    2 Mississippi officers fatally shot; 3 suspects arrested


    http://wane.com/2015/05/10/2-mississ...ects-arrested/

    HATTIESBURG, Miss. (AP) — Two police officers were fatally shot during a traffic stop in the southern Mississippi city of Hattiesburg, prompting a statewide manhunt early Sunday for two suspects, authorities said.

    Warren Strain, a spokesman for the Mississippi Department of Public Safety, said a Hattiesburg officer had stopped a 2000 Gold Cadillac Escalade about 8:30 p.m. CDT Saturday, a second officer arrived to help him and shots were fired. Those were reported to be the first deaths on the Hattiesburg police force in three decades.



    Strain told The Associated Press by phone early Sunday that the shooting occurred near an area of apartment houses and that officers told people immediately afterward to take shelter while they searched for two suspects.

    Three people have been arrested, including 29-year-old Marvin Banks and 22-year-old Joanie Calloway, who have each been charged with two counts of capital murder. Banks’ 26-year-old brother, Curtis Banks, has been charged with two counts of accessory after the fact of capital murder.

    A Hattiesburg Police Department spokesman, Lt. Jon Traxler, told The AP the officers who died were 34-year-old Benjamin Deen and 25-year-old Liquori Tate. Local reports identified Deen as a past department “Officer of the Year” and Tate as a newcomer to the force. Strain said both officers died of their injuries at a hospital.

    “All I know right now is that there was a traffic stop and someone started shooting at them and both of the officers were struck,” Traxler said. He said he didn’t know how many shots were fired, or exactly by whom, adding that was now part of the investigation.

    After the shooting, law enforcement agents swarmed the area and surrounding blocks. Many emergency vehicles, their lights flashing, could be seen in an area of apartments near the shooting scene.

    Specifics of why the vehicle was stopped and why shooting broke out remained unclear, Strain said. Strain said he also didn’t have further details of the officers’ actions when the shots erupted.

    He said the state’s chief law enforcement agency, the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation, had taken up the probe of the shooting.

    Hattiesburg Mayor Johnny DuPree told The Jackson Clarion-Ledger he lamented the deaths.

    “The men and women who go out every day to protect us, the men and woman who go out every day to make sure that we’re safe, they were turned on (Saturday) night,” DuPree said outside Forrest General Hospital in Hattiesburg, where the officers were taken.

    The newspaper reported these are the first Hattiesburg officers to die in the line of duty in 30 years. It said Tate was a recent police academy graduate while Deen was a K-9 officer who had been honored as the department’s “Officer of the Year” in 2012.

    A call to DuPree’s office for further comment wasn’t returned early Sunday.

    Hattiesburg resident Tamika Mills told The Clarion-Ledger that bystanders came upon the officers on the ground, and that one of the officers asked “… ‘Am I dying? I know I’m dying. Just hand me my walkie-talkie.'” Mills told the paper, that seeing the officers down was “shocking and heartbreaking.”

    tate, 25, was a recent graduate from the police academy. He posted on his facebook page that he graduated june 11.
    june 11??

    Both men have multiple arrests for weapons and gun charges, and both have felony convictions.
    But yet they were released or bailed out?? Just imagine if they were in prison for life, where they belonged to begin with. Two men would still be living.

    Three charged in Mississippi police murder
    — but does this case mean it’s all-out war?


    Written by Michele Hickford, Editor-in-Chief on May 10, 2015


    The Daily Mail reports that “a law enforcement official says three people have been arrested and two of them have been charged with capital murder in the fatal shootings of two Mississippi police officers during a weekend traffic stop in Hattiesburg.”

    “Warren Strain, a spokesman for the Mississippi Department of Public Safety, tells The Associated Press that 29-year-old Marvin Banks and 22-year-old Joanie Calloway have each been charged with two counts of capital murder, and Banks’ 26-year-old brother, Curtis Banks, has been charged with two counts of accessory after the fact of capital murder.”






