FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- The Fresno County Sheriff's Department has confirmed that two officers were injured in an active shooter situation at the Fresno County jail in Downtown Fresno.

Suspect Thong Vang in shooting previously convicted in rapes of 3 victims ages 12, 13, 14 years old. Served 16 yrs 4:40 PM - 3 Sep 2016 · Fresno, CA, United States
Thong, Juanita and Toamalama,that’s some serious diversity
An officer was shot in the fracas.
And you know how painful that is.
“An officer was shot in the fracas”
OUCH!
Oh no! Not the fracas! That is such a tender spot! Ouch ouch ouch!
Hmong shooter?
I don't need to read the report. He's a convicted rapist, right? So they put two females in charge of him. And since they're women, he had not trouble taking the sidearm from one of them. And he opens up on them.
It seems to me every time I read about a courtroom or jailhouse shooting of an officer, that's what happened. Unless they only hire female Olympic judo experts--who get better job offers than that--what do they expect? Girls and middle-aged women guarding hard-core felons. What could go wrong?
Read the report. Get your fact straight.
The Brian Gene Nichols shooting spree started when he attacked the female sheriff's deputy who had charge of him. After he took her weapon, he beat her into a coma.
He then proceeded to murder four people, including the Judge who was going to preside over his trial for rape, kidnapping, and assault. He also murdered the court reporter and two other LEOs.
Best punishment? One between the eyes, No repeat offenders.
Vietnamese and Hmong are strong in Fresno
"Neither Davila nor Scanlan were armed as is practice, the sheriff said. Davila, a mother and grandmother, has 18 years of experience. Scanlan, a father of six, had 10 years of experience in Fresno County and previously worked in youth corrections, she said."
Girls and middle-aged women guarding hard-core felons. What could go wrong?

Exactly.
People might want to read the article before commenting.
Perp was not in custody at the jail...just came in the front door to “visit” someone...with his own gun.
But asians don’t commit crimes. They are model citizens. They go to Harvard. They have high SAT scores.
Really, they didn’t search for weapons on him???
