Four police officers killed in shooting at North Carolina home
today is an absolute tragic day for the
city of
Charlotte and for the profession of law
enforcement today we lost some Heroes
that are out to just simply trying to
keep our community safe so about 1:30
p.m. this afternoon
the US Marshals fugitive task force went
to the 5000 block of gallway Avenue an
attempt to serve a warrant on an
individual for possession of firearm by
a convicted felon when they approached
that individual they were met with
gunfire officers returned
gunfire and struck the
victim who was later pronounced deceased
in in the front yard of the residents as
officers approached that individual they
were they then received additional
gunfire from inside of the residence so
after a long standoff we were able to
clear this
residence and confirm that there were
two additional people
inside they were both brought to the
police station as Persons of Interest
and we’re trying to determine now what
exactly occurred inside of the residents
I was home cleaning um with my doors
open like I always do and I heard the
shot and I said okay there’s three shots
the second set of shots I’m like maybe
somebody got a new gun they’re
practicing the third set of shots I’m
like no something’s going on and then
maybe not even a minute or two after I
heard these shots I stepped outside my
door police were running by and then
ambulance started coming in and they
were just going everywhere everywhere
when the SWAT team started going they
were going through people’s grass then
all of a sudden you just heard shooting
Eight law-enforcement officers were shot, four fatally, during a shootout outside of a home in North Carolina in the US.

R.I.P Officers😞
Holy day
Suspect named as Terry Clark Hughes, Jr…
Rip who were the shooters tho why are they hiding their identity. Bs
If only there was some kind of controls that could be placed on gun ownership…. Guess we’ll never know.
Hot dang
*USUAL SUSPECT*👏 👏
Ban all guns, simple??
Why is he called a shooter and not a terrorist
The USA loves its violence
Not surprised by this community
evil begets evil
And they tell others how to live…
Do not let this tragedy, which it indeed is, be used to take one's right to carry away!!!
Leaders of the free world
DOJ RECOMMENDS LOWERING STANDARDS
Republicans what you going to do about it ,stop taking the MONEY
Will the sports, the media or the black community, now take the knee for four years?
SILENCE!!!
Immigration for you people! They knew what’s up!
😢
Americans call this civilised erudite behaviour….🤣🤣🤣….🇬🇧
I'm sorry but nobody could convince me a country with a "gun culture" has got some amazing grasp on "freedom"
RIP officers and courage and hope to their families,friends and serving officers.
Didn't 3 other police die yesterday? And 2 the day before? Freedom?
The public servants fAfO…..the American people have more rights than yall think..seems like a misunderstanding. 😅
The best civilization, right?
Oh yes, guns definitely keep America safer.
Thoughts and prayers.
☹️😢
Yesterday a gun was found in a wall of a house about 50 miles from my house. It made national news. Im in the UK and its nice that there are so few guns. I cant believe Americans cling onto a right to own guns with so many deaths and school shooters. I guess life is worth less in America.
The fact that someone working with their house doors open has to hear three separate bursts/exchanges of gunfire before they think, “Hmmm, something’s going on…” and try to find out… 🤯
Thoughts and prayers
Homies from da hood.
Cops acted on bad intel. Sloppy.
😪💔prayers to these families🙏
Oh well…
Politicians be like "how can I capitalize on this tragedy to convince people to surrender their rights?"
elhamdülillah
So what I got from that is; they popped a man in his front lawn, and this persons sons deaded the police.
Has this incident beEn classed as a terrst atek
Oh convicted felon bet this won't be used to take away more rights of people
MURICA! FREEDOM! YEEEE HAWWWWW 🦅
