SZonian:
A gunman wearing body armor targeted two California police officers who were taking a break at a coffee shop in an ambush that failed when his gun malfunctioned, authorities said Monday.

Adam Powell, 41, appeared in the doorway of a Starbucks and "attempted to assassinate" the two officers on Sunday, Vallejo Police Chief Andrew Bidou said.

Powell targeted two Northern California police officers who were taking a break at a coffee shop in an ambush that was foiled when his gun malfunctioned, a police chief said Monday, Oct. 17, 2016. Powell, who was wearing body armor, fled when he could not get his weapon to fire, and the officers gave chase, shooting him three times, authorities said at a news conference. He is in critical but stable condition.

The officers were not injured because the battered weapon, its butt covered with duct tape or foil, appeared to jam. Powell of Suisan City was in critical condition after being shot by the officers during a foot chase.

There were some low-iq muttonheads telling me that being a cop was easy a few weeks ago.


The idiocy in this place runs rampant some days, unfortunately.
