| 100% Space Shuttle Door Gunner | Post; OFFICER DOWNToday was the worse day in my life. I responded to the worst call a cop can respond to. OFFICER DOWN. Four Miami Dade County PD officers were shot, one was killed. I was one of the first units to arrive. It looked like a war zone. One officer was missing half of his head, the others were bleeding and screaming in pain. Searching the area for the killer was an extreme drain on my nerves. The killer used a rifle on the officers, our vests were like paper. Searching house to house was one of the most scary things I have done in my life. Before I arrived on the scene I asked the Good Lord to watch over those that were there and also for those that were arriving. I then asked my partner if he had the shotgun in the trunk of the patrol car.I truly thought that I might not make it home when I was driving to the scene. So I figured might as well make my peace with God now and get ready for a can of firefight. In the end, today has sucked...

| Tribunus Laticlavius | A very sad day Luis, and I'm really sorry to hear about it. Was the shooter apprehended? No doubt the thoughts of all our forum members are with the families and friends of those involved.

| Centurion | Being a few hours north of there, I heard about the situation as soon as the news found out. Absolutly terrible incident, and he got less then he deserved. My condolences to the familys and friends of the killed and wounded officers.

| Tribunus Laticlavius | Oh well, they saved the community the cost of an endless trial, reviews and execution. the money saved should be donated to the fallen officer's family. Good riddance! |
