UPDATED: Seaside police shoot an off-duty federal police officer early Friday

A 48-year-year old off-duty black federal police officer is still alive after being shot by Seaside Police officers early Friday morning.

Just before 1:30am, officers responded to a call reporting a loud, drunk woman at a house in the 1100 block of Amador Avenue, according to a statement by the Seaside Police Department. Officers gave her a courtesy ride back to her house in the 1200 block of Palm Avenue.

As officers were helping the woman to her door, her husband stepped outside with a gun and officers shot at him. He is Eric Glazier, a federal police lieutenant since 1997 at Naval Support Activity Monterey, the base where Naval Postgraduate School is located.

Seaside police asked District Attorney Dean Flippo to investigate the shooting, as is the SSPD's custom in officer-involved shootings. Flippo agreed, and his investigators arrived on the scene at about 2:30am.

Flippo spoke with members of the media Friday afternoon, but few details are being released at this time.

"He displayed a gun," Flippo said. Investigators aren't sure yet whether the weapon was government-issued or not. They're also not sure whether the man fired his gun, or even pointed it at his wife or the responding Seaside cops.

I searched 1969 Pontiac Lemans and the photo looks pretty close. That one’s pretty rusty.

I believe it's a '68.

Apparently terrorists have also been disguising themselves as Federal Police as well.

They're awful sneaky, them terrorists...

If you’re an officer in uniform, and those folks point their weapons at you as in these photos, what do you do?

No matter how “Joe Blow” citizen those folks look, they are a very real serious threat if they present like this.

Anyone thinking they wouldn’t react to this threat if these folks refused to lower their weapons, is kidding themselves.

I had a "Federal Police" officer for a tenant for couple of years. He thought he was hot stuff, but presented more like a mall security guard. Something happened where he lost his clearance, then his job... then skipped out of the apartment in the dead of night with his fat wife and poor baby.

They left a whole closet full of dirty diapers, a nasty bed with pizza, used condoms, beer cans and all sorts of things under the mattress.

Apparently "Federal Police Officer" isn't as snazzy as it sounds.

How old is that Pontiac in front of the house?I'd guess it's 1971 or earlier based on the bumpers, but I'm not an expert on Pontiacs. I do admire many GTOs and the Firebird TransAm.

Pontiac built a mean muscle car back in the day, but so did Chevy, Dodge, Plymouth, Buick, Olds and Ford.

The Pontiac 455ci HD was a hell of a motor. Probably the best big motor that GM made aside from the Chevy 454.

It is to cause emotions to rise. To play on a segment of reader’s emotions would have been a better term.

I don’t know if they’d even get the command to lower if the cop was exposed.
If he was behind concealment, maybe, but if you raise a weapon like that at a cop, or anyone at close range, you better be ready to shoot or be shot.

This guy may have had a attitude thinking himself to be the top dog on scene.

Well, it WAS his house, so why should he not be top dog?

Oh, I recognize your screen name, your reply makes sense.

Yup. At one home, I have a Dropcam positioned to see whose outside before I even get near the front door. At the other, I have a 2nd floor window that lets me see who is at the door.

If I don’t recognize the person or see someone such as a delivery man, I simply arm up and stay inside away from the door.

I knew a guy in school with a ‘70 GTO. That was a bad ride.
Then I was driving a VW Beetle, so just about anything else was fast.
Wife had a ‘78 Bonneville with one of those big 400+ hypo engines, Positrac, we raced from one gas station to another.

Police gun down another cop and we’re talking cars ...

Yes, that’s true.

People don’t seem to realize officers are authorized to carry weapons. If confronted with a weapon, they are going to defend themselves. It’s that simple.

“What is a “federal police officer”?”

Something that should not exist.

I had a 1968 Pontiac Catalina 428-cid/375-hp 4-Barrel V-8 in high school. When it was new, it was a great engine. But my Dad screwed up the engine and gave me the car when it was about 10 years old. It had bad valves that would ping like crazy.

I believe the car in the picture is a '68 Grand Prix.
