Two people are dead and six wounded after a pair of gunman opened fire on a Houston neighborhood on Sunday, police announced.
Houston police responded to a report of a shooting in progress at 10:15 a.m. and arrived at Memorial Drive where at least one suspect repeatedly shot at officers, Police Chief Martha Montalvo said at a Sunday afternoon news conference.
"Our primary responding officer is lucky to be alive and was unhurt when the suspect opened fire on his patrol vehicle as it arrived on scene," police wrote in a Facebook post alongside photos of the car riddled with bullet holes.
Local residents were told to stay inside or "avoid the area."
An officer fatally shot one of the suspects and the other was injured and taken to a hospital in critical condition, officials announced in another Facebook post.
"An active shooter fired shots from a high powered weapon and caused multiple bullet strikes to one of our HPD helicopters," police wrote, noting that none of the officers in the chopper was injured.
Police said one citizen was fatally shot in the head inside a vehicle and the circumstances surrounding the death were not immediately available.
Montalvo said two deputies and three citizens were wounded in the shooting.
While police said they do not know the conditions of the wounded citizens, the two injured deputies are "expected to be okay."
Police are talking to local residents to make sense of the incident.

Excellent job Law Enforcement. I noticed Puckard, Buckhole and the sites other cop haters did nothing with their personally owned guns to stop this disgruntled turd slurper. They were busy looking up yella poor pitbull articles.

Really? Did you cite a first grader for not obeying your hand held stop sign with a written ticket or did you bring in the SWAT?

If you feel better forming the mental illusion that I crossed children for 20 years, fine. Whatever keeps you from coming unglued when I expose that faggot friend of yours, Peter Puff.
Bitch. lol

His claim to fame as an enforcer of law and order was the one time he spent only one night with Chris Wilcoxs Minuteman Project near our Sothern border with Mexico just South of Sierra Vista, Arizona, patrolling to help prevent entry of illegal aliens.
He tried to bask in the glory forever for the single one night event with his braggart posts on LP. But he was shot down by Mel, who reposted his name and address from a post in which he exposed himself on another forum. He then blew his top and alleged that Mel had caused a bunch of illegals to do a massive drive-by shoot-up on his house in Riverside.
You should have been on LP at the time, you would have laughed your ass off at Buckhole like everyone else did.

You are a retired, disgruntled old man incapable of doing anything but acting as a keyboard commando with an obvious cockpit problem.

You are one psychotic & spiteful piece of work. Does being a police officer give you PTSD?

Your frequent namecalling of "tard", "Paultard", or "____tard", and now "pussy" can be added to your repertoire, and shows you have all the mental development of a high school sophomore (though not a particularly civilized one).
Are you able to NOT resort to such childish retorts?

I have contempt for people like you... why wouldn't I call you names?
Think about it.

I already have. Resorting to that level shows a lack of maturity, and thinking it's justified because feeling the negative emotion of "contempt" like it's some kind of divine sense of justice very much just shows you have not learned very much in your life.
I have little time to spend on such people.

I loath you
I could care less if I hurt your feelings.
I could care less what you think, how you feel... if you breathe.
I call you names that I feel are fitting. Names you DESERVE. Names you've EARNED.
If you don't like the names, that's on you.
So... why wouldn't I call you names?
Think about it harder.

As a recommendation, get out of your depressing basement playing keyboard commando and discuss your miserable life with a doctor of your choice: hopefully one that can prescribe medical marijuana to alter your chronic mood swings.
Short of my recommendation (above) feel free to see your local street corner dealer/pimp. Have some kicks!

What do I give a shit who reads this?
I'm allowed to loath someone. I'm Allowed to not give a shit if he dies.
I'm allowed my opinion. Read the 1st amendment. Learn something.

Actually, what you probably mean to say is that you COULDN'T care less, because if you COULD care less, then it means you still care at least a little bit.
If you still care about me a little bit then perhaps you really could care less.
Please clarify.

When you first came here you were much tamer, and more polite. I didn't understand some of the posters animosity towards you. Lately you have just ranted and called people you disagree with names. Calling everyone a Paultard is growing tiresome. Ok not everyone, but certain posters.
I don't agree with everything Mr. Ron Paul stands for. I've even criticized him. But he is no tard. People who believe in his ideas of individual liberty and freedom are not tards.
I know I set a bad example here for you and others to follow through my own name calling.
Lets all just get back to discussing issues and leave the name calling in the past.
I'm looking for higher standards for posting here. To make the place more respectful and not just a name calling forum.
I know I know I do it too. A character flaw on my part. Hopefully we can all improve the discussion here by focussing on issues.
Thanks. You too Gatlin, Roscoe etc. Forgive me if I left someone out.
On the other side there is Deckard, who honestly doesn't go as far. He may post stuff you disagree with but he is more civil most of the time.
Just telling you the way I see it.

A very respectfully thing to admit there, Stone. I'm impressed. Honestly I've not ever liked reading the rather vulgar names you've called others, even if they were people not on the forum. They've been a turn off for me, and I think hurt whatever point you were trying to make against them, as is the case for all who resort to such tactics. Stating points and objections to what harm people do without going to that level will help the LF in the long run. You'll attract and keep more people.
I look forward to the change!

Wrong again, hondopehead!
Oh wait, now name calling is being considered rude and immature. I'll work on it, just as soon as Pebbles sets the new role model example.

Well said..
Mea culpa on my character flaws while arguing. -- I try not to name call, but the foul language finally gets to me, and I get nasty in kind. --- Witness the ongoing exchange between Nolu Chan and I, where totally unnecessary language is being used.
Thanks, and I'll be holding my breath for civility..
