Shoot the rescuer

2018-02-16 22:32:30.688151+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Faith City shooting investigation in "early stages". Gunman took 100 to 150 people hostage in a chapel, someone took the gun from him, police shot the guy who took the gun...

"The officers fired shots that struck the man," said [Amarillo Police Sergeant Brent] Barbee. "After some additional investigation, they've learned that the man that the gun may have taken the firearm away from the original suspect in the call. The man who originally had the gun has been taken into custody."

One of the difficulties of having multiple uncoordinated responders in hostage or active shooter situations.
