Cops were hunting for a robbery suspect Monday after one of his alleged accomplices was fatally shot by a cop whom she was trying to run over at a strip mall in New Jersey, authorities said.
Police in Deptford Township responded to a report of a shoplifting in progress at a Marshall’s department store at 1800 Clements Bridge Road at about 3:40 p.m. Saturday and found three suspects who fled the store with a “substantial amount of unpaid merchandise,” according to a statement by Bernie Weisenfeld, a spokesman for the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office.
One of the suspects, Raoul Gadson, 43, of Philadelphia, was struggling with security guards when responding cops approached him. He then fled on foot while his two female alleged accomplices — LaShanda Anderson, 36, and Chanel Barnes, 27, both of Philadelphia — ran toward a rented Nissan Armada, Weisenfeld said.
Officers then told Anderson, who was behind the wheel, to stop, but she instead accelerated toward them and struck a patrol captain with an open driver’s door. Anderson then tried to “deliberately run over” a sergeant, who fired three shots into the Nissan, striking Anderson twice.

I hope the surviving criminals will be charged with murder. Lock them up forever.
LaShanda?
Are you kidding me? Is this some sort of parody?
... who fired three shots into the Nissan, striking Anderson twice.
LaShanda la Shouldn’ta....................
Truly outstanding writing.
Don’t need pictures to know.
“Cops were hunting for a robbery suspect Monday after one of his alleged accomplices was fatally shot by a cop whom she was trying to run over....”
I had to go to the story to see why the cop was trying to run over the suspect before she shot her.
“Officers then told Anderson, who was behind the wheel, to stop, but she instead accelerated toward them and struck a patrol captain with an open driver’s door. Anderson then tried to “deliberately run over” a sergeant, who fired three shots into the Nissan, striking Anderson twice.”
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and suggest that these are not British or French nationals.
Never a Judy or a Cindy or a Mary.
Not LaShonda!!! She was going back to school.
Hmmmm ...That looks like "assault with a deadly weapon".
Betcha you can get a whole lot of good stuff out of there under a burqua.
a statement, Gloucester County prosecutors said the three suspects had left the store with “with a substantial amount of unpaid merchandise.”
All three suspects have long criminal records and a pattern of arrests for shoplifting. In October, the Delaware State Police put out a public message identifying Anderson as part of a ring that had been stealing items from Marshalls stores in Wilmington and Newark. Gadson and Barnes were not identified in that October alert.
Gloucester County authorities are investigating an officer-involved shooting Saturday at a strip mall in Deptford following an alleged shoplifting. One person was killed while allegedly trying to flee, a spokesman said Sunday.
Anderson had been arrested more than 15 times over the last 18 years, repeatedly for shoplifting, but also for a series of far more serious offenses, including attempted murder.
He was trying to save ammo. Department is watching costs, doncha know,
Barnes has been arrested seven times for shoplifting in incidents that typically resulted in a probationary sentence. Her records include two convictions for fleeing police. Early last year, she was charged with shoplifting and giving false identification to police. She was jailed for at least six months. The Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office is investigating the robbery and shooting. Authorities ask that anyone with information call the office at 856-384-5500.
Gadson has been arrested numerous times since turning 18 on charges including theft and drug dealing. He was repeatedly jailed as a result. His most recent case was last fall when he was convicted of shoplifting and drug offenses in Bethlehem and ordered to serve seven weeks to 23 months in jail.
Hmmmm - black unemployment at an all-time low, not enough workers to fill all the jobs that are open - and yet still scoring our wants by heisting from department stores - old habits die hard......
Well, the bet I lost earlier on the Jacksonville attempted robbery, I would have made up in spades on this incident. Its not racism, its just odds and reality...
