Officer Injured by Fleeing Suspect
This is my Department. Send some prayers for the officer if you will.http://www.wapt.com/news/19888007/detail.html
RIDGELAND, Miss. -- Police say a shoplifting suspect who was shot by Ridgeland police has died.
Derrick Watkins, 19, of Jackson, died Sunday night at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, police said.
A Ridgeland police officer suffered a broken leg after he was hit by a car allegedly driven by Watkins, officials said. His leg is in a cast, but he has been released from Baptist Medical Center, Lt. John Neal said. The officer's name has not been released.
Ridgeland police officers shot Watkins at about 7:30 p.m. Sunday as he tried to drive out of Wal-Mart's parking lot, officials said. Watkins then crossed the median on County Line Road and crashed his car near Toys "R" Us.
Police Chief Jimmy Houston said officers shot Watkins in self-defense.*************************"It wouldn't take much for me to up and run...to another life somewhere in the sun."

SI VIS PACEM PARA BELLUM-Ex-Sheriff Martin Howe to Will Kane in "High Noon"
"It's a great life. You risk your skin catching killers and the juries turn them loose so they can come back and shoot at you again. If your honest , your poor your whole life. And , In the end , you wind up dying all alone on some dirty street. For what? For nothing. For a tin star."
Far from being a handicap to command, compassion is the measure of it. For unless one values the lives of his soldiers and is tormented by their ordeals , he is unfit to command.
-General Omar Bradley, United States Army

Police Officers put themselves at risk for strangers every day. Some do not make it home to their families. Next time you think of saying something negative about the police, remember...YOU are one of the strangers.
