Boy Attempts to Carjack Uniformed, Off Duty Officer

With all the officer killings of late, a better headline would have been" Officer kills suspect attempting to carjack her vehicle at gun point".

Great job Officer Wood. I hope all five teenage POS face adult sentences and recieve the max.

Officer safe good ending.

Way to go Sister! Great collar. Stupid damn kids playing with fire. Lucky you didn't shoot his sorry littloe butt! I see future inmates of the Penn prison system.

Great job by the Officer!! I can only imagine if it were not a cop, but instead a civilian, male or female, I'm sure the outcome would have been a lot different.

Maugwa, I could not have said it any better. I too play this scenario over in my head, and the out come is with the POS being DRT (Dead Right There)!!
One day I was sitting in my Hummer waiting for the light to change, and some POS walked up to my passenger side door and pulls on the handle, but the door was locked. I put my tinted windows down, and he got a close up look at the business end of my Springfield Armory Micro Compact .45. My man was "lost" and needed directions. I told him if he did not walk away, I'd show him where the Morgue was. Needless to say, he ran. Some People, I'll tell ya.

It's gratifying to hear cases like this involving female officers. Because sometimes they get a bad rap from those that are less experienced or trained. And its really not the case, in this country we have some of the toughest women LEO's on the planet. Down here on my turf, you don't want to mess with the women in blue or you will match the color. Good job PPD officer wood!!

I hope the judge isn't going to slap them on their hands and send them back to their parents. Why that would be "cruel and unusual punishment."
