Just saw an article that a C.O.P.S sound technician was killed in a police shoot out in Omaha with a perp with a pellet pistol. Tech was wearing body armor, but was still somehow shot by the cop. How bad of timing is this???? :(

Body armor does not guarantee you will survive.
I have not seen or heard as yet if gunshot missed the armor or penetrated.

It is bad situation all around, however I am surprised that this has not occurred before.

Camera person or technician getting caught between shooters and cops.

I’m surprised this doesn’t happen more often and do not blame the police. These camera operators are as brave as any journalist in a war zone. RIP Bryce Dion.
