I hope he’s swiss cheese.

I know some troopers and am related to one through marriage and have a great deal of respect for them.

Prayers up for all of them.

This turd will probably do himself before the troopers get the satisfaction of dispatching him from this life

Police said Trim is 6'1", 170 pounds, with blue eyes and brown hair. He was last seen wearing a torn red flannel shirt, jeans and had a hooded sweat shirt and an eyebrow ring, troopers said.

Eyebrow ring, torn clothes, weighs nothing . . . methhead, anyone?

He won't be missed.

Just heard on WGY that 2 Troopers are at Albany Med fighting for their lives. Lots of vacant summer camps in the area for this guy to hide out in.

News just said they had him surrounded and shots have been fired. He’s toast.

This is about the original trooper.The confrontation came as police activity intensified Wednesday morning during the manhunt for a suspect in the shooting of Trooper Matthew Gombosi, who was shot in the torso in Margaretville on the edge of Catskill Park at about 3 p.m. Tuesday afternoon. He was saved from serious injury by his body armor, police said.

And bad news. The trooper shot in the head this morning has died.
