PINE BLUFF, Ark. (KTHV) - A 107-year old Pine Bluff man died Saturday after a shootout with officers and S.W.A.T. members. The Pine Bluff Police Dept. released the following information about the incident on Saturday evening. "On September 7, 2013, at approximately 4:25 p.m., Officers of the Pine Bluff Police Department responded to a disturbance at 1411 W. 16th. When they arrived, they were able to determine that an Aggravated Assault had occurred against two people at the residence. The suspect, Monroe Isadore (M, 107 years old), had pointed a weapon at them. The officers had the two victims leave the residence, for their safety, and approached the door to the bedroom where Isadore was supposed to be. When officers announced themselves, Isadore shot through the door at them. No officer was hit or injured by the gunfire. The officers retreated to a safer area and supervisors and additional help were called. Supervisors began negotiating with Isadore as soon as they arrived. S.W.A.T. (Special Weapons and Tactics) was also called out. Negotiations continued for some time and when S.W.A.T arrived, negotiations still continued. S.W.A.T. was able to insert a camera into the room, where Isadore was, and confirmed he was armed with a handgun. S.W.A.T. inserted gas into the room, after it was evident negotiations were unsuccessful, in hopes Isadore would surrender peacefully. When the gas was inserted into the room, Isadore fired rounds at the S.W.A.T. officers that had inserted the gas from outside a bedroom window. Shortly afterwards, a S.W.A.T. entry team, inside the residence, breached the door to the bedroom and threw a distraction device into the bedroom. Isadore then began to fire on the entry team and the entry team engaged Isadore, killing him. The investigation is still ongoing."

The officers are on paid leave now. Mission accomplished... a paid vacation.
Good thing he wasn't a young man of 90,or they would have had the Air National Guard called in to bomb his house. BTW,am I the only one wondering how valid a domestic abuse call is on a man that is 107? It ain't like he is going to chase you out of the house and down the street. ALL they would have had to do is wait 30 minutes and he would be taking a nap or changing his diaper and forgotten all about the police being outside.

From another more recent story: Here is a strong indication that the man was not mentally orientated to what was what and who was who. This could of been ended on a better note if they had just let the old guy fall asleep. http://www.seattlepi.com/news/crime/article/Ark-officer-on-leave-after-107-year- old-killed-4802173.php
This could of been ended on a better note if they had just let the old guy fall asleep. Which is the same in all cases that don't include hostages. The cops have NO valid reason to kick in the door and enter shooting in any non-hostage case. They just do it because they can and because they can get away with it. Remember,to every 6 year old boy with a hammer everything looks like a nail. The same applies to too many policemen. They have tear gas and machine guns,so every case looks to them like tear gas and machine guns should be used.

"Ms. Barlow stated his granddaughter finally got him to open the door and she went around to speak with Mr. Isadore, at that time she stated Mr. Isadore raised his arm and pointed a gun at her and stated 'You better stop breaking in to my house,'" the report said."
