HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP)-
The two pbotographa, taken
1% yean apart, are nearly
identical.
One shown a burly, gray-
haired Mate police major
talking With a suspected
killer, bis arm firmly around
the man’s shoulders In the
second photo, the trooper is
holding the suspect's hand.
They look almost like poses
of a loving father and son. But
beyond the images were a
dead wife, her fetus ripped
from her womb, a murdered
mother, a cop shot in the head.
In both instances, just
before the shutter clicked,
Maj. Roy Titler had per-
suaded the armed man to
surrender, disarming him
religious man. I don’t go to
church."
Standing with empty hands,
in houses where people
already lay dead, how dose
had he come to being killed
himself?
“Not dree at all,” Titter
replied. *T watch the person,
talk to him, and I can tell you
then when there’s danger, that
it’s bad and I’d better change
my tactics. But I can’t tell you
objectively what exactly that
danger lopka like
“At one point, I had four
men with guns, two shotguns
and two handguns, pointed at
him (Brady) 10 feet away. If I
had wanted him dead, all I
would have had to say was
‘Take him out’ But we don’t

with only words. Both men
remain in custody today,
awaiting judge’s dedstens re
to whether they are legally
competent to stand trial.
“You have to be afraid
because if you’re not, you’re
no good, you must be a little
mental yourself,” the com-
mander said in an interview.
“You know that If you do
something wrong, either he’s
dead or your wife’s a widow.”
When Titler walked away
from the second Incident on
Jan. 8, he was called the
“Bibte^uoting cop.” He bad
used the words of the 23rd
Psalm to calm shotgun-toting
David Brady of
Elisabethtown.
Yet, he said, “I’m not a

cop disarms

nearby.
When Titter arrived at the
scene in Pottstown, troopers
had. already begun
negotiations with Richard
Greist Inside the house,
Greist’s wife and her fetus
were dead, and his 5-year-old
daughter and his mother had
been stabbed, the girl
wounded in the eye.
Grabbing a bulletproof vest,
Titter and two other troopers
walked in the front door and
faced Greist in the Uving
room. “I told him to lie down
on the floor, and all be said
was, ‘Don’t let them hurt
me,’” Titler said.
“He grabbed me by the arm
and I told him, ‘If they hurt
you, they’ll have to hurt me
Wednesday February 27, UN
first.”
The photograph taken of
Titler ushering suspected
murderer Greist out of the
bouse won a Pulitzer Prise.
"He's a major, and he had
no damn business doing what
he did" at Elizabethtown, one
state police official said, more
in admiration than with
criticism. “He’s supposed to
provide leadership, but
sometimes he takes it too
far.”
Titler, a father of four,
explained it this way:
“I don’t enjoy someone
getting shot, but I do enjoy the
high of a situation like that. I
don’t know whether that’s
good or bad."
CsuttanedoupageSA
dothat.”
After Brady surrendered,
“A little girt walked up to me
and said, ’Mr. Titter, you’re
my hero,*” Titter said. “But
I’m not a hero. A lot of police
handle things like this.’’
After 12 years of facing
down armed persons, Titter
said he’s “more caring for
people, more mellow. And
you re more coniiaeni.

hostage situations, although
he has attended seminars on
the subject.
