What the heck?

On Wednesday, Baltimore County Police released surveillance video from a bizarre shootout on June 7, 2017, between police and 35-year-old Blaine Robert Erb that began, of all places, on a city bus!

Police responded to the report of an armed robbery in progress. When arriving at the scene police learned the suspect fled onto the No 10 Maryland Transit Administration bus.

When an officer stopped the bus near Logan Village Shopping Center the suspect opened fire on police.

Police said four officers returned fire and Erb was killed. One officer and a bystander were wounded.

The suspect was found in possession of two .40-caliber handguns as well as spare magazines and ammunition. The suspect has a lengthy criminal history and is prohibited from possessing firearms. Wait, a criminal didn’t follow gun laws?! Shocker.

Check out this crazy video:

BANGLIST is a great keyword to add for stories like this one.

Crazy criminal with muslim looking beard and dress. Shooting everywhere with two pistols. Police throw down a shotgun after missing with every shot. No police rifles, sad. Get lucky with pistol shots,

Too many shot fired. Cops shoulda been more accurate.

That guy is in big trouble. He plainly has a magazine greater than the MD law allows (10 rounds). Worst of all he’s occupying the ‘no standing’ area of the bus during the shootout.

If he’s willing to answer a call to Islam he just as soon save us the headache and answer a call from a craigslist cannibal.

Adrenaline and fear make people do some weird things.

Not sure I understand emptying a shotgun with wild shots and then tossing it on the ground in favor of a service pistol. At least she took action, though. Everyone else seemed to be waiting for some kind of order.

Also not sure about shooting blindly, with a pistol in either hand out the side door of a bus. If you want to hit something, shoot out a bus window between yourself and your target, and take productive shots.

If the guy wanted to get away, he should have ran out the side door much sooner, before the additional police arrived, and kept going. Maybe his purpose was suicide by cop, or trying to stick around and take out as many cops as possible.

Surprised at the ratio of female to male cops on the scene.

Interesting video, though. I’m sure it will be used for training purposes for years to come.

"...Muslim..."


Judging from his physique in the shootout video, he truly did enjoy sharing his greetings to the snackbar very often.

Agree on all points. This video will be dissected and examined for years.

Did the police officer not have any extra shotgun shells to reload with? And no one else had an effective firearm. I think their real purpose is generating revenue via traffic tickets. Adequate guns would be an unnecessary expense there.

Would like to hear your opinion if you watch it.

Maybe start the bus, jam the gas pedal to the metal, and either go for the ride, or quickly slide out the door before it picks up speed.

The cop with the shotgun, the second tape looks like it was superimposed. In the first tape the front window blows out with a few rounds, in the second tape the cop shoots the shotgun to the window.

I believe it was the same rounds, so he did almost get the perp.

Those Cops didn’t impress me.

One had a knife ready to cut the wounded Cop’s pants open and hesitated and then someone asks if anyone had any scissors. Most people would not hesitate and just cut the damned pants open.

These people are typical government workers. They can’t get anything done and they get paid twice what they would get paid in the private sector. I could have responded better than any of these police officers, sad.

I thought Baltimore was a gun-free zone.

I guess the criminal didn’t follow the laws the disarmed law-abiding people do. Whodathunkit?
