Officers wanted to question them about the alleged assault of a Walmart employee who was going into the store bathroom. The police were accompanied by another Walmart employee.

...

Several times on the video the group appears to surrender, but starts fighting again. The melee goes for several minutes until backup officers arrive and make arrests.

Police charged four members of the family with assaulting an officer and resisting arrest. Two minors were also taken into custody and are being held at a juvenile detention facility.

More details needed. It sounds like a typical knee-jerk headline they would use to lam their favorite target -Christians, however most Christians I know wouldn’t have let something escalate into that.

Just ignore the word “Christian” in the subject. It sounds like someone copped an attitude with the cops, and the rest of the mayhem ensued. It doesn’t matter who you are, if a police officer asks to talk to you, the reasonable thing to do is cooperate and talk. Especially if you have nothing to hide.

Can’t give the race but can describe the religion?

Christian in the headline is not needed. How about stupid family gets into brawl. I know many stupid families that are Christians. Christians are no different then everyone else when it comes to doing dumb things sometimes.

Enoch Gaver, 21, was killed in the fight in the town of Cottonwood, and suspect David Gaver, 28, was shot in the stomach and taken into custody. Police Sergeant Jeremy Daniels was hit in the leg by a bullet fired during the melee.

Well, boys and girls, If the police shoot someone during an interaction with them where they are trying to arrest and accuse you of a crime, YOU are likely to be the one charged with murder.

Charge the cop?

That would be silly!

KTLA doesn't report who is suspected of pulling the trigger, but we do know cops always carry guns always. Musicians might or might not. Nor did KTLA bother to report how Enoch died, Was he shot? Was it a choke hold? Did he walk with God and was no more?

If only. I would love to see Muslim did such and such so I don’t have to go sifting through the article looking for something I already know.

"New details on Gaver family; living in parking lot, playing music for tips"

Somehow, it just doesn't sound like they belong to a mainstream Christian denomination.

Sigh. If a muslim rammed a car full of gasoline into a building, do you think they’d put his religion in the headline?

seems to me the headline should say something about a family member being shot to death and a cop being shot. What does “Christian Family Band” have to do with anything here? Stupid headline.

They need to record a cover of ‘I Fought the Law’. In Arizona, they may actually get a chance to break rocks in the hot sun.

Must be an infectious virus or something. First the Palin family in Alaska, the the Clintons in the not-so-white-house, then Hairy Reed in his exercise bathroom. Now it’s rebel rousers (Christian) in a parking lot. Time marches on for the MFM

Well, putting a cop in a headlock is probably not going to have a happy ending. The place to argue Constitutional law isn’t a parking lot or a street corner with a dude loaded up on steroids.

Doesn’t say Enoch was shot. I’d lay even money the cop was shot by one of his fellows.
