6 Police Officers Shot in Florida and Pennsylvania, 1 Killed and 5 Wounded
I know there is a thread for what happened in Florida. This article covers all three incidents.
Quote:Six police officers were shot, one of them fatally, in three separate incidents in Florida and Pennsylvania late Friday, officials said.
One officer was killed and another gravely injured in Kissimmee around 9:30 p.m., just south of the theme park hub of Orlando, central Florida.
Two officers were critically wounded in Jacksonville, while two state troopers were shot in Fayette County, Pennsylvania.
Quote: In Kissimmee, officers Sam Howard and Matthew Baxter were checking suspects in an area of the city for drug activity when they were shot, Kissimmee Police Chief Jeff O'Dell said at a news conference. They did not have an opportunity to return fire.
"They were surprised," O'Dell said. When asked whether they were ambushed, he said, "It's too early to tell, but it's leading that way."
Police later arrested and charged suspect Everett Glenn Miller, 45, with first degree murder.
Quote: In Jacksonville, Officers Michael Fox and Kevin Jarrell were responding to a call about an attempted suicide at a house. As the approached the property, officers heard gunfire inside the home, Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office Director of Patrol and Enforcement Mike Bruno told NBC News.
Before officers even entered the house, the suspect began shooting at them through the doorway.
"We're talking a gun battle within four or five feet of each other," Jacksonville Sheriff Mike Williams said during a press conference on Saturday. "The suspect fired at the officers, two officers were struck ... and the suspect in the exchange of gunfire was struck twice by the officers."
Williams later identified 25-year-old Derrick Rashard Brabham as the alleged shooter. He later died from his wounds.
Quote: In Pennsylvania, two troopers were shot and a suspect killed after an incident near store on West Church Street in Fayette County, Pennsylvania State Police Trooper Melinda Bondarenka said in a statement.
One of the troopers was air-lifted from the scene to a hospital in Morgantown, West Virginia and the other was taken to a hospital via ambulance, NBC station WPXI reported.
Both were stable and alert, Bondarenka said.

Speaking of NASCAR, wasn't there some sort of issue with them and the confederate flag?

pretty much....today, that firepower is only coming from the left .....go figure how that oxymoron has transitioned over a 60 yr period....
the only thing that's shared there is they still both turn left (with the exception of two tracks)
people just gotta be people when their fingers hit the keyboard....they can't help themselves....

Then you should become more of an activist in stopping those on the left who continue to foment racial division and unrest. They are your ideological brethren after all...
