I wonder what the warrant was for? What, in his mind, was that bad, that he decided to shoot at police?


People are nuts. Some would rather shoot at a cop and run rather than get a speeding ticket. These SJW types don't consider that all that is going through a cop's mind when they deal with people.

Someone in the house, not sure if it was the shooter, was molesting a juvenile foster kid.

The shooter was a Vietnam vet, avid shooting enthusiast and a 3 gun champion a few years back. Just shows what a motivated opponent who has training can do.

It was the younger person, the 27 year old, who was also shot, that was the suspect in the sexual violence case.

who shot who? Did the cops shoot the suspect or did the shooter shoot everybody?

Affected by Agent Orange apparently. Surprised the media isn’t picking this story up more.

Terrible. The way the police chief explained it the guy had the advantage of an elevated position....bad situation for those guys to come up on.

It had to take incredible restraint on behalf of the arriving officers to take this bastard alive. Professionals, all the way.

Is Florence one of the departments on live PD?

This is so surreal. The shooter's wife is a very well-respected family law attorney in Florence.