    Officers Benjamin Deen, 34, and Liquori Tate, 25 were shot and killed Saturday night in Hattiesburg during a routine traffic stop. They were discovered by Hattiesburg residents who called 911 after finding the stricken officers on the ground.

    But there’s a disturbing new pattern emerging with these attacks.

    Deen was white; Tate was black.

    No longer can either “side” call these murders racially motivated. Now it appears to be an attack on our uniformed law enforcement as a whole. After all, the six officers now facing questionable charges in the death of Freddie Gray are evenly split racially.

    Sadly, our nation is still violently split along color lines – except now the color under attack is blue.

    At New York officer's funeral, police reflect on tough time

    Associated Press - FRANK ELTMAN and MICHAEL BALSAMO, Associated Press 1 day ago



    SEAFORD, N.Y. (AP) — Thousands of police from around the country came together at a slain New York City officer's funeral on Friday, mixing grief with calls for respect at a time when law enforcement is being deeply scrutinized.


    Busloads of officers arrived from as far as California, Louisiana, and Chicago to line the streets on Long Island outside Officer Brian Moore's funeral. Only five months earlier, the New York Police Department mourned two other offices who were killed in an ambush by a gunman who said he wanted revenge for police killings of civilians.

    "Brian's death comes at a time of great challenge" for officers nationwide, who are "increasingly bearing the brunt of loud criticism," Police Commissioner William Bratton said.

    "What is lost in the shouting and the rhetoric is the context of what we do," said Bratton, his voice cracking as he posthumously promoted the 25-year-old Moore to the rank of detective. "What is lost is the way we already work together, the ways we get it right. ... What is lost is that public safety is a shared responsibility."

    Moore died Monday, two days after he was shot in Queens. He and his partner were in street clothes in an unmarked car and were stopping a man suspected of carrying a handgun when the suspect shot him in the head.


    Moore's death came amid a national debate about policing, race and deadly force following the recent killings of unarmed black men by officers in New York; Ferguson, Missouri; North Charleston, South Carolina, and elsewhere.

    Amid the outcry, New York City Officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu, were killed in their patrol car in December. The man who gunned them down had boasted online that he would kill police in revenge for the chokehold death of Eric Garner on Staten Island and the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson.

    Liu's relatives were among the mourners at Moore's funeral, which was guarded by snipers on the roof of a nearby elementary school as a police helicopter hovered in the three-mile no-fly zone authorities imposed overhead.

    Detective Omar Daza-Quiroz, 33, traveled from Oakland, California, to stand with his colleagues — and stand for law enforcement.

    "Right now, it's a tough time in law enforcement," he said. "Sometimes people forget we are human and that we have lives."

    Moore was the son, nephew and cousin of NYPD officers, and two other cousins serve on Long Island. Moore was so determined to follow them that he took the police entrance exam at 17 and "devoted his whole being to the job," Mayor Bill de Blasio said.

    After having to take a few weeks off for medical leave recently, Moore "counted the minutes" until he could return to work, and made a gun arrest his second day back — only a few days before he himself was shot, de Blasio said.

    At Ramos' and Liu's funerals, hundreds of officers turned their backs to the mayor in a searing sign of disrespect. Police union leaders had said de Blasio had helped foster an anti-NYPD sentiment by allowing protesters to march through the city's streets after a grand jury decided not to indict an officer in Garner's death.

    An uneasy truce between de Blasio and the police eventually settled in after some police union infighting, a public backlash to a NYPD job slowdown and a series of City Hall investments in the police department. There has been no similar sign of tensions in the wake of Moore's death, and no backs were turned on de Blasio Friday.

    De Blasio's "words are measured and careful to know that there's support, and that's important," said Patrolmen's Benevolent Association President Patrick Lynch, who once said de Blasio had "blood on his hands" after Liu's and Ramos' deaths.

    Moore had been on the force for only a handful of years, but he had already built up a record of more than 150 arrests and had earned meritorious service medals. His posthumous promotion — common practice when New York officers die in the line of duty — will provide additional death benefits for his family.

