Wow...lot's of powerful response! DA's & Texas Ranger investigating the shooting.......

I think the only needed response to something like this is the Coroner.

The DA and Texas Rangers are involved in most police deadly force investigations. It's for the protection of both the officer and his agency and to assure the public there was no wrongdoing. If I were that cop I would welcome the third party investigation.

Very strange for this area indeed. I hadn't heard about it until now, so I guess I need to keep a better ear out locally.

Reading the latest link, just above this comment, the robber scored $1,200 from Little Caesar's Pizza.

The LEO fired 3 shots, hitting the BG 2X: once in the arm and once in the forehead - you know that left a mark.

My wife's cousin just got caught criming for the 20th time in 19 years. We do believe he's finally going away for a while. He got on the crack and has never come back. It's time to lock him away for a long time.

Starting a gunfight with a BB gun is apparently a less than optimal strategy. :cheers2:
