The suspect, identified as 41-year-old Markeith Loyd, was accused of murdering his pregnant girlfriend last month

quote:

"(The shooter) was an average looking dude, he walked by me, had a security vest and everything," witness James Herman told the station. "I was walking down the sidewalk, right past the officer, and I heard her tell him to stop, or whatever, and he shot her. He shot her down."

Herman said a shopper had tipped off the unnamed officer -- who was putting bags in the trunk of her vehicle -- that Loyd was in the Walmart waiting to check out. As the officer walked towards the store, the suspect barged out and fired at least 12 shots, according to Herman. Three shots hit the officer, WFTV reported.

Orlando police warned Loyd may be armed and dangerous. They swarmed the Pine Hills area a few miles west of Orlando in their hunt for the suspect, and said he abandoned a stolen vehicle not far from the Walmart.

A game warden was shot in North LA just a couple of days ago. He's alive though. And they arrested the shooter and charged her with attempted 1st degree murder.

Fluid scene


Fluid scene?
so the scene is flowing? or is blood flowing? never heard that before.

Regardless, i'm sure it was the officers fault since they are all terrible and a guy named Markeith would never do anything wrong.

One has to believe this wasn't his first time killing someone.

Pine Hills is a completely shitty area of Orlando.

Looks like the cop was a female, black I think. Dude was wearing a security type uniform for some reason, and I think the cop tried to stop him.

Dude has nothing to lose now. He's looking the death penalty straight in the face.

I just hope this ends without him killing someone else.