    The young officer "was the man who walked in the room and made you laugh," he said, but on the street, "he was serious about his work."

    The suspect in Moore's killing, Demetrius Blackwell, faces charges including murder, attempted murder and other crimes. He is being held without bail and has not entered a plea. His attorney has denied the charges.

    This is a 25 year old young man who I never met, but he is my Brother..... my Brother in Blue.

    His life mattered. Officer Liquori Tate and Officer Benjamin Deen, both of the Hattiesburg, Mississippi Police Department died tonight while most of you slept in peace, safe in your homes because of men like these two brave heroes.

    Officer Tate, from what I gather, had only been a Police Officer for less than year. His Facebook page shows a handsome, smiling young man, dedicated to his younger siblings and family, just setting out in life having achieved his dream.

    For this man, who happens to be black, there will be no outcry from the media. No fiery speeches from the opportunistic and self-serving "Reverend" Al "the race baiter" Sharpton. Certainly no response from the guy in Washington who sees fit to send his minions to the funeral of convicted felons, but not a single representative to honor a fallen hero who died protecting the citizens from the very monsters he supports.

    And, not one of the "million Mom's" who plan to march on Washington to whine about Freddie Gray, Michael Smith and other felons who died as a result of the violent choices they consciously made in breaking the law repeatedly, will even know or care about Liquori Tate and Ben Deen.

    These fools will scream racism and defend the two Brothers who murdered these Officers, yet will riot if the killers go down in a hail of gunfire as they continue to resist arrest; no grasp of the concept of right vs wrong.

    No, these activists and community organizers will exhibit the worst kind of prejudice that exists. They vilify the guardians of peace because they/we, wear/wore blue, and green and tan.

    Law abiding lives matter. Blue lives matter. LIQUORI TATE MATTERED!!!!!

    RIP Brother. Another senseless loss of two American heroes.



    Please friends...share this. Let it go "viral". End the anti-police madness and show this nation that this man and his partner did not die in vain. Make his life matter. PLEASE SHARE THIS!!! Thank you

    WAR ON COPS: 3rd White Cop Shot Dead THIS WEEK…
    No Buildings Burned

    May 28, 2015


    Our nation’s police officers are under attack. Between last week and this week, three police officers have been gunned down in cold blood. Yet there are no protests. No buildings are being looted. The president isn’t saying that one of those officers could be his son.

    Officer Gregg Benner, a Rio Rancho, N.M., police officer, was shot on Monday night. The 49-year-old Air Force veteran had been with the police department almost four years. He was survived by his wife and five adult children. His killer has been brought to justice.

    Officer Kerrie Orozco was murdered in Omaha, Neb., on Wednesday by Marcus D. Wheeler, a 26 year-old black male. Wheeler was killed during the shootout with Orozco.

    And on Sunday, Officer James Bennett Jr. was shot and killed in his patrol car in New Orleans. A manhunt is underway for his killer (H/T The Gateway Pundit).

    Three unnecessary deaths all within a week of one another. Three lives cut short, yet no one from our government seems to care. This is disgusting.

    All across the country, police officers are under attack by the very criminals they are trying to protect us from. Killing a cop used to be a line that almost no one would cross. Now, it seems like every other day we read about another officer down.

    President Barack Obama, Al Sharpton, and the rest of their race-baiting ilk are directly responsible for these atrocities. Through their efforts to criminalize the police force, they have created an open season on police officers.

    Police officers are out there every day trying to keep us safe. They aren’t perfect. None of us are. However, they represent law and order in this country, and when you attack them, you are attacking everything this country is built upon.

    Yet there have been no mass protests. There have been no riots demanding justice for these slain officers. It’s up to us to remember the fallen. Let us spread their names everywhere, so that all can remember them.

    Their names were Gregg Benner, Kerrie Orozco, and James Bennett, Jr. Spread these names everywhere. People need to know and remember.

