First I want to say after this blog is posted I will not be on till later tonight. I feel the need to be around people in a real setting.
After 15 years working in law enforcement something happened today I had hoped would never happen. I work in a small town government center where nothing ever goes on and I received a call no one wants to get. A fellow officer and a great friend was attacked by an inmate with the intent of taking a life. As I was responded we got the call the inmate had the officer's weapon. As I entered the area the call went out that a shot was fired.
I opened the door to find my friend fighting for his life with a gun pointed at him. With our weapons drawn. we attacked the defendant with all that we had. We were able to subdue him without loss of life or any further injuries.
Now you may wonder why I write this not for accolades nor way to go's. Not for critics nor harsh comments. I realized someone from above was looking and protecting all that were in that struggle. And to let my true friends know how much I appreciate the limited time I spend with you even on here. I love and care about you even if can only be shown in this way.
