Supposedly suspects shot at cops and ran, cops blocked them in. Suspects are now hiding and K-9’s are coming in.

The thieves are described as approximately medium in height and build. They are wearing clothing. They are armed and considered marginalized.

If any of these scum are killed there will be family members screaming hysterically.
"He was a good boy!" "The police set him up".

NOPD should just stand down and let the experts at JPSO take care of this one.

NOPD is searching alleyways with rifles out

The alleyways in that area provide convenient access to back yards. The backyards are mostly fenced off though so the remaining criminal will end up getting himself in a corner with no where to go.

I really need to fix your description of the perps:

"The disenfranchised thieves are described as approximately medium in height and build. They are wearing clothing. They are armed and considered marginalized and unfairly targeted."

I can believe it..Ive heard several stories of people catching these thugs in the act of breaking windows and going through cars and when confronted they brandish a gun and hop in the getaway car and drive off.

I bet NOPD caught them in the act and they started shooting at the cops

This is what has happened from everything I'm reading. NOPD has been putting the press on since New Years Day in the area due to auto burglary
