An officer shot at 36th and Sherman.

[BE Mike]

Glad the officer came out on top. Apparently he has determination and good training. Prayers for he and his family.

My guess is this dude had some other issues that the police would want to discuss with him so he wanted to get away. Wasn't just an expired license.

 

[tbhausen]

Just heard on the news that the officer is in good condition with GSW to lower arm.

 

[lrahm]

Sounds like he fought on.

Just because you are shot (not trying to be sarcastic), doesn't mean you will die. Teach everyone not to give up and to fight on. I would just as soon take the SOB with me.

 

[Birds Away]

Prayers for the Officer's speedy recovery and a hearty well done also.

The driver wasn't the one that was shot and killed. The decedent was a paroleesitting in the back seat.

Prayers for Officer Zotz, Thank you for your 12 years of service, and may you have many more soon!

oh, didn't see that in the story, thanks for the update. I thought it said a passenger wasn't injured.

Hopefully the wound doesn't limit usage of his likely dominant hand.

Glad there was a good shoot to hear about. Hope the officer has a speedy recovery and few long-term issues.

I was having biscuits and gravy at Peppy's grill on 10th St. near Sherman with a friend when this news came on the tv. Glad to hear the good guy got 'em.

B&G in the swamp...mmmmm mmmm! did you see any tranny prostitutes walk past while you were in there?

Glad the officer came out on top. Hope he has a speedy recovery.

On a side note, the suspect that was killed was arrested earlier this week for possession of cocaine and resisting law enforcement. He has had 11 convictions in 7 years and was out on parole or bond.

Thanks for that one, Frank. We were talking about this at work and someone asked if anyone knew whether the stop was initiated due to the suspended or not. I wasn't sure.

As senseless as this sounds I am not surprised at the actions taken by those thugs. They lack all sense of morality, have zero honer and lack any respect for human life. Total **** stains on society.

The stools were all filled by some "different" looking "girls" with "moustaches" and there may or may not have been someone going from table to table asking for prophylactics....

The Swamp... is that what you guys call that place? I've never heard that before. It's fitting.

 

[VUPDblue]

lol, you have never heard it called the swamp? thats an age old moniker for the area from washington to brookside park and from the split to sherman

Wait what?!? You mean she was a tranny??!?!?


...er what I meant to say was "no".

We have other names for that area and none as nice as the swamp. I have serviced many of the local businesses in the area for a long time. HVAC and refr.
You meet the most interesting folks in there. In the daytime. At night, well, you know.
I will never ever go into "The Swamp" unarmed and with good reason from personal experience. If we get an after dark service call no one else will take it so I go.
Folks really are scared of the area.

I've only lived on the Eastside for 3 going on 4 years now and have never heard that.
