Slightly reckless behavior from Ohio

[Forever_frost]

EAST CLEVELAND, OH -- Two unarmed suspects were slain by police officers after a 25-minute pursuit. At the conclusion of the chase, which included 62 police vehicles, 13 officers drew their weapons and unloaded at least 137 rounds in to the suspects' Chevy Malibu. The suspects had no weapons, and not one single officer reported seeing a weapon. The police were so violent and so reckless that they even shot up their own cruisers with friendly fire.

The police supervisor was only aware of 3 patrol cars pursuing the suspects. The remaining 59 had no authorization to join the chase, and ignored dispatch's instructions to terminate pursuit.

One officer climbed on top of the suspects' vehicle and shot 49 rounds into the occupants.

"I need more ammo!!"

They wont be doing that again.

Evidently when they didn't find a gun in the car, they sent out the dive teams to every body of water along the way and walked the ditches with metal detectors

ban cops

Have to love that they shot up their own cars. Because they couldn't control their triggers, taxpayers now have to repair those cars.

Guess that'll teach them to stop next lifetime.

Is this new? I remember making a "they were still mad about LeBron leaving" comment on something similar.

I hope those officers get time off with pay, like they deserve.

Behind bars...

Naah man. They don't deserve that, Eric's post was far more reasonable and fair.

Sounds like those guys watched too many movies.


I guess they were right about the Hollywood and video game influence.

The one cop on top of the squad car dumped 50 rounds into the car and said he never fired a weapon in Iraq but absolutely felt like dumping several magazines into the car in front of him

INCREDIBLE!! Were those cops on crack?
