Three officers have died, and the fourth officer is brain dead, but remains on life support. This was just updated, by the Oakland Police Department; changing their previous press release that the fourth officer was dead...
Horrible news. They should go ahead and string up the suspect.
The Oakland PD has had a rough beginning to 09, they've had to deal with the fallout from the fatal shooting of an unarmed man and now they're dealing with losing four of their own. I hope they're able to get as much help as they need.
Just for the sake of accuracy, the officer who killed Oscar Grant wasn't and Oakland Police officer, but was employed by the BART transit district.
That is messed up. Too bad. Don't mind that the guy on the bike died, but it's too bad he had to take down 4/5 officers.
It's like cornering an injured dog...
