CONVERSE, Texas -- A suspect in the shooting of a Bexar County deputy has reportedly been shot and killed by officers.

News 4 was told there was a two-vehicle accident near Old Cimarron Trail and Gibbs Sprawl Road. The deputy, identified as Deputy Manuel Herrera, a 12-year veteran, was nearby and went to the scene.

I remember a recent case in Florida where a deputy was shot. The police tracked the “suspect” down and a firefight ensued. The “suspect” was shot 63 times. A reporter asked the sheriff why he was shot 63 times and the sheriff replied “Cause that was all the bullets we had”.

But, but, but,.......people never just begin shooting at cops for no reason.

The Dorner supporters and criminal apologists must be sleeping.

I think the gang unit of the Sheriff’s Department took him out. Good on them.

When Sheriff Parmelieu and Chief McManus were being interviewed, some jerkwad reporter (not sure which station as you could only hear his voice) questioned why all this happened over a stolen car.
I thought he was inferring that Law Enforcement over reacted..Guess he missed the part about the suspect shooting a sheriff’s deputy, then drawing a gun on the two members of the gang unit.

I never could figure out which station the reporter was from as he wasn’t shown on any of the channels I watched.
