LAPD Policewoman Shot And Critically Wounded By Robbery Suspect.

Southwest L.A.-Last night--Officer Kristina Ripatti, 33 responded to an armed robbery call and confronted an armed suspect. Ripatti was shot in the arm and her armpit. The armpit area is usually unprotected by modern police body amour.

Ripatti’s partner returned fire killing the suspect.

I'm sure we will soon see the dead suspect's 8th grade graduation picture and see someone protray him as a victim rather than an armed, deadly criminal.

Crimefile wishes Officer Ripatti a speedy and full recovery.

Story and video here.

Isnt this always the case? An in attemp to make the police look bad, they post a picture of "an outstanding citizen" instead of focusing on the CAUSE of the incident and WHY the criminal got shot? What a sad world we live in.
