If he had an AK, SKS etc, and he just started shooting rapid fire, he must have missed their hard plates a few times. Maybe he got of ten shots, and 3 or 4 made contact off the plates. That’s my guess. We’ll see. Thanks for the info.
Just heard on FNC he used handgun on two motorcycle cops and then went to place where he knew he had a rifle and that is what he used on 3 other SWAT cops he hit, one of which died as well as the 2 traffic cops.......
This reminds me a bit of the infamous 1986 FBI shootout in Miami where lessons were learned the hard way about how to—and how not to—effectively engage and eliminate well-armed criminals. How did not one but two motorcycle cops get taken out with headshots from a handgun fired by a two-bit thug? Why did two experienced SWAT team members go down? There are well-established protocols and tactics that are supposed to be followed that give almost all the advantages to the SWAT team members—not to the thug. There’s a lot we don’t know at this point, but the circumstantial evidence suggests that there was a failure of tactics or training.