    Oologah Officer Shot During Pursuit, Police Search For Suspect
    Posted: May 28, 2015 6:40 PM CDT
    Updated: May 28, 2015 10:49 PM CDT


    NOWATA, Oklahoma - Several law enforcement agencies are investigating after an officer was shot during a pursuit on Highway 169 north of Nowata Thursday evening.

    According to Trooper Dwight Durant with the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, an Oologah police car was in pursuit of a vehicle containing three people, when the officer was shot in the head and his car ran off the highway and rolled over.

    We're told the pursuit started when the officer attempted to pull over the vehicle.

    The crash happened about eight miles south of the Kansas state line.

    A medical helicopter flew him to a hospital. Sources told us he was awake and stable and the bullet only grazed him. The name of the officer has not been released.

    Other agencies joined the pursuit, according to Durant. He said the suspects abandoned a black SUV after stop sticks were put out, then they carjacked another vehicle and shot an elderly man inside in the neck. We don't know that person's condition.

    According to the trooper, two of the suspects - a male and female - were caught while the third, described as a Hispanic male in a white shirt, continued into Kansas.

    Durant said officers lost track of the third suspect when he ran into the woods.

    Law enforcement shut down Highway 169 near the Liberty, Kansas exit as they searched for the suspect. They've also shut down the highway where the officer was shot as they processed the crime scene.

    Law enforcement set up a perimeter of about one-square mile in the Coffeyville area where gunfire was exchanged. Officers focused on a house in the area where they believed the suspect may have been hiding but was not located.

    The mayor of Liberty, Kansas, Brad Allen, contacted News On 6 and said the search area is about a mile east of the city and that the family that lives in the home was not there at the time of the search. He said they are safe at a neighbor's home.

    According to Durant, officers found body armor and assault rifles left behind in the black SUV abandoned by the suspects.

    COFFEYVILLE, Kan. — A manhunt was underway in Kansas late Thursday for a man authorities say was involved in the shooting of an Oologah, Oklahoma, police officer and a motorist in northeastern Oklahoma.

    The events began Thursday evening when a Talala, Oklahoma, police officer tried to stop a Chevrolet Tahoe occupied by three people in Rogers County and asked for backup from Oologah police, said Wade Lamb, South Coffeyville police chief. The sport utility vehicle then sped away, heading north on U.S. 169 toward Kansas, Lamb said.

    Between Nowata and South Coffeyville, Oklahoma, someone in the vehicle opened fire on a pursuing Oologah police cruiser and shot the officer in the head, Oklahoma Highway Patrol Trooper Dwight Durant said.

    The police car then crashed upside down in a ditch on the west side of U.S. 169, Durant said.

    The officer was awake when he was put into a medical helicopter to be flown to St. John Medical Center in Tulsa, Durant said. His name and further information on his condition were not released Thursday night.

    In South Coffeyville, officers used stop sticks to blow out the Tahoe’s tires, but the vehicle continued for at least another mile before stopping, Lamb said. The three occupants bailed out, and two were taken into custody there.

    Authorities found body armor and an assault rifle inside the abandoned vehicle, the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office said.

    The third person who ran from the SUV shot another driver and carjacked that motorist’s vehicle to get away, Lamb said. That victim’s condition was unknown Thursday night.

    The fleeing man then drove the hijacked car to Liberty, where he crashed the vehicle and left on foot. Authorities from multiple law enforcement agencies set up a perimeter and were searching for the man into the night Thursday, Lamb said.

    The manhunt had focused on a house that was surrounded by authorities in the Liberty and Coffeyville area, where officers had, thinking the man might be inside, before midnight Thursday night.

    Northbound and southbound motorists were being diverted from U.S. 169 in Coffeyville due to the manhunt. Traffic was at a standstill Thursday night south of where the Tahoe had stopped.

    Multiple law enforcement agencies are involved in the manhunt, and Nowata police have requested assistance in the investigation from the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, OSBI spokeswoman Jessica Brown said Thursday evening.


    The manhunt was continuing into the night.
