Wow. I'm having trouble getting my head around how this can happen, the type of people who would do such a thing.

This is a sad day. My heart goes out the the family of the officer, and I hope they catch the people responsible for this.

A witness reported "two quick bursts of gun fire" , "did not see another car leave the scene", The story reported " a car rolled up next to him at a stoplight", "semi automatic gunfire" , "numerous shell casings on the ground".

As fast as I think I can shoot, I cannot make a semi automatic pistol sound like a "burst".

Shell casing on the ground and not seeing a car leave the scene, to me is a shooter on foot.

Very very sad incident, my condolences to his family and friends.

A very troubling incident. Not sure if I have ever read of something like this outside of Mexico.

I smell, bad guy who is taking "revenge" on the SA LEOs. More shootings to come unless this bg went down in hail of fire.

This happened in Seattle in 2009 and again in Ankorage in 2010
My prayers and condolences to the LEO and his family ...

This is pathetic and pure cowardice! :mad5

Looks like they've arrested someone for this.
