An observation:
Many times in police officer shootings, negligence or poor officer safety is partially responsible. That will not be the case here. Gang Suppression officers are very aware of their surroundings and understand officer safety. Especially in this area, the highest activity area in San Diego.
It doesn’t sound like an ambush if it was a traffic stop, but you never know. This is very near a couple of streets I would never drive down without my weapon in my hand.
Sad,
Hoped San Diego would miss this stuff.
