synopsis
While pursuing a robbery suspect, Officer Pete Malloy (Martin Milner) is seriously injured in a car accident. His partner Jim Reed (Kent McCord) rushes to Malloy's assistance, but Pete is nowhere to be found: he has disappeared somewhere in the hills of Griffith Park. The rest of the episode details an APB search for the wounded officer, with virtually every law-enforcement officer in the vicinity participating. "The Search" is regarded as one of Adam-12's best-ever entries, an enduring audience favorite.
