The unthinkable has happened again, and only a month apart. This morning four Lakewood police officers (neighboring town to Puyallup) were sitting inside a Forza coffee shop before their shift began. Their laptops were out, they were conducting a briefing, and a customer stepped out of line - pulled out a handgun - and executed all four. No one else in the coffee shop, customers nor employees, were hurt thank God. But four police officers, who pledged to keep the peace and protect citizens, were mercilessly killed. Four families do not have a loved one coming home today.
That's 5 officers in our region alone in the last 30 days, murdered while on duty. This will be another painful week for everyone in the police community to accept and endure.
