The carefully aimed target location apparently was no accident, but probably also why he survived and the other cop didn't.
I have been hearing rumors about possible affair for several days now. I was told by someone who is involved in the search. I did not know, however, that Frein allegedly shot the wounded trooper in the balls or that the wounded trooper lived in the same neighborhood as Frien’s brother and sister-in-law. Although there may not have been an affair, there is apparently no dispute that the trooper and Frien’s sister-in-law knew each other.
