I think that LAPD has had two shootings in the last two days... looks like it might be a busy weekend for LAPD! I hope all LEO stay safe and all go home at night/in the morning to their families! At the end of the shift, that is most important. My thoughts go out to the officers that had to deal with that, even though it looks justified. I know what comes behind an event like this for the officers, and it is still stressful.

He broke the first rule of self-preservation - don’t point guns at police officers, it can have life altering effects….like killing you. At least the taxpayers will not have to pay for his medical care or room and board at the Graybar Hotel.

They will show a picture of him when he was 13, just an innocent young man.......
That’s the lying ass media for you. They’ll show him as a 9 year old Cub Scout helping some old woman across the street.

This was Chief McDonnell’s first big incident since he took the helm. He did a good job stating it as it is instead of some bs touchy feely crap.


"The suspect in the driveway pulled out two guns - one in each hand - and opened fire on the officers," McDonnell said. "Officers returned fire, striking the suspect."

"The suspect was on the ground, the officers went to his location, secured the firearms, administered aid to him, requested a paramedic ambulance who responded and transported the suspect to a local hospital."

McDonnell says from shell casings on the ground near the suspect it appears he fired his weapons multiple times. Officers also fired multiple rounds.


"It was very quick," said McDonnell, who was just appointed the city's police chief earlier this month. "Thank God no officers were injured during this. This shows just what our officers are facing out there every day - confronting a suspect who's gonna do what they gotta do to try to get away."

I’ve known the chief for 25 years great guy. I am so happy for him. He should’ve got the job and said more that was six or seven years of complete waste of time. Worthless.

This was an outstanding appointment. You can always judge a book by its cover. She made the right decision. She’s very very pro local law enforcement. You’d never know it by looking at her, but I have some inside scoop. She really cares about the department wants to see crime reduction my hat is off to her. . I have the chiefs personal cell, great guy. We talk.

You can only do so much due to the politics, but he will always try to do the right thing as especially for the men and women of the department. He likes seeing people go to jail!

Glad the cops are safe.
Thanksgiving...I know it sounds crazy but we used to get busy as heck on Turkey Day.
Quiet in the morning early afternoon, as people arrive at the homes of others whom they really don't like, but plan to spend the day with.
Drinking commences.
Food. Sometimes.
More drinking...
It usually kicked off about 7pm.
Over the years we had everything from people shooting each other, to a guy taking his life at the dinner table., to suicide by cop.
From what I hear things have not changed.

Indeed. I’ve known him since 90 or 91, when he first made sergeant at Southeast Division. Truly a humble and gracious man, the department is lucky to have him. Props to Mayor Bass for picking him, he was by far the most talented and qualified candidate.
