@taniwharugby makes my blood boil when Police get shot at and worse, killed.
Just gutted for the officer.
Please find them!!!

Terrible news.
It's probably not the time or place but I do wonder about the mindset of the people who were protesting the other week about some police units being armed. The reality is that for the most part we've got police who are just people next door and they're coming into contact with some real pieces of work armed with little more than their humanity.

They were chasing him around where my kids go to school, so ended up in lockdown with the kids.
Awful for the family of the police officer. Not PC, but hope they just shoot the prick.
in the kneecaps!

No one should go to work and not expect to make it home safely.
I guess we are lucky at least these are so rare, first instance since 2009 accoutring to the media.I'm pleasantly surprised by that stat. It feels more regular.

Yeah it is a reassuring stat but then any lose is terrible. I’d imagine other parts of the world it’s a daily occurrence.

@Kirwan @JC both your posts are kinda linked given the current environment.
I can certainly see this ending with the perpetrator being shot, probably dead (deservedly so) but I expect this will ignite some section of society to complain about our police response claiming they went out with the sole intention of killing him rather than apprehending for prison...

And they can go fuck themselves.
Like I said on the other thread, policing is a hard and dangerous job. Those that complain about stuff like that should walk a mile in their shoes.

The shooters only have themselves to blame if they are killed now

@Kirwan I dont disagree, but you know it will happen.
Yep, you are absolutely right.

Two people are being questioned by police after an officer was killed and another was injured in a shooting in Auckland.

@taniwharugby they don't appear to be the shooters
