Four Seattle-area police officers were shot to death Sunday morning in a coffee shop in what officials called a brazen ambush by a lone gunman.
At least one officer apparently fought his way to the coffee shop door and returned fire, possibly wounding the shooter, authorities said. The shooter is likely to seek medical treatment for a gunshot wound, officials said.
The officers, three men and a woman attached to the Lakewood Police Department, were conducting a routine pre-shift briefing over their laptops at the Forza Coffee Shop in Parkland, Wash., near McChord Air Force Base, about 35 miles south of Seattle.
"It was definitely an ambush, target situation. . . . It was not a robbery," said Pierce County Sheriff's Sgt. Ed Troyer, whose department is investigating the killings. "We have our work cut out for us."

thanks, did see that. i will read it.
He already did a few years!

Prayer ping.
I remember that too. I watched the mom be interviewed whose daughter died. Heart wrenching.
Huckabee needs to leave the public arena. Now.
“
Nine years ago, then-Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee granted clemency
to Clemmons, commuting his lengthy prison sentence over the protestations
of prosecutors.
