2 AK Officers fatally shot
ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- Two police officers were fatally shot in a tiny Native village in southeast Alaska and authorities were in a standoff Sunday with the suspect, local officials said.
Bob Prunella, acting Hoonah city administrator, said officers Tony Wallace and Matt Tokuoka died after the shooting late Saturday. He said he didn't know what led to the shooting.
Tokuoka was off-duty, and he and his wife and two children had left the home of his father-in-law, George Martin, moments before the shooting, Martin said.
Martin said he heard two shots, which were directed at Wallace, who was on-duty. The shots hit Wallace, Martin said.
Tokuoka told his wife and children to get away from the site, and then he was shot as well, Martin said.

Two Alaska police officers killed - CNN.com"We heard a gunshot and one of my co-workers looked out the window and he saw one policeman down," witness Dirk Knehr told the television station. "He'd been shot, and another policeman was trying to drag him away and the suspect shot him twice. And then he just took off."That which does not kill me, better start fucking running.

"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.
