Signs That The World Is Coming To An End in 2010

from dcist.com
"The Post is reporting that an off-duty Metropolitan Police officer shot a man who was attempting to rob him at a gas station in Northeast early this morning.

A police spokesperson told the paper the shooting took place at around 12:30 a.m. at 905 Brentwood Rd. NE, though it seems like the gas station in question actually has to be the Lowest Price Gas Station at 925 Brentwood Rd. NE, as no gas station appears to be listed at the 905 address. The robbery suspect is in critical condition.

UPDATE: WJLA is reporting that the suspect has died. They also say that the suspect's gun was recovered, and that police believe he also tried to rob the gas station. Images captured by the news station confirm that it was indeed the Lowest Price Gas Station at 925 Brentwood Rd. NE."

My issue is this... the jake was in uniform. What grade of "cooked cocaine" makes you rob a uniformed cop? Second question, do y'all really believe the robbery attempt at all? Movies have taught me that a police report is trustworthy as the dead perp it implicates. Thank god for NoVA!
