Last night at a local convenience store, two of our Local Police were performing a outstanding warrants investigation where were shot by the perp who fled in a black Jeep Wrangler. The two officers are alive and in a unreleased hospital.
Prayers are for their recovery.

What a terrible loss for the families of those that have suffered EOW, especially as their life's work was to "Protect US",,, History will long remember the current administration for their abject failure for protecting those that protect US!!

Prayer for the family of the dead policeman. Prayers for healing and return to duty of the other man. May the perp have enough hnor to take his own life and eliminate the need for trial and jail/prison time.

Brings up a second Important Point.
The young Man was actually from Rosebud MO, Drove EVERYDAY to Hermann to be Cop there, some 25 miles ONE WAY where the other young man was from new Haven at close to 18 miles away. Our little burg has become a ghost town of B&Bs or Guest Cottages where maybe half rent on weekends or holiday weeks the remaining languish as AIRBNB special sales or not rented at all. The ability for workers here to live here is GONE, business cannot have the working types living within their Special Industry community including police, not a good look as these business also whine cannot achieve workers.

Dmiller that is a common problem, buying places and using them for air b&b's, or something similar. Makes it hard to get employees.
