Cop shoots student - Another training/demo "accident"

[titsonritz]

Wow, just wow. Is this the new norm, WTF?

An investigation is underway after an officer accidentally fired a gun and hit a student at South Vermillion High School.

According to police, the shooting happened just after 9:30 Thursday morning.

There was a class teaching students how to be officers. Participants in the classroom were doing a drill about a scenario with a so-called "bad guy."

Poor kid was just getting his life toget- oh, sorry. Wrong scenario.


I wonder if this police department is one of the many that has defunded their training.

I thought Russians were the only ones that did hand to hand live fire training drills.

What do you bet it was a striker-fired weapon?

Prayers for a full recovery.

Some people maybe/might be a little more "lenient" when it comes to judging A. Baldwin.

Nah.

New? Nope, stupid has been normal for a while. People (and officers seem to be exposing themselves to this needlessly) fail to understand that in ANY scenario where simulated force is in play, it needs to be sterile environment, no weapons of any type allowed. Slip / capture events are possible where use of real force is captured by someone involved.

And per the reporting, the officer's service REVOLVER. I thought my department was the last to transition to semiautos...32 years ago.

WTF! I used to wonder about those plastic "dummy guns". Seemed strange that "pros" needed those. I guess I can see why now.

Small rural county, total population 19,000. Probably not the best trained in the world. Still, you would think they would at least know enough to check the condition of their weapons. Guy looks like he should have been retired.

Should be a good topic for discussion during Thanksgiving dinner. How is your studies going this year Darryl? Well this week we learned about negligent discharge and after the holiday break we are going to participate in something called drive by shooting. I love my studies.

 

[nehalemguy]

In the 10 or so years that I worked the gun department at Larry's Sports Centers, we had three negligent discharges.

One was a West Linn doctor showing off his new concealed carry S&W 6906.

The other two were cops, one of whom shot himself in the leg.

Police departments have zero to do with funding so your "many" is a head scratcher to say the least.

Remember it is likely that many victims voted to disarm themselves and defund the police!

Not sure what that has to do this surge in negligent training/demo shootings, but OK.
