Similar incident happened in the Coon Rapids, MN (northern Minneapolis suburb) a few months ago, only WAY better outcome.

Concealed-carry permit holder is at a stoplight with his family. Some whacked-out numbnuts in the car next to him pulls gun and starts screaming threats. Concealed-carry permit holder, being a responsible and decent citizen who knows it's his duty to protect his wife and kids, draws and shoots whacked-out-numbnuts (unfortunately he lived). Whacked out numbnuts turns out to be either and off-duty or plainclothes cop, I can't remember which. Good Citizen exonerated, not sure what happened to the cop. He probably went and got a job in another city so he can abuse and try to kill more people.

We had one here a few months ago, in Louisville.

Retired J'town cop emptied his mag in 'self defense' on a CCW holder named Pickerell [?]. Anyways, cop and his wife claimed that he shot when pickerell drew down on him after a road rage incident. Funny thing is that the shots were all fairly close range going INTO the cab of a hummer, and the CCW holder never even got off a round.

Its fairly obvious that the leo had advanced on the hummer and let er rip, even all the 'eyewitness reports' of the first day said bullets bounced off buildings etc.

After that first day the only witness has been the wife. This pr!ck had diciplinary actions for abusive behavior and it was speculated that he was 'retired' for public safety.

Questioned and released...Pickerell was in a coma for a while and has since awakened and began learning to communicate, so time will tell if justice is ever served...
