The news said that four others had been shot, but the Greenfield police is only seven officers, so some of the others might have been from surrounding towns (Exeter or others) who were participating in the operation.

The poor Chief was slated to retire NEXT WEEK. That's just awful.

The local news is saying that the shooter guy is roid raging, and may not even be in the house (helo up above with IR night vision looking for him).

I wonder why the officers were not (I assume) wearing bullet-proof vests Chemisse Apr 2012 #18

I do not know the answer to that either. MADem Apr 2012 #19

And the officer who died was shot in the chest as well. Chemisse Apr 2012 #20

I still haven't heard anything more on it--the news has been about the funerals, lately. nt MADem Apr 2012 #21
