well, the idiot Cobb county cops will probably try to arrest the pursuing officers.

You had to throw a sexist comment into this mix? I'm sure there are plenty of incompetent EMTs of both sexes. What you pointed out says a lot more about you than it does female EMTs.

Car update. Green Isuzu Trooper. 4697AJY license plate.

Was there a locale included?

I think I just heard them say: After perp got out of building...then shot another deputy on the street....then, opened the car door of an Atlanta Journal reporter and pistol whipped him. So, did he also shoot a court reporter, and pistol whip a news reporter? I am confused.

[Howlin]

Heck, maybe I skimmed past yours and thought I thought it......lol.

WXIA: Suspect could be headed toward Alabama.

Press-checking the 1911 right now

[Lazamataz]

I have heard Roswell cops don't play either....if he past Sandy Springs into Roswell...might be a good thing.

Gwinnett cops don't play. DeKalb cops don't play. Cobb, Roswell, .... it seems only Fulton County cops are pushovers.

FNC: Perp had been out on bond and so wasn't cuffed.

[traumer]

" Suspect could be headed toward Alabama "

Excellent choice !! Right for the electric chair....

[Dead Corpse]

I-75 North of I-285.

So, did he also shoot a court reporter, and pistol whip a news reporter? I am confused.

Yes and yes.

[andyland]

My thoughts exactly!

[TomGuy]

WSB now reporting he may be in:

5th vehicle

TAG: 4697AJY

green Isuztsu (sp) Trooper

=====

GA Dept of Transportation still looking for the green Honda. They apparently haven't been updated.

====

Perp may be returning to an area of the city where he used to live.

I stepped away for a half hour but heard some (female) judge via phone on MSNBC about 10 min ago advocating all be disarmed, including the deputies.

Good grief.

[mrs tiggywinkle]

So, is a News-copter following his moves...or a LE-copter? Can't they just lob a missile into the vehicle? Wishful thinking.

Here's my rant:...

Wrong rant.

My version:

WHEN are we going to seriously train our law enforcement officers with regard to the most powerful weapon at their disposal --- the firearm!

Firearms training for local and state law enforcement is a joke.

A simple holster change would make it more difficult for perps to remove the sidearm of an officer when struggling.

[ApesForEvolution]

fwiu, he's had access to lots of guns and ammo now...

[marshmallow]

I have a feeling that we'll never see this guy in court.

Either he gets clean away or, if the cops track him down, he turns the last bullet on himself.

This has all the hallmarks of one of those.
