Shootout in Central California

I haven't seen it on this board, but I haven't looked everywhere yet; we had a major shooting incident in Minkler, CA about 8 miles north of where I live (Reedley) (on Thursday, 25th); http://www.fresnobee.com/2010/02/26/1839186/minkler-suspect-planned-on-deadly.html. The toll consists of one dead county sheriff, one wounded county sheriff (not critical), and one Reedley police officer who is on life support and, barring a miracle, not expected to live. The perp killed himself.

Here is the link from the day of the shootout: http://www.fresnobee.com/2010/02/25/1836634/officer-involved-shooting-reported.html?storylink=omni_popular

depending upon his first prison trip, and he might not have been guilty the first time, he might have thought he was justified on this instance. God knows the truth and God will judge rightly. i pray for them all. charlie

jacksson,

I heard about this horrible event on the radio first and then read about it in my Sunday newspaper.

What a shame for such a small, quiet town. I guess everywhere has those people who from time to time go off the rails and do something like this.

If you know the families of those killed or wounded please express our sincere condolences to them. It is certainly a shame that this has to happen.
