I thought I was going into town tonight to meet some detective pals for dinner but when I got to the Murder Squad office there was a call.
Tonight in Nashville two officers shot and killed a suspect who had been ramming his wifes car across a parking lot and then attemted to run ovcer the officers with his vehicle.
After smashing one patrol car and punching the first officer to reach him, Officer's one and two fired on the suspect as he tried to run through officer two and into his wife's vehicle, where a third officer was trying to help a child from the smashed car.
The suspect was hit at least 7 times and the officers fired 13 shots together. As far as we could tell every bullet fired struck the vehicle the suspect was in. One officer fired from the side of the vehicle at less than 5 feet, the other officer fired from the fron tof the vehicle at a ranges between 2 and 10 feet from the front bumper.
These were both veteran officers who performed there duty very well.
The guy had a history of Domestic Violence and had been taped several times threatening her life and the life of their child. he had been arrested a few times before and I believe there was a restraining order on him. He had chased her for several miles before the final confrontation.
At the same time that I was drawing chalk circles and numbers in the parking lot to represent where witnesses were standing (Detectives nightmare, a movie had just let out and dozens of people were "witnesses"), another less superb officer had an AD with his shotgun into the ground and sprayed fragments of lead and concrete all over his partner and a robbery victim. They both recieved minor abrasions, but just wait until the lawyers and press get a hold of it.
I finally got a cheeseburger four hours later.
