Exclamation Urgent Prayer Request

I just received word from a friend that there was an officer involved shooting at his department moments ago. The officer was shot in the head while finishing a traffic stop. At this time, he's not expected to survive. I'm asking for all that will, please pray for the officer, his family and all involved. To my brothers still serving in Police Departments across the country, it's time to ratchet up personal survival skills. These nuts are going to come out of the wood work for a while, work smart!

Prayers sent to the officer and his family. Lots of nut jobs out there that have absolutely no respect or regards for LEOs. Keith

I guess it's 'good' that the officer didn't linger on and suffer forever, and I guess it's 'good' the suspect has been detained, but 'good' somehow just doesn't fit here.

I agree, glad they have him, but not glad for the family. Prayers sent.

Very sad to hear this. Thoughts, prayers from here Rick. My condolences to his family and department.

While I would never condone breaking the law, I do believe it is time to start setting examples and sending messages.

Sooy about this. Praying for the family, and for other officers around the country.

What's going on these days?
