Here in Tacoma yesterday a Police officer was shot and killed while responding to a call about an injured dog and a domestic dispute. In the standoff that ensued, the armed suspect held his children captive and used them as shields. Several officers stayed in the house attempting to negotiate with the lunatic but eventually the swat team got an opening and took him out. Here are several news stories and information on a memorial fund for his family. He had a fiance and kids. http://www.king5.com/news/local/off...side-suspect-barricaded-inside-home/359944347 http://www.king5.com/news/heartfelt...coma-police-officers-shooting-death/360970061 http://www.thenewstribune.com/news/local/crime/article118282973.html http://www.kiro7.com/news/local/how-to-donate-for-fallen-tacoma-officer-jake-gutierrez/472255966
It's always tragic when an officer is killed in the line of duty. Condolences to his family, co-workers and friends. LFD
