Off-Duty Dallas Officer Accidentally Shoots Son

[Renegade]

The incompetence in the Department seems to have no end in sight. Fortunately for the son, Pops was incompetent at shooting in addition to being incompetent at Identification. They are trying to keep this one from getting out, not even releasing names, though by stating shooting happened at 1400 block of Carriage Creek Drive, DeSoto, Texas, it is not hard to find out who owns that home.

Did he shoot him through the window?

 

[ZX9RCAM]

So, this happened in broad daylight?

And he hit him in the arm...

 

[DoubleDuty]

Another broken rule, know what you are shooting at

 

[txinvestigator]

Mistaken for an intruder at 6pm, in the daylight? The details of this will surely paint a different picture.

I'm thinking not a pretty picture of apparently too many in the DPD.

What's incompetent about shooting an intruder? Your bias is showing.

It wasn't an intruder, and he basically missed his target. Your stupidity is showing.

It is really not related to him being a cop.

It is really not related to him being a cop.

it is related to his skill set, or lack thereof. Who trained him?......

 

[F350-6]

This is just another example of why only trained police officers should be allowed to have firearms.

Wait... Nevermind.

On a more positive note, at least it appears the officer wasn't in a mixed race marriage so the story became another white cop shoots black guy story.

Yup.
The incompetence is him being in such a hurry to shoot that even in broad daylight he shot before he not only identified WHO he was shooting at but also whether or not the target was even a danger.

There is more going on. Given even the circumstances we have, I don't buy the story.
