Man Who Allegedly Shot, Killed Fargo Officer ID’d as Mohamad Barakat
Breitbart ^ | 7/16/23 | AWR HAWKINS

Posted on 07/16/2023 5:56:24 AM PDT by CFW

The man who allegedly shot and killed a Fargo, North Dakota, police officer and wounded two others has been identified as 37-year-old Mohamad Barakat.

NBC News reported that the shooting occurred Friday just before 3:00 p.m. A witness said the shots were fired during a “traffic stop.”

ABC News reported that 23-year-old Jake Wallin was the officer killed in the shooting. Wallin joined the Fargo Police Department in April of this year.

Officers Andrew Dotas and Tyler Hawes were shot and wounded in the incident and are both in “critical stable condition.”

Barakat, the alleged shooter, was killed by Officer Zachary Robinson.

Good for Officer Robinson in taking out the trash and saving the tax-payers some money. Too bad someone didn't dispose of the cretin earlier.

Why were there 4 officers involved in this so-called "traffic stop"?

Just seems a bit odd, unless it escalated once a 2nd police cruiser arrived on scene.

Dead officer only on the force since April.

Just another case of “SJS,” Sudden Jihad Syndrome. Nothing to see here. Move along. Get used to it.

Doesn’t provide much detail on the killer. Did he come here from another Muslim country or did he convert while here.

Now when do all the long promised benefits of diversity kick in? The left have been promising but I’ve been waiting since the late 70s.

Most likely a “migrant” from Minnesota.

That’s just as ridiculous as blaming the Amish, I’m sure there’ll be some damn fool post that here too.

"...a suspect opened fire for no reason at all on a busy street in Fargo, North Dakota on Friday....

The deceased suspect was identified on Saturday as 37-year-old Mohamad Barakat.

Police are baffled and can’t figure out the motive for the fatal shooting."

Have the police been brought up on murder charges yet for killing the African migrant?

But I thought Islam is the religion of Peace? A white supremacist did it not, an Islamic person.

The is what a Liberal would say...

In all seriousness prayers to Jake Wallin's family.

Doesn’t seem to be a traffic stop. Car accident, apparently not involving Barakat. Ambush-type shooting.

No mention if he was yelling ‘aloha snackbar’.

It’s a joke.

But a bad one these days. Originally Amish was a facetious joke about Moslems.

Then somehow most here keep using it to refer to blacks.

Which is smarter? Analogy to a religion, or to a race?

The original made much more sense.

_______________________
That was my first call - a setup traffic accident to suck the officers into a kill zone. There is so much we do not know about this shooting. Was there more than one shooter? Was the shooter driving one of the cars or just conveniently in the area? It sure appears the shooter was prepared to kill, likely too prepared for it to have been unplanned. Who are the drivers of the accident vehicles? If Barakat was one driver, where is the other driver and do the drivers know each other? Did any of the officers have an active case against Barakat?

Conundrum.

He looks like your every-day urban black.

Yet his name and proximity to MN implies he’d be Somalian Moslem.

What to think?

Where is the photo of the perp from?

His name would seem more likely Lebanese or Syrian.
