An on-duty Tallahassee Police Department officer was killed when his patrol vehicle collided with a car driven by an attempted homicide suspect fleeing the police at around 1:30 a.m. Wednesday.
The officer has been identified by the Florida Police Benevolent Association Big Bend chapter as a 34-year-old man who had been on the Tallahassee police force for four years. He previously had served at Wilton Manors Police Department in Broward County, according to a statement by Richard Murphy, president of the chapter, which represents nearly 500 law enforcement officers.
“This tragic loss is a painful reminder that law enforcement officers are often victims of violent criminal acts and they put their lives at risk on a daily basis to serve and protect others,” Murphy said.
“All of us at the PBA extend our deepest condolences to the officer’s family, friends, and fellow officers. We will do all that we can to support them during this painful time.”
At the request of the family, the PBA is not releasing the name of the officer, a spokesperson said.
WASHINGTON, DC- Police officers across the country know exactly how Greg Gutfeld felt Tuesday night, watching Joe Biden act like he actually supports police officers. Gutfeld laid into Biden, referring to him as a “jackass” after his State of Confusion address, in which Biden said:
“We should all agree: The answer is not to defund the police,” Biden said. “It’s to fund the police. Fund them. Fund them! Fund them with the resources and training they need to protect our communities.”
So the NY Slimes, like the rest of the Fake News Marxist media, is still focused on police misconduct as Rome burns and chaos reigns in the street. Instead of focusing on the bloody catastrophic results of their defund police / anti-law and order agenda they yet again want the public to believe it is police misconduct that fuels criminality. More divide and conquer tactics. They sit silent on Soros funded DA’s releasing violent thugs back into the street to continue their rampages of violence and want you to focus on non-existent rampant abuse by police officers as the issue of our time.
No NY Slimes. We know you and your leftist cop hating agenda. A better topic for a real journalist to cover would be the handcuffing of police. No longer able to risk being proactive and stopping violence and crime, they must sit back and just document the carnage. If the offender is arrested after it matters little as Marxist DAs release them with little or no bail. Today’s police must see no evil and hear no evil, because of the legal, financial, and departmental punishments for making a mistake or “perceived” inappropriate action.
I can’t blame them. Your silence on the real issues of rising crime and chaos is evidence of your approval of the deadly progress of the agenda you and other leftists have been pushing for decades. A means to the end……..
