MD...not sure if you heard but Tulare had two officers gunned down as well. One is at the hospital here in Fresno, the other is up at Standford. Both are very critical. Both shot with a shotgun during a traffic stop. Two brothers. Second officer got off at least one round and hit one of em. Both taken into custody. Hopefully you won't be having to travel down this way for another funeral.
There was over 4,000 officers there[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] some from as far away as Boise, Idaho, Reno, Nv., Nevada State Police, and down south[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Great show of force[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] To bad it takes a tragedy to get us all together[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

I can't believe his family wants him buried with full military honors. The Marine Corps I believe is refusing to do it. Family claims PTSD but he never saw combat. Never fired his weapon. He's just a piece of garbage. They should be burying him in the landfill.

We were talking about the shootings today. We heard they were also gang related[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Our prayers are out to them and their love ones[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

it's an insult to Marines to call this guy a marine. and i know nothing about it, other than what you guys posted.
it's so rare here for police to even draw their weapon, let alone die in the line of duty. all our recent shootings have been gang members doing each other. i thot in CA during a traffic stop, it's assumed the person has a gun and you never put yourself in that vulnerable of a position. what do i know. still a tragedy to see such a lack of respect for law enforcement (or any innocent person's life for that matter), anywhere.

As a Law Enforcement Officer, you approach every vehicle like that. But, unfortuanately, if you approached every car with your weapon drawn, the public out cry would be horrendous[sp] Because, even law abiding citizens get stopped[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]too. Even though you are aware it could happen, "WE" are always one second behind in drawing our weapon[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]The POS of society already made up their mind, on what they will do. Details on the shooting from down south are sketchy, so I won't comment on it. But, ours was an all out ambush. POS fires a round into the ground outside a store, runs inside, tells the clerk to call police, he was just shot at. So, now he's pretending to be a victim. When first officers arrive onscene, they do everything right[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Placement of vehicle, coverage, etc. When POS sees they arrived and looking around corner, he goes after them, flips his military poncho aside and pulls out his SKS, firing it in automatic. He or someone else, converted it. Officer gets hit several times and is pulled back by his trainee and another officer. Sgt. pulls up second later from another direction, POS hides behind a car, and then opens up on Sgt. as he is still getting out of his car. While laying on ground wounded, POS shoots him twice in the head[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] Then he terrorizes neighborhood for 3 hours until he engages a fire fight with fellow officers and is killed. The 2 officers shot, did return fire, but didn't hit there mark[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
Around here, it's not uncommon to pull our weapons multiple times during your shift. that can be for searches, felony car stops, robbery calls, etc. Then you can go for shifts without pulling it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] You just never know[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

As MD said, it's still sketchy. They are waiting to talk to both officers before they release who was the shooter. This is from Tues. morning's Fresno Bee (article Registration required)
Both were to be arraigned this morning on 2 counts ea. of attempted murder. Jesse Barbosa was the one who took a round and 3 hours later a few bites while hiding in the oleanders along Highway 99. Both held on $500,000 bail.

According to Tulare police, Jackson and Jones were on patrol about 3:05 a.m. when they stopped a maroon Nissan 300Z in the 2100 block of South Laspina Street, near the southeastern fringe of the city. The Barbosas were in the car, which was registered to Jesse Barbosa, although it wasn't clear who was driving or which brother fired the shotgun, police said.
Tulare police spokesman Lt. Jerry Breckinridge said Jackson walked toward the car on the driver's side and was hit by a shotgun blast as she approached the door.
Jones called on his radio that an officer was down and approached the Nissan. Breckinridge said what happened next wasn't clear, but that Jones shot one of the Barbosas and was shot himself.
