Police stations across Los Angeles beefed up security Tuesday after two detectives in an unmarked cruiser were ambushed and injured outside the LAPD's Wilshire Division station.

"While this seems like an isolated incident, out of an abundance of caution, all of our stations are on heightened alert," Cmdr. Andrew Smith said. "That doesn't mean rifles out, but officers will be guarding stations."

Oh, yes. Of course. It’s another isolated incident.

I believe in one of the Terminator movies the Terminator targeted the police and a police station.

It’s only a matter of time before south-of-the-border style gang violence moves into California — massacres, headless bodies left in trucks and parking lots, corpses hanging from utility poles, etc.

It has only begun, LA.

Just wait until after the immigration reform act is passed.

The only thing you’ll have to look forward to then is the “big one”.

Police who feel targeted are loose with their ammo.

Chris Donner, who targeted the LAPD back in February.

Cops went into a panic and got stupid, went on a shooting spree against those who DIDN’T match the description of the perp.

2 old ladies delivering newspapers early in the morning were lucky to escape with their lives.

Description of Donner’s truck didn’t even come close to matching the one shown in the pic.

Amnesty will do it.

I agree. And this applies to Arizona and Texas too, before it spreads to other states.

I’m taking a wild guess, but were the ambushed cops in any way involved in the (NSA journalist) Hastings crash the other day?

For example.... Being an LA coroner the day your office releases the Breitbart autopsy report can be hazardous, as LA coroner technician Michael Cormier discovered while dropping dead from arsenic poisoning.

Who ambushes cops outside a police station other than a regime in a big hurry?
