...Initial reports say the officer was not hit and is uninjured. The suspect has taken off on foot, and authorities in the area are searching for him
Maybe time to start hunting over bait ........ put a cop in a marked cruiser that has been hardened to level 7 with a bag of doughnuts watching blazing saddles on his toughbook laptop then post a counter sniper team or three or four on overwatch........kneecap, kneecap win win ......
Yeah, if it can be done safely, I much prefer kneecap to between the eyes. It gives the perp more time to reflect on his own stupidity. And the shooter doesn’t have to wrestle with causing another’s death.
Within a mile of where I live.... Glad to have a large dog who barks loudly at strangers
Don’t expect to hear this kind of story out of Sioux Falls.
Did you have protests there?
Seems there were pro-Indian anti-police protests: “One protester who goes only by the name Standing Soldier said a similar protest earlier in Sioux Falls, where he now lives, was successful. He said the Rapid City demonstration, and others that could follow, will matter to Lakota children in the future.” http://www.keloland.com/newsdetail.cfm/police-protest-rally-aimed-at-racial-awareness/?id=173522
No real anti police protests or riots in Sioux Falls since the American Indian Movement raised hell in the early 1970s
