“I think we’re going to find that this was a very unusual family.”

Ya think?

[Texas Eagle]

... a family from Idaho who had apparently been living in a vehicle in the store's parking lot ...

They do that in other cities, too???

It's nice to know our local Wally World is not the only homeless camp.

The reporter is still drooling from being able to use the word ‘Christian’ in the story.

....police responded to a report that a female Wal-Mart employee was assaulted by multiple suspects. Police said the officers were immediately attacked by the suspects in the parking lot and that during the fracas, 21-year-old Enoch Gaver was shot and killed, while his brother David Gaver, 28, was shot in the abdomen....Those arrested on charges including aggravated assault and attempted homicide were Peter Gaver, 55, and Ruth Gaver, 52, and their children Nathan Gaver, 27, Jeremiah Gaver, 29, and David Gaver, as well as a juvenile whose identity was not released....several of the Gavers were sidewalk musicians who perform in a Christian band called Matthew 24 Now....a Facebook page apparently set up by the band in June 2013 but not updated since last December..."we have been busking on the streets of Boise Idaho for the last 3 years"

They look like a charming vagabond family, don't they? They've been living out of a van for five years.

White, protestant Christian, independent business owners? And it didn’t have anything to do with a big sale on flat screen tv’s.

They could have been acting out Matthew 24.

“...State police spokesman Bart Graves said three shots were fired during the brawl, but that there had been a struggle for one of the officers’ guns and it was not clear who fired....”
*****************************************************************************************************

There is definitely something missing from this story. Three shots were fired with one member of the family being killed and other member being wounded in the abdomen. “not clear who fired”? I don’t believe that for one second. And I wouldn’t be surprised if the injured cop wasn’t wounded by “friendly fire”, possibly even by himself/herself. Anyhow, I’m waiting for all the facts to come out on this strange case. I’d suggest others also reserve judgement and not automatically assume the family is wholly responsible for this incident.
