Domestic brawls can be deadly for anyone in the immediate area...Lots of these types of calls in these lousy economic times.

Many people nowadays are very tightly wound, and many of those are nothing but walking time bombs.

Ya get these people that lost their jobs, investments, their homes, debt... and these people just no longer care...Some just go off.

Police spokesman is saying that the shooter was laying in wait for the officers to show up - another ambush? He is also saying that there is no other suspect, although the shooters brother is in custody and beleived to have made the 911 call that triggered the dispatch.

I figured we could get together on this again with tears in our eyes and chills up our spines. This is nuts. I pray that the cops will be okay, but both are in critical condition.

Immediate tears in my eyes. Yes, and the police officers are in critical condition and is it true the suspect is still at large? My heart aches at the thought they may have to conduct another man hunt. Prayers, prayers and more prayers for the wounded officers.

“...responded to a domestic violence incident off Tanwax Court East. Two brothers were involved, and one invited law enforcement inside... One of the brothers was hiding upstairs and shot one of the deputies multiple times...”
“...The suspected shooter also was shot and killed...”
