Around 4:30, I thought I heard fireworks....
 

turns out that there was a shoot-out between three police officers and and suspect. It was just reported that one of the officers died. :( I used to live at the other end of the street it happened on, and currently live just a few blocks away.

Good, ALL COPS ARE PIGS and deserve to die.

alright

:shake:

These things normally don't work out so well for the "suspect."

Bwana, he's also in critical condition.

Are you still living in the same town as you were before?

Yeah.

you have 26k posts

Pretty sure there was some sarcasm here.

LMAO

its prolly gona be a big trend .. money is tight and cops work for the upper class ....

Oh my public brutality

Small world, my first girlfiend lived on Greenbriar and I had friends that lived on Milwawkee and Downing(1 block to the east and west). I used to walk to school on Greenbriar and had my first fight at the baptist church on the corner of Anamosa and Greenbriar and delivered the Rapid Journal to all the area around Knollwood when I was about 12. Strange to see it in a familiar area, much less in Rapid.

Not too surprised to see this in that neighborhood. There were some great people that lived there, but there were also some that weren't.

Was this the shooting i just heard about in Rapid City?

Wow! It is a small world. The crime rate in this particular neighborhood is actually really low now. All of the "bad" things are more apt to happen on the other side of Maple.

Most likely! I don't think that there's been more than one in the last 24 hours lol.

Holy shit...that happened in Rapid City, SD? What's next....Pierre?

This is going to sound racist as hell....but it really doesn't surprise me.

I know what you mean.... it would have surprised me less though if it had happened down near Rapid Creek instead of in a housing area.

After living in South Dakota for 12 years.....and being friends with plenty of people from the reservations......I've determined that young Native American males have to be the most angry people ever. JFC.

chief slap-a-ho

Those are among the poorest counties in the nation. No shit they're pissy.

The reservations are a scary place at night. And i don't just mean the people. The packs of roaming wild dogs can get ya just as easy.

He was probably drunk

Update
 

A seemingly routine police stop turned into a deadly shootout in a North Rapid neighborhood late Tuesday afternoon that killed one Rapid City police officer and wounded two other officers and the gunman.

It also left the Rapid City law-enforcement community stunned and saddened at the loss of Officer James Ryan McCandless, 28, the first city police officer shot dead in the line of duty since 1916.

I was talking to some friends that work at the hospital today and they were saying (keep in mind - that this is not "official"). The three officers were talking to the 4 guys for about 10 minutes when the shooter pulled the gun and started shooting. I still haven't heard any rumors as to why these guys were pulled over to begin with.
