Just when you thought I was exaggerating about how bad Stockton is...
STOCKTON (CBS13) — A man has been shot and killed by officers after he allegedly charged at them while armed with a gun outside of Stockton police headquarters Wednesday night.
Sounds like "Suicide by Cop". Seems like the likely thing when someone shows up at a police station and then charges 5 Officers. At least no one will get stuck with the bill from the psychiatrist.
The Officers will probably be punished for shooting that deranged person instead of 'de-escalating' and calling a social worker.
My Father, who had a Motorola bag phone stolen out his Ranchero while he was inside paying for the gas he was about to pump, would definitely agree with your Grandma Froman.
The interesting thing was the gal at the register recognized the thief. It was her brother!
A true shame: the pistol is a 1903 Colt Model M, sometimes called the Pocket Model. Chambered for .32ACP and produced through 1946, it was advertised as "Flat as a book". Mine was manufactured in 1919 and gets a eat a box once a year. Fine little machine.
When they won't list how many rounds the cops fired, do the math, 6 cops X 18rnd empty mags if they were shooting 9's. But if you shoot a intruder more than twice, your probably going to spend time in the Big House.
Well, yeah, of course you are. You're a peasant, not a praetorian. Your job is to pay taxes then die. Their job is to collect taxes and kill. - The Government

They needed 911 calls about someone shooting a gun in their own parking lot to know it was going on? Fine work, boys.
