The officer, Andrew Baker, was hit during an exchange of gunfire with a man in Stanton Heights, the same neighborhood where three officers were killed in 2009"

Make sure you wear your vest.!!!
Glad the vest worked! :thumb:
ALWAYS NICE TO HEAR A STORY OF THE GOOD GUYS GOING HOME AND THE BAD GUY GOING TO HOSPITAL, RIGHT BEFORE HIS TRIP TO JAIL.
Update on this story. Dirtbag threatened his wife and 1y.o. baby and she convinced him to leave, he said he's going to shoot a cop...He did, Officer Baker was first to encounter dirtbag and was shot at 4 times still seated in his patrol car. 1 round hit the top of his vest. He got out and shot back!!!
Glad he was wearing his vest.. I never leave home w/o it.
Sure wish these article would read more like this...
Just my opinion. Excellent news though.Quote:
"Pittsburgh police are breathing a sigh of relief after an officer shot early this morning escaped virtually unscathed, it was not reported whether the officer was wearing his vest.
Glad he's alright. Warrior mentality at its best.
