“…mail suspect”? Are you sure?

“Police report shots were fired, and police officers returned fire, killing the mail suspect and injuring the female who was then transported to hospital.”

Must have used incorrect postage.

Yes Jimmy people make mistakes ever editors. Some of us though have the brains to figure out what they are really trying to say.

Could be a reference to a guy “going postal” and that is why it is a mail subject.

@NoWay As is demonstrated by your post, amateurs make spelling mistakes all the time. I have no-problem with that. As for the “…having brains” reference, while slaughtering the grammar of a two sentence post, that is priceless!

“ever editors” NoWay?

Yesss but at times, these mistakes bring a smile to people, which is good. turn a bad thing into a good thing.. Shooting at mail… hilarious

Must all be bored to jump all over something so miniscule.

Can’t believe the posts. How does a serious account of members shooting someone dead turn in to people bitching about spelling mistakes. Unreal.
Glad the folks who protect us are safe.

How serious an account can it be if the person that posted it just MAILs it in? See what I did there?

The “teachers dispute” must be over. We have some bored bloggers.

I’m with Grizz on this: getting your jollies by mocking a story involving death and maiming is repugnant.

GET IT WRITE PEOPLE ,IT’S BOARD NOT BORED.

There is a 2×4 joke there somewhere.

Yes ever slinky! Caught another perfect person!

Bravo Jimmy you’re a pro!

That’s a rich statement full of irony coming from you ‘isis’.

Sounds like trespassing, warrants out for their arrest, and then taking shots with a firearm… and predictable results. One hopes they still get a proper investigation though just to be sure.
