In the second episode of Officer.com's six-episode series, retired police Lt. Frank Borelli and Editor Paul Peluso look back at the 1966 attack committed by Charles Whitman at the University of Texas Tower. Often referred to simply as the Texas Tower shooting, it was one of the incidents that prompted the creation of SWAT teams in our country and changed response protocols for patrol officers.
