FREEMANSBURG, Pa. (AP) -- Authorities say a police officer slain while responding to a domestic disturbance in a small eastern Pennsylvania borough had pointed a stun gun at two dogs before being shot.
The Morning Call of Allentown reports Freemansburg police Officer Robert Lasso had pointed at the attacking dogs when the homeowner pulled out a shotgun and fired the fatal blast Thursday evening.

Does PA have the death penalty?
Mr idiot will now spend the rest of his life setting on death row, damn fool.
He’s like doritos - they’ll make more.
. . . . good!
And the dogs will more than likely be put down unless a suitable home can be found for them.
But the price for shooting a cop remains the same. This guy will fry, if PA has the death penalty.

This happened in my area. I have a lot of questions about this. Freemansburg cops are a bunch hard asses. Not professional in my opinion. I would like to know why this perp shot the officer if he knew he was a cop. Was the cop out of uniform? There needs to be more info before I call for the perp to fry. This doesn’t add up to me.
“Court documents indicate the alleged gunman, 46-year-old George Hitcho Jr., had told Lasso to get off his property.”

Somebody better check. Is this guy a FReeper?
Cause I’ve read way too many replies from FReepers who have said they would do this if ever a cop shot their dog.
I wonder what the cop killers FReeper name is?
I already see that one of his kind has already posted on this thread.
Updates would be appreciated.
Huh, a cop’s hard on for attacking dogs backfires on him.

Before you pop off again, it says domestic violence call. And by law, all the so called private property claims go out the window. Try a little educational reading, it may help you, but I doubt it.
Jeez, no kidding.
