COPS paid a visit to my hometown of Omaha, Nebraska filming Omaha Police Department. Police responded to a Robbery in Progress, shots were fired killing suspect and Cops crew member filming the incident. Suspect was a parolee out of Kansas.

Sorry to hear that...I'm not a fan of letting sociopaths run loose, I'm also not a fan of people who think they can change these people that are wired as such.

So much for the claims that the show was fake, eh?

The COPS crew member was actually shot by the Police somehow. Not much detail yet just simply and acknowledgement by the PD that they are the ones who shot him.

He was killed by an officer in the exchange and was wearing a vest but the bullet entered under the armpit.. he was probably holding up a boom mike would be my best guess when the round sneaked in...tragic for all concerned.

Sounds like the bad guy with the airsoft gun ran towards or out the door and towards the crew member, and cops shooting at the suspect hit the crew member.
Tragic, and the crew member probably never had a chance to go for cover if the cops were firing as the bad guy ran.

How did we all know from reading just the headline that it would turn out that the Buffoons in Blue and not the suspect shot the TV crew member.
Adding insult to the injury of his (TV crew member) loved ones the suspect was unarmed with only a toy gun.
Rather than criminals, cops are much too often the greater danger to citizens.
Criminals, you can avoid or effectively and legally defend yourself against. Cops, you are completely subject to their nonexistent competence and mercy.

just wondering how the officer managed to shoot the guy. Was the film crew fellow in front of the police? Were the cops just shooting wildly? Interesting............

Dumbass bad guy tried to exit the Wendys whilst shooting airsoft pellets at the cops and got too close to the sound guy.

Just as a side note....
Cops did what all the anti-gunners are saying that concealed carry licensees will do. Shooting wildly without ensuring what's behind the target and thus killing bystanders.
I'm not blasting the cops, bad things happen when stupid people start gunfights and NOBODY is going to be 100% sure of where each bullet goes when shooting at a moving target. I'm just saying that while this is a tragedy, and while the cops' actions will be justified, a concealed carry licensee who did the same thing could possibly end up with jail time and the incident being used for anti-gun propaganda. The 2A folks need to be willing to stand up and frankly discuss the fact that sometimes bad things happen whether it's law enforcement or trained civilians.

Police need to bring up this shooting when they push for limitations on civilian firearms possession to deflect attention away from themselves.

Very sad to hear. I don't like the show and think the "Bad Boys" mentality has been a detriment against society. It's terrible what officers must face in big cities and Joe public is often treated with the same force even when not necessary. When lawlessness and a lack of real justice are combined, everyone suffers.
Suspect should never have been out of jail. We are at the point that to clean society we would have to have Hitlers gas chambers running around the clock.

Why do you cast a negative light on police using force against everyone they want, but then indicate you want Zyklon in use against many people who have had their convictions overturned? I find your lack of faith disturbing.
