One police officer was struck in the lower leg, while the other suffered a grazing wound on his lower leg. Both have been released from hospital.

When the officers managed to confront the suspect in a nearby parking lot, they “were on each side of the [him], facing each other,” according to an Elk Grove Police Department statement.

They both fired at the man – hitting him and each other – after the suspect “moved toward the second officer with his hands near his midsection area”.

The suspect, identified only as a 41-year-old man from Sacramento, is still in hospital received treatment for gunshot wounds.

Elk Grove Police Department said he faced multiple charges upon his release, including resisting arrest and unlawful possession of a firearm.

Reminds me of what I called our local Big Island PD after they recently chased some suspect all over. Blazed away at him at least twice, never hit him.

Luckily no uninvolved were downrange while these idiots were spraying and praying. Guy eventually gave himself up, lucky they did not execute him for making them a laughingstock.

I was kind of thinking along the same lines.

Excellent movie and one of the very few where Sean Beans character doesn’t die.

Thanks a lot for nothing. Now I can’t get it out of my head. What’s worse is when I get home, I no longer have a Strat with which to play it. Les Pauls and a Tele are no substitute. Damn.
