Police said Ramos used the bank customer, who had been taken hostage, as a human shield. She and two suspects were killed. Ramos was not injured in the hail of gunfire.

Not mentioned, but I would suspect it will turn out that the woman was killed by police return fire (human shield).

When cops open fire at a car with a female hostage held as a shield what do they expect will be the typical outcome? There had to be a better ending for this woman and mother like they show on TV every night.

If the cops knew about this gang why didn’t they do something about it before, not after, regardless of Obama?

I’m not as sympathetic to cops earning +200K (in 2009) a year in a bankrupted city when their 1st priority is not protecting the public that is forced to pay their freight.

Interesting that Fox News closes comments on this article.
