T. PETERSBURG - Three law enforcement officers were shot this morning – a U.S. Marshal and two St. Petersburg police officers – in the 3700 block of 28th Avenue South, police said.

A suspected gunman is barricaded in a home at 3726 28th St. S., and police are trying to negotiate with his family members. He is still shooting at police, officers said.

One of the injured officers had been in the home as well, but an armored vehicle knocked down the door and the officer was evacuated. That officer has been taken to Bayfront Medical Center.

It will be interesting to see the history of the shooter. I fear once again it will be someone who had no business being on the street.

About 50% of everyone in south St Pete has no business being on the street.

Sarah Palin’s fault?

TEA party’s fault?

President Bush’s fault?

All of the above?

I’d put that number much higher, personally.

St. Pete is the definition of cesspool!

We lost two in Miami Thursday, the funeral is this morning (streets closed for the family) and they just heard about this shooting.

4 in Detroit, 2 shot in Washington at a WalMart. It’s open season on cops.

Has Clarence Dupnik run to the TV cameras yet? I assume he'll want to weigh in on it...

Yes, I know this isn't Pima County. I'm going on the assumption he can't help himself...

Detroit— Police today identified the gunman who walked into a police precinct Sunday afternoon and opened fire with a shotgun, injuring four officers before return gunfire took his life.
Detroit Police Chief Ralph Godbee identified the man as 38-year-old Lamar Moore. Moore entered the 6th Precinct on the city’s northwest side about 4:30 p.m. and shot Cmdr. Brian Davis, in charge of the precinct, Officer David Anderson, Sgt. Ray Saati and Sgt. Carrie Schulz.

Regardless of shooters political/mental history...prayers for the families of our unappreciated law enforcement folks.

Crime against our cops is not a video game or Hollywood movie,folks, but REALITY.

Sorry for the rant..

What are the odds he’s a illegal. Like the one that killed the two cops in Fl. last week.

Remember it was the libs that wanted to let all the nuts out of the nuthouse and put them on the streets, reassuring us that the outpatient setting was good enough to mainstream these people back into society. Sure they will gladly take their medications on the outside.

As with everything the left does, it's the good intentions that they want, and never take the blame for the actual actions.
