No wonder the cops in WI are very concerned with citizens having their own guns.

The citizens's guns are a much larger danger than those of the cops.

Jail time, range time, job search time... all of the above?

He will live to tell his side of the story. Sure hope he doesn’t “hang himself” in jail/s;)

Nothing in the story but I kinda wonder why they were shooting at him. I mean a 76 yr old guy probably isn’t gonna jump a bunch of cops.

Is this a joke??? I’d fire them all and start over. I would do my initial interview at the range. Let me see you shoot and then we will talk.

When officers arrived, Waukesha police say the elderly man threatened officers.

“The suspect pointed a long gun at the officers and shot at the officers. The officers then returned fire,” says Waukesha Police Department Chief Russell Jack.

Authorities arrested the elderly man, identified by witnesses as Petarius, after a nearly one-hour standoff.

“Both officers are doing physically fine,” said Waukesha Police Chief Russell Jack on Wednesday.

“One officer suffered a minor grazing head wound, possibly caused by the debris from the round fired from the suspect. Both officers are currently recovering emotionally from this very traumatic incident.”

None of the shots hit the man, Dick Petarius, 76.

Maybe he wouldn't stand still.

This "fire fight" was meant to meet the empty casings report due that week. They were just shy of getting additional funding to the district for whatever crime rate it had. Sometimes a few more empty casings will grease the money machine.

lol

Maybe they were “warning” shots?

Police fire 26 shots at man, none hit

That sounds about right.

I still remember the story of the two officers with a perp in the back of the car, who somehow had a weapon, and all are firing at each other, something like 70-plus rounds fired inside the car, nobody hit. I just wonder how freaking deaf they all were after that.
