I guess the police protocol is if your stun gun doesn’t work, shoot to kill. Idiots.
Has anyone heard about a video of the incident? It had to have been captured on tape.
Sadly, my local Costco is in the news. First I’ve read about this. I’ll have to check to see if anyone I know, knows something.
Did the pizza have anchovies?
5 shots and the morons shot each other...It’s a pity they didn’t miss her altogether and taken each other out...
comment on nbcwashington.com:
“My wife, baby and I were in the yard section 2 aisles over from the food section where it happened. We saw about 8 cops run by, and then a manager walk right by us and not say a word! Next thing I heard was “Drop the Knife” and then 1 shot followed very quickly by about 3 or 4 more.”
Having been an MP I think that if I and 6 or 7 partners couldn’t handle a girl without having to kill her I’d look for another line of work....
Need more facts.
...the eight-officer team subsequently departed the Costco premises and traveled approximately four miles to the woman's home, where they shot her dog.
PS Was the pizza made in China too?
Stories like this one remind me of The X-Files. Did anybody notice a strange cable guy playing around on the utility poles near this woman’s house?
“Mhai Scott” is a Philippine name. The last name Scott is an Anglicization of the Philippine name “Sikat”, and very popular with Philippinos who have immigrated to the US.
This sounds like something that happened in my city about twenty years ago. A patient at a local dentist’s office began acting erratically after receiving a routine anesthetic. They cleared the office and called the cops. Three cops arrived and cornered the guy in a hallway. He pulled out a small object, similar to a nail file, and the three cops proceeded to blow him to kingdom come. The city settled with his survivors for a large amount.
How dangerous can this dingbat have been in that she only was waving the knife and scissors around in all the time before the cops got there. So she’s waving the scissors and knife around 10 or 15 minutes. Nobody gets stabbed.
The cops go in KNOWING they are approaching a knife wielding potential assailant, and not a single one of them grabs a long item or tool to use to block her from closing in on them?
Are cops just stupid today?
Mhai Scott
