Using military-grade weapons and gear, two bank robbers turned the streets of North Hollywood, California into a war zone. For nearly 45 minutes, Los Angeles police faced one of the most violent and prolonged gun battles they had ever experienced. The police may have had them greatly outnumbered, but the gunmen had the police completely outmatched. As if taken right from a Hollywood movie, the drama was captured live on camera and quickly had a nation glued to the TV. This was reality television on a whole new level and would go on to forever change the way law enforcement operates in the US.  Find more information about this episode: www.beyondbizarretruecrime.com   Follow us: www.facebook.com/beyondbizarretruecrime/  twitter.com/BeyondBizarreTC Instagram @beyondbizarretc   Contact us: [email protected]
