A man walks up to a Los Angeles County squad car sitting at a rail station in Compton about 7 p.m. and shoots both officers inside, out of the blue. Some witnesses celebrate, with one shouting, “No justice, no peace!” as one cop struggles to stand.
As the officers lay fighting for their lives in St. Francis Medical Center, a group of protesters blocks the entrance and exit to the emergency room, some yelling, “We hope they die!”
Will the national “protest” movement wake up after Saturday night’s insanity?
Happily, the two officers — a mother, 31, and a man, 24, both on the job just over a year — are now expected to recover.
