that is a mean, nutty looking guy - I don't think the citizens whipped on him enough.

I read somewhere earlier that it was a small caliber gun. This could bode well for the trooper.

While their movement can be erratic, it can also lodge somewhere without causing much damage. I may be reaching but I would like to see him not just survive, but fully recover and prosper.


Unfortunately, it was also said that he took three rounds and there is no brain activity. Terrible situation.

The suspect was subsequently detained by passing motorists as additional citizens rendered aid to the Trooper until assistance arrived on the scene.





Take that bystander effect. Good people still in this world.

Prayers to the Trooper and his family, friends and colleagues.

He said three pellets. I thought he said buckshot but am unsure if I really heard that.

2-3 pellets? Sounds like this may turn out to be a best case scenario-type situation for the trooper, relatively speaking.
