911 call deliberate act to lure Bristol (CT) police officers to scene: state police (2 dead one injured)
WTNH ^

Posted on 10/13/2022 12:19:23 PM PDT by matt04

Two police officers who were shot dead in Bristol were apparently lured to a home by an emergency call about possible domestic violence between two brothers, authorities said Thursday.

Bristol Police Chief Brian Gould said Sgt. Dustin DeMonte, 35, and Officer Alex Hamzy, 34, were killed. Officer Alec Iurato, 26, was wounded and underwent surgery at St. Francis Hospital. He has since been released from the hospital.

State police Sgt. Christine Jeltema said the officers were responding to a report of domestic violence at about 10:30 p.m. when they encountered someone outside the house and shots were fired. State police said in a release that the 911 call appears to have been “a deliberate act to lure law enforcement” to the house on Redstone Hill Road.

Sources close to the investigation confirmed to News 8 that the suspects used an AR-15-style firearm in the shooting. Those sources also told News 8 that 14 guns were seized from the home during the investigation.

Hmmmm...CNN was just whining about SCOTUS striking down gun laws, active lawsuit in CT after Bruen over the scary black rifle bans, and a fake domestic violence call gets 3 officers shot with a rifle.

Bristol?!
It was never Avon or Westport, but it wasn’t that bad. Did ESPN ruin it or something?
What would Colonel Clown say?

matt04 :" Sources close to the investigation confirmed to News 8 that the suspects used an AR-15-style firearm in the shooting."

The article suggests :" suspects"
thus implying that there is more than one suspect.
Can anyone verify ?

Supposedly two brothers. Both were shot, one dead. No idea if self inflicted or not.

Supposedly two brothers were involved. The police know whose house it was, who is in the hospital, who murdered thir officers. Why is it not possible to reveal those secrets to the public? Does it not occur to the cops that witnesses might come forward who know things about the perpetrators?

I think we need to do the Solar System a favor and speed up “Global Warming”. This chicken coop isn’t worth saving. Too many greedy tribes here for one planet.

Agree about more info to the public sooner.

These fake seats and trap calls are more frequent.

The public will have to wait for the Ultra MAGA x-ray drone to clear the building before police may enter. Armed drones will allow police to work from home by remote control.

State police said the suspect, 35-year-old Nicholas Brutcher, was shot and pronounced dead at the scene. His brother, Nathan Brutcher, 32, was also shot and taken to St. Francis Hospital for treatment of his wounds. His condition was not immediately known.

Prayers to the Bristol officers. I guess Bristol isn’t the town it was in the 90s. I guess wonderful illegals moved in...
