The news reported that the officer was called to the MRI place by employees as one of them was in there and would not let anyone else in. When the first officer got there the guy got hold of his service weapon and shot him 3 times with it...this was on the street. A second officer came along and the shooter took some shots at him, the second officer took him down with a couple of shots. End of firefight. The dead officer was an 18 year veteran of the force with children. They have not named and will not the 2nd officer. I understand he was crushed by this whole thing. The whole community is devastated. We prayed for this at Bible study last night, which is near where it all happened.
The shooter was a long time employee of the facility. Crazy.
I’m so sorry Ti - I know as a paramedic you probably know most of the police officers in town -
