Salt Lake County Sheriff Rosie Rivera has never seen anything like it before in her career. On Monday, a 4-year-old boy tried to shoot two Unified police officers who were taking his father into custody, allegedly because the father had told him to. Fortunately, an officer who saw the gun not only was able to push the barrel away from the direction of officers just as the gun was fired, but also recognized that the person holding it was a child and did not return fire.

Well, there’s something to be said of a child who obeys his parents. 😁

Need I look? I suppose the really amazing part is the little four year old actually had a father around.

Or at least he did.

OK so I read the article. The father is a complete moron. This whole incident started because McDonald’s got his drive up order wrong so he pulled a gun and went ape on them.

They said please pull over to the side and will bring your correct order right out. So the idiot does that. In the meantime they call the cops.

Sad for the child. I remember the article a few weeks/days ago where the mom was driving her kids around and the kids were stealing packages off front porches.

You know, I gotta give a 4 year old a pass for jumping into the fight to protect his dad from attackers as he sees it. That’s way lower than God’s age of accountability.

I will not question the judgement of God in this matter.

Dad should get locked up. But the kid should get a happy meal and a little guidance on life. (But without breaking his manly warrior spirit)

To those who always say: Where are the parents? The problem is no fathers in the home!!

See. This little tyke had his father in the home.

Who do people think their fathers are?!? Lol!

Now how did the officer recognize the shooter was a child ?

“ also recognized that the person holding it was a child and did not return fire.”

Because he was significantly shorter than an adult?
