Off-Duty Texas Officer Fatally Shoots Robbery Suspect
Story by click2houston.com



An off-duty Richmond police officer fatally shot a robbery suspect Tuesday morning after she said three men tried to rob her in the parking lot of a Jersey Village apartment complex, police told KPRC Local 2.

Two of three robbery suspects were hit when the off-duty officer opened fire at about 7:06 a.m. on Pleasant Colony Drive near Steepleway Boulevard.

Emergency workers pronounced one of the suspects shot dead at the scene. The other suspect who was shot was taken to a hospital in an unknown condition.

Officers with the Jersey Village Police Department arrested a third suspect who was hiding in some nearby bushes.

Investigators said the off-duty officer works for the Richmond Police Department but was not in uniform when the shooting happened.

Authorities have not said if the off-duty officer was injured during the incident.

The identities of the people involved have not been released.

It would've been a perfect story if it was three out of three.

One of my buddies had his house broken into and burglarized between 7-9am.


Wonder if the cop told the robbers to "get up!"
