 19 bullets at Hogan from a semi-automatic weapon. Sgt. Hogan never had the chance to unholster his weapon. Hogan was bleeding profusely suffering with four bullets in his body, with the last one lodging his skull. He knew he was in a bad place with no where to hide so he relied on his own survival plan to live, a plan he honed his entire career.
  
The suspect completed only part of his mission—he died at his own hand a few blocks from the ambush.
  
Sgt. Ken Hogan lived and tells his courageous story in A CALL FOR VALOR, an independent film production by Blue Force Films, D.R. Hernandez, Director & Producer.
