The latest I heard here in Lubbock, second sniper on south east side of home touched of first round. That was the round that killed Officer Cox.

Robinson settled out of court. Came out well on the $. Chief of police was fired. Commanding officer was demoted. Officer that fired fatal shot was fired and will file suit if not already for wrongful termination.

I want to know what brought this to a level of having SWAT at the scene. The last I heard burning funiture in not a capital offense.

It is a big mess and hopefully will be an issue for the next local elections.
