Praise the Lord and Pass the ammunition!

MIAMI - A fugitive gunman accused of killing a Florida sheriff’s deputy was shot 68 times by SWAT team officers who found him hiding in the woods, according to autopsy results. Polk County Sheriff’s Deputy Williams 39, was “executed” after Angilo Freeland 27, was pulled over in a routine traffic stop on Thursday. Deputy Williams, was shot eight times—one bullet fired at close range behind the deputy’s right ear and another in his right temple. Another deputy was wounded and a police dog killed. Police fired 110 shots at Freeland, the target of a massive manhunt in central Florida following the shooting death of the deputy.
“That’s all the bullets we had, or we would have shot him more,” Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd told the Orlando Sentinel newspaper.


Sometimes words fail me. Amen, Sheriff. Amen
