Rockford Police officer shot while in squad car, saved by ballistic vest

[Fledermaus]

Police say around 1:00 a.m. Thursday, officers were in the area of S. 3rd and Pope Streets in Rockford when one shot rang out from close range. Police say the bullet went through the passenger side door of the squad car and struck the officer. That officer reported feeling pain on his side.

The bullet was found on the floorboard of the car and did not penetrate the vest. The officer was checked out at an area hospital as a precaution, otherwise no other injuries were reported.

The sad thing is that the "liberal" media instill hatred of the cops in some people.

Last year's fawning coverage of the BLM marches was nauseating.

Oh, yes, a coward did that.

All predators, of course, are cowards.

For example, they will sucker punch some little old Asian lady but they are scared to death of other gang members.

It's a good thing nobody ever shot cops before the liberal media existed.

This has nothing to do with BLM.

One cockroach did a bad thing.

To a certain mindset, BLM marchers are all armed, slavering at the mouth, and looking for where the white women are at.

Yes, people wanting the police to act with professionalism and not thugs who arrest people for no reason and then get angry when they're filmed doing so.

This act was done by someone who needs to be in prison but to suggest it has anything to do with so called liberal media is moronic and wrong.

Rockford has turned to shit over the years. It used to be a decent escape from Chicago, a place with good jobs and low costs. Now...it's drug infested and unemployment is through the roof (9%), even in these times of low unemployment.
