some citizens found out the hard way that protect and serve has repercussions they'd prefer not to experience as bullets from police weapons came thru their homes while the cops were busy shooting a suspect;
Madison Heights, MI — When police officers shoot and kill unarmed people, most Americans simply dismiss it, claiming that the person likely deserved it and they should have just complied. It is hard to ignore it, however, when bullets that were aimed at that unarmed person come flying into your home at 2 a.m.
For residents in the Madison Oaks Community, that is exactly what happened as police shot and killed a suspected burglar in front of their homes — while also shooting those homes.
According to police, they were chasing a burglary suspect who claimed he was not going back to jail. When they cornered him at the Knights Inn motel, near the Madison Oaks Community, the suspect attempted to flee, ramming police cars in the process.
“They knew who he was, they knew his background, they knew he was a dangerous criminal,” said Warren Police Commissioner Bill Dwyer. “He had statements that he would not go back to prison, which meant to us he would use any type of force necessary to not be arrested.”
Because police officers seem utterly incapable of stepping to the side to get out of the way of a vehicle, opting for the much safer arrest down the road, officers stood their ground and used deadly force instead. When the suspect rammed their cars, multiple cops opened fire on his vehicle, with obvious reckless disregard for the dozens of homes behind their target.
“I woke up to like, yelling and shouting,” Amanda Freeland told FOX 2. Freeland’s home is one of several of the mobile homes that had bullets come flying into them in the middle of the night.........read and watch more.....
