This is going to sound awful but I blame this on america and how they are handling the MEXICAN illegals. Why do they get so my leeway? I mean....it's not fair to people like my grandparents who came here LEGALLY. They went through the proper channels to come to this great nation! So why are illegal mexicans (who many are criminals) getting a pass?! I know just in the past 2 or 3 years Wichita is being infested with them
Stay strong brother.
The police don t even know if he was an illegal. they even had him in custoday 2 times. He is dead, calling for his arrest or lynching or whatever is a little late. will we ever know why he shot the officer? will we ever know why he shot himself? probably not, just as we will never know why after being arrested twice, he was still on the streets.
LEARN TO READ PEOPLE the cop didnt die gosh.....illegals must be readin this
you people dont know this man.Just because they say is mexican doesnt mean he is illegal.there was a life changed and life lost, we should pray for those families. mexicans are not all bad people, they do the jobs the americans dont want or willing to do, they are here to support their families. i agree to send the ones back that cause problems.
I will tell you why we have so many illegals, because when you stop a van full of them and call ICE to tell them you have 15 illegals, they say they only come out for 20. If you say you have 10, they come out for 12. I reccommend that all officers, highway patrolmen and sheriff's deputy's who deal with ICE tell them you have 5 less than you do, then when they tell you that they only come out for the higher number, inform them you just found 5 more. Then pray you dont have a juvenile, or they wont come out at all. anonymous at 7:55, you are an idiot. Trust me, if KAKE is reporting that the officer was in the right, then they were. I would like to see how quick you are to stand up for the "suspust" (whatever that is) thug or hoodlum when you are the victim of a crime. People like you are part of the problem, stop being part of the problem and be part of the solution, get off the bench and apply if you can do it better, that is if you can pass the background check...
I didnt know the cop died. my prayers are with his family. hopefully this murderer gets the gas. (Editors note: The officer did not die. He is currently listed in serious condition. The suspect shot himself and died.)
Why are we dagradeing the man who susposedly shot the office? None of us were there so we cant say who the person in the wrong. Yes I do agree you shouln't shot any but were dont know what drove him to do it. We as a socity always assume that the office is always right when that is not the case. There have been many times that the office is wrong but nothing is ever said. Just that the suspust, thug, or hoodlum was in the worng.
Law Enforcement officers do not get enough credit for the kind of work they do. Especially WPD..just ask journalist Mark McCormick from the Wichita Eagle, who is always writing negatively about our police dept. Police Chief Norman Williams is one of the best Chiefs WPD has had and cares deeply for his fellow officers, and his community. It's sad that it takes an officer to get wounded for people to take notice and give "credit" for the work they do. These men and women have families and trust me, a day doesn't go by when they think to themselves...will I make it home to tonight? I urge the city to please respect our officers, because it's the kind of work they do that make us feel safe.
PLEASE READ THE ARTICLE AGAIN!It says he KILLED HIMSELF ,i sympathize with you on the illegals we have the running out our ears.we have one on death row , he and his gang murdered 2 teen girls back in the eighties and is still sitting there because they say he didn't speak to the mexican consulate .So to make a long story short he may get another stay.
Please do not post comments if you are TOO IGNORANT to even read the entire story. The man is DEAD. He cannot go to jail, be deported, given a life sentence, be executed, etc. HE IS DEAD!!!
THIS PERSON IS DEAD... YOU STUPID PEOPLE!!!
The city of wichita is wasting money on feeding this thug in Jail. He needs to be thrown in a mexican prison.
Illegal aliens are taking over. They need to set an example with this guy and throw him in prison for life.
These fine officers who are patrolling our streets dont get enough credit. People next time you see one of these public servants walk up to them and thank them
