Lakemore- Police Chief Kenneth Ray said he never would have believed it if he hadn't seen it: A murder suspect was shot in the head by police, and the bullet bounced off the man's skull.

"We've dealt with him before," said Ray. "He has some mental issues and he's such a big guy - 6-feet-2-inches tall and 280 pounds - and such a strong guy, that when police fired the beanbag at him, it did not even faze him. That's when the shot was fired."

Rubber bullet?????

[Farmer Dean]

WTF.They couldn’t subdue him with a beanbag round so they go for a HEADSHOT?

[dragnet2]

We've dealt with him before," said Ray. "He has some mental issues

They've dealt with this dangerous mental case before? Dangerous enough for the police to shoot him?

Then they release him back on the streets?

Good work.

I don't have a problem with that.

Brandi Tice, 28, was found dead in the first-floor living room when local police and the Metro SWAT unit stormed the home. Officers from the tiny community south of Akron had come to the house about 3:30 p.m. after receiving reports of a domestic disturbance.

He had killed his wife then fought off the police for 7 hours. Maybe you should read the whole article before assuming he police are wrong.

Of course Im gonna hearr from the goobs who think tthe cops are wrong no mater what.

Read more carefully, he was reaching for the rifle he killed his wife with.

When Tice reached toward his rifle, police fired a shot at his head, Ray said.

Too much powder.

My bad,I didn’t read the whole article,just the excerpt.

[Parley Baer]

That is why I have some AP.

It’s apparently “evil gestapo police thread day”.

There are bad cops out there but that doesn’t make all cops bad.

[GSP.FAN]

Not enough power.

[waterhill]

I could have taken him out with a .22 behind the ear.

Mastoid bone. Small but thin...

That hardheaded son of a gun!

My Uncle was PD in Kansas. He loaded his own. He said,
he put half the powder in the first round to break the windshield.
And a full load in the second round to go through the perp.
Then, if needed, another half load to slow the perp down;
for the head shot.

what caliber? 357 sig? bullet type? anybody know?
Bet whatever sales rep is supplying this P.D. with ammo is going to get a phone call “first thing” Monday morning.

[driftdiver]

I highly doubt it was a 357. Probably a 38 or 9mm.

"He has some mental issues..."

Um, like his head is solid bone all the way through?

[Viking2002]

I like how your uncle thought. I'll have to try that with my Colt, just for kicks and giggles. Home defense purposes, ya know.
