All dog killings and speedtrap talk aside, things like this are why sometimes I may not agree with what our officers do-but I still respect what they are putting themselves up against on a daily basis.

 

[General Zod]

Damn. It'll be interesting to see the shooter's background come to light. Hope the second officer recovers fully and quickly.

Two streets over from me.

Did you hear it trey? I guess you weren't kidding about being in a rough neighborhood.

 

[Tejano Scott]

God bless this officers friends and family. And quick recovery for the injured officer.

No I didn't. Although I hear what I thinks are shots on occasion. I heard all kinds of sirens around that time though. Could have been that.

Man, that's horrible. The officer had a wife and four daughters.

Between this and your other thread, I'd move if I was you.

My college instructor is friends with several kpd officers and gave us the unofficial report. The attacker was a soldier. He was at the apartment complex pool and got in an argument with a resident about said residents tattoo. So then the attacker goes into his unit, retrieves his AK47 and returns to the pool, waving it around. This clears out the pool area and several residents call 911. Two officers arrive at the scene and as they're walking to the attackers unit, he opens fire. They retreat and call in back up. SWAT shows up, and are talking to the attacker from a distance. The attacker than opens his front door and holds both hands in the air. After short discussion, two SWAT officers approach him to apprehend him. As they get close, he quickly reaches over and grabs his AK47 that was next to him but outta sight, and lights up the two officers. The SWAT team then takes out the attacker immediately.

What unit is issuing AK's at Fort Hood? And why would he be allowed to remove one and leave the base?

I agree. I'm working on it for sure.

I think he was referring to his apartment as a unit. Not a unit armory. We do not have Ak's on post.

That is really sad. I can't imagine the heartbreak of my ladies if I had passed. I can appreciate how much this man must have loved his girls. What a sad realization to know he would probably not make it back to them.

God bless this man and God be with his wife and daughters.

Ah, ok. I thought it sounded odd.

 

[Shotgun Jeremy]

Yea, i was referring to his apartment unit in his complex. One of the odd things about all this is the neighbors are saying he was normally a happy, calm guy. They even said the neighborhood isn't bad and they have no plans of moving.

I was reading the last officer killed on the job from Killeen was 1917?

 

[Shotgun Jeremy]

Yea, i read that as well

From Killeen or in Killeen? I don't doubt you may have read this, but I seriously doubt the credibility. We have shootings here weekly. Maybe they are good shots and never loose these shoot outs? I've seen high speed pursuits, drug busts among many other crazy stuff go down here. This place is hell and by far the worst town I have been to in Texas and I've lived in every major city in Texas.
