OT Prayers
 

Yesterday in Margaretville, NY, a NYS Trooper pulled over a van and the drive of the van shot the trooper. He was un hurt due to a flak vest.

The van driver dumped the van and a man hunt ensued. So far two more Troopers ahve been shot, one fatally.

Please pray for our State Troopers and their familise and pray they get this shooter into custody soon with no more bloodshed.

Prayers being sent.
This happened to a trooper when I was living in Florida too. Stopped a car for a routine traffic stop....tail light out. The driver shot the trooper as he came up to the vehicle. Just so sad what the world is becoming.

Sending prayers to all those put in harms way while protecting us...
((((hugs))))

I hope they catch him fast, so no one else is put in harms way....

Prayers said for the State troopers & their families. Also that the driver will be captured soon so that our roads will be safer soon.

sending prayers for your troopers & mine...

prayers, k

praying for all the state troopers and their families and a little prayer for you too elana, you are so caring.

Well, for those who are interested it looks like the shooter is dead and the house he was hiding in was half burned down by a smoke bomb thrown in to get him to come out.

I suspect they will find he died of "other causes" well before the fire started.

The house was owned by weekenders.
Sad thing is I may have been acquainted with a member of the slain Trooper's family (years ago).

I just don't understand it when these types of things happen.

Sending prayers for all those impacted by this tragedy.
