Fortunately no cops were injured.

gunman inside a gun shop near Atlanta began shooting at police officers, who returned fire after responding to reports of a break-in at the business shortly before dawn Tuesday, Marietta police said. No injuries were reported and four suspects have been apprehended at the Deercreek Gunshop in Marietta, just northwest of Atlanta, Marietta police Officer Brittany Wallace told The Associated Press.

There have been several burglaries of gun shops/ranges in the metro area recently.

They're all scary and saddening, but any officer involved shooting is going to be national news for the next few weeks, even though Dallas and BR are a different animal.

Police were using an armored police vehicle to make entry into the gun store, Wallace said shortly before 8 a.m. Tuesday.


Sounds like they are tearing the place up. I can see them destroying the store and then telling the owner: "OK it's safe now" and then just leaving. What happened to sending in the K9?

I'd use smoke or tear gas before a K-9.

I doubt they send a K9 into 4 armed suspects in a small gun store. That would be a death sentence.

This has took a bad turn.Robbing Gun Stores.

Like the crap that went on with Dillinger,etc..robbing Police Stations of their Thompson Machine Guns and BARs.

I guess we need a new crime category. Let's call it black-on-blue crime.
