Send Prayers to Officers in Rapid City
Law Enforcement shooting in Rapid City today. One officer dead, two wounded. Suspect in custody.
Ryan was a great guy. He will be missed. Too bad the shitbag shooter has survived...so far.
They still haven't released the name of the third officer shot, there's a guy on the force I used to work with. I haven't seen him around for a while, but that don't mean anything. He's a good kid and I pray he's not the unnamed third officer involved.
Oz, when you get a chance can you post an update ?
Cant really say more than the press release says, till NOK is notified.
Ryan McCandless KIA
Nick Armstrong, wounded/critical
3rd PD officer, cant release the name till NOK, wounded, stable
Shitbag, wounded, hopefully suffering.
This shooting came about during a subject stop of 4 people. Apparantly, none of the officers were able to call for help due to wounds (not confirmed). Bystanders aided fallen officers till units arrived.
Suspect who shot my brothers/friends has died. At least there is some justice.

Any news on the other shitbags? They're just as guilty.
Prayers sent.
This really gets my blood boiling....
Hanging or a ride on "old sparky" is much too good for these puke perps.
Nick passed away.

Bismarck had their first KIA a month ago. Sad stuff, my thoughts and prayers to those affected. :(
Our suspect looked healthy (more or less) in the released mugshot, looked a lot worse in court.... Someone beat the stuffing out of him.... Not complaining, though. In fact, if it were an inmate, I say said inmate should get early release for meritorious conduct!!
Stay safe, LEO's. Shoot to kill these scumbags. Send the world a message; Don't F- with the Dakotas, we don't fold as easily as Cali.
