Police detectives investigate a shooting incident involving a blue Toyota Tacoma pickup truck in Torrance, Calif. Police opened fire on the vehicle in a case of mistaken identity while searching for former Los Angeles police officer Christopher Dorner.
Those cops need to be removed from the force before they murder someone.
Repeat after me: “Only cops are qualified and trained to handle firearms.”.
These idiots should be up on charges of attempted murder and violations of 18USC242. Then they should be tried, convicted, stripped of their pensions, imprisoned for life, and sued into bankruptcy until their families are dead broke and starving in the streets.
LA Cops....what else is there to say?
Don’t know if they were warned or not, but my assumption was certainly that they were not. Should be criminal charges against the officers involved if in fact they just opened fire.
Wait just a minute.....no family pets been shot and killed yet?
As the wise and great NWA said in 89 (FU__ The Police)!!!
The cops are scared to death. Remember when that guy threatened to beat up Barney Fife? I guess it’s true about bullies being cowards at heart.
If they think he is that stupid to do something like that, then they have underestimated him and they will never catch him.
These cops need to be fired..you cant just open fire on any car because it looked like Dorner’s vehicle. Luckily these two women were not seriously injured
I’s a miracle that they are still alive. A quick glance indicates about 40 rounds fired.
two hispanic women in a blue truck being mistaken for a large black man in a dark gray vehicle... cops opening fire without any reason to even pull the gun out of the holster...
Those evil taxpayers will be made to pay for all this!
crazy
Cops go nuts when one of their own is threatened and in this case they themselves are threatened. SOCAL folks better give them a wide berth until this perp is shot. I say shot, because it’s real clear he won’t be caught.
Also note, they were looking for ONE guy, yet the bullet holes clearly indicate that they were shooting at TWO people. Now yes, its possible that the suspect would have someone with him, but wouldn't you think that second person might be a hostage?
These cops need to go to jail for attempted murder.
Normally I deplore Civil Litigators, all too often they are chasing ambulances, making vague claims about pharmaceuticals on daytime TV commercials or suing over hot coffee. But if this happened to me or my own, a shark would have been my first call after assurances of my family’s or my well being..
And I still think that is a Broncho Bamma sticker on the bumper of that POlice car.
Ban guns.
guns are safe in the hands of policemen?
I’m glad that it is now policemen who are having a gun battle. It lowers them to the civilian status in the sense that they should also go through all the background and mental checks.
oh, and it’s not a “man hunt” it’s a “police hunt”.
Welcome to the shoot first and ask questions later school of police work. And you thought “Police Academy” was just a movie.
Possible legal action? I would guess that it would easily take eight figures to the left of the decimal place for them to even consider not going to court. Those cops won't be fired because they endanged civilians, they'll get canned for making those two women Megamillions jackpot winners.
Some nice grouping.
