"It does seem that the major news outlets are hesitant to state the race of the suspect."
the feed I'm watching is showing his picture pretty much constantly.

This is truly bizarre..there is on HELL of an enormous police presence in the area.
Am guessing they have a large are cordoned off..and now have to clear it..
“several hundred officers on scene..border patrol, FDLE, Fl HP, and local Miami Dade..”

That’s true but this guy was not an Arab or Hispanic. The picture they showed on TV he looked like Jessie Jackson.

“Jesus....if youre a cop in Miami and you dont wear a vest...sorry....but youre stupid.”
Really, and these were some kind of burglary response team. Should be “tactical” types and not rookie traffic cops.
Their soft body armor may not have been sufficient protection against the bad guy if he was using a rifle.
I suspect the bad guy had body armor. He was probably jacked up on crack or meth and came out of the car smokin’. The police probably hit him with a couple of pistol rounds but he shrugged them off and returned superior firepower with his rifle.
Very tragic, in a post 9/11 world the authorities need to have better training and tactics.

After the shooting, its believed one suspect barricaded himself inside a building at 280th Street and Southwest 143rd Court. That's right in the area where I lived, pre-Andrew .. Naranja Lakes. It's probably a reconstructed area.

WSVN-TV Miami - news updates and video
Per the news update, the number of law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty is the highest in 30 years.
I'm still trying to figure out, why they were tracking this guy .. and did it start at a private home or an apartment complex?

"That’s true but this guy was not an Arab or Hispanic. The picture they showed on TV he looked like Jessie Jackson.Agreed, but I was talking about Black Muslims in the area. Just as an FYI, do a search on any of the search engines for Black muslims in Miami or Black Muslims in Tampa. It's an eye opener.

I can see them not wearing their vests...its hot and muggy there. that is why all the hoods are raised on the police cars, so they dont overheat.
Now, pulling over an erratic driver is something else. In CA they get a patrol car to do that....but that is the way the vehicle code is written etc. (Unmarked car cant issue a traffic citation)

We’ve heard he was “driving erratically” and we’ve heard the officers were on “ a tactical stakeout”...
Not sure what it all means yet..

I got the impression they were on an unrelated stakeout...and the guy just came barreling through the neighborhood....
but you folks have been watching longer.
Lots of residential burglarlies among the flipper homes in Florida....actually, that is happening all over in the overbuilt areas.
