Southport Officer Shot

[halfmileharry]

Doh! Bad enough to shoot yourself but to hit another person. News said he just stood up out of his chair and it just went off. I didn't know guns just go off by themselves

I'd much rather shoot someone else than shoot myself. Duh!

You should try reading INGO.

Have I told you about the 870 at Shootrite?

my wife took the kids downtown along the procession route to pay their respects today while I was working. She told me that she was downtown near mass ave, and saw some jackass walk out into the street and start yelling "f*** the police, f*** all of them" along with other similar things. In a way, I'm glad I wasn't there because I would have had a hard time not saying something.

I hear ya. And I'd bet you lunch that if some jackwagon was trying to kick down his door, he'd be BEGGING those same cops to come to his aid.

There is a mentally disturbed a guy who has a hobby of driving around the metro area taunting first responders. Very well could've been him.

Down behind cover doing one handed drills. I am doing left side. Weapon is Remington 870 Scattergun Tech "FBI Model". I roll in one round #00 buckshot, Remington, with left hand while right hand is behind me. Weapon on safe, I close the action, the weapon discharges.

Is this where we are to insert "allegedly"?(Shoulda been the Border Patrol model, everything would be good in the universe then.)

No need to insert.

OOoooooooo that would end ugly for him if some folks I know that went to pay respects were in the area.

WISH, TV Indy, that a "holster Malfunction", was to "blame", for the

shooting of the Deputy, at the Funeral .....

The holster didn't malfunction from what I've heard. Something was able to get into the holster because the officers were packed in like sardines and when one officer stood up, whatever was in the holster was able to pull the trigger.

They were actually stuck together when they stood up.

I've seen hood dogs like that.

IMPD releases new photo of suspect accused of shooting Southport officer - Local News - 13 WTHR Indianapolis

So here's the pic.

How in the name of all that's good in the world did this dude not get his brain blown out?

Is this exhibit A in the argument to bring back the .45? Or more deployment of rifles? I don't know. Seems like the aiming was "good enough."

The thing on his nose? Doesn't look like a gunshot wound, at least not on my screen. Probably injury sustained in the crash.

Well, that, and it looks like a crease that went into his cheek but check out the big honking round scab on the side of his neck by his spine! (They eye, and whatever is on the side of his face are probably related to the crash.) That round wound on the bridge of his nose seems too close to perfect to be related to the crash, to me, but it could be.

Any sourcing on how many of his wounds were bullet holes? I gotta believe at least 1 or 2.
