A law enforcement official says three people have been arrested and two of them have been charged with capital murder in the fatal shootings of two Mississippi police officers during a weekend traffic stop in Hattiesburg.

Warren Strain, a spokesman for the Mississippi Department of Public Safety, tells The Associated Press that 29-year-old Marvin Banks and 22-year-old Joanie Calloway have each been charged with two counts of capital murder, and Banks' 26-year-old brother, Curtis Banks, has been charged with two counts of accessory after the fact of capital murder.

Strain also says Marvin Banks also faced other charges. He says officers arrested the three Hattiesburg residents at different locations overnight without resistance following Saturday night's fatal shooting.It wasn't immediately known if those arrested had lawyers.

Witness, Tamika Mills heard one of the officers say, 'Am I dying? I know I'm dying. Just hand me my walkie-talkie.'

Both officers were transported from the scene of the shooting to Forrest General Hospital and the county coroner confirmed their deaths.

Their bodies are being sent to Jackson, which is about 90 miles away, for an autopsy

Obama will likely call them in prison and congratulate boys that look like his son for going up against those cops.

I don’t know - one of the cops was a Negro. It will take a bit of spin.

Marvin Banks ... Joanie Calloway ... Curtis Banks

It is unfortunate that their mothers didn’t label them as an ‘urban’ mother would have. Had to look at the pictures.

Do you men that these perps are of the Negroid persuasion? If they go to prison, Valerie Jarrett (Obozo’s boss) will pardon them in less than two years.

The President has no authority to pardon anyone other than Federal criminals.

From CNN: After the shooting, the suspects stole a police vehicle, which they used to flee. It was later found abandoned.... Police also took a woman into custody who was with the suspects at the time of the shooting.... They have not said whether she was involved.

CNN and ABC have it now. But as usual, the Daily Mail has the best photos.

Seems to be some confusion about which of the three are charged with what.

The US based media only go after stories with that which fits this administration’s agenda of racial oppression.

I’ve found that, in general, UK media is more willing to find out all sides of a story and report the facts much more than US outlets.

The CNN source also states that the two male perps have records.
