Clemmons Killed

The shooter of four police in Washington state has been killed.


Seattle police shot and killed the fugitive who gunned down four officers in a suburban coffee shop, a sheriff's spokesman said Tuesday.

Maurice Clemmons was shot to death after a "very alert patrol officer" investigating reports of a stolen car recognized him, Pierce County sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer told Fox News.

Clemmons, 37, murdered the four Lakewood police officers at a cafe Sunday morning in Parkland, a Tacoma suburb about 35 miles south of Seattle.


The media has already begun to speculate on the chain of events that lead to the tragedy. That will only continue. Hopefully, we can all take a moment today to ponder the magnitude of the tragedy.
