Zombie time. Quick, get an axe.
The horror began about 2 p.m. when a series of gunshots were heard on the ramp, which is along NE 13th Street, just south of The Miami Herald building.
According to police sources, a road ranger saw a naked man chewing on another man’s face and shouted on his loud speaker for him to back away.Meanwhile, a woman also saw the incident and flagged down a police officer who was in the area.
The officer, who has not been identified, approached and, seeing what was happening, also ordered the naked man to back away. When he continued the assault, the officer shot him, police sources said. The attacker failed to stop after being shot, forcing the officer to continue firing. Witnesses said they heard at least a half dozen shots.
If a followup article says the last shot that finally stopped the guy was a headshot, I’m just gonna jump straight to Defcon 1.
My kids showed this to me. I now have a 6, 8 and 10 year old gearing up with baseball bats, gear bags with food and water and the random stuffed animal.
Well, if it IS starting in Miami, at least those of us in the Northwest should have a fair warning…
Heh – I read this story and came here to give you the link, but I should have known you would already be on this…
A half-dozen shots? Don’t they teach Miami cops anything? Headshots, fellas.
Realistically, I dont think any department wants the notoriety of encouraging it’s officers to shoot people in the head.

A bit longer article but no additional real info. There’s a security video but I don’t have any need to watch the attack so I can’t say what’s on it.

Too twisted for color TV!
Let’s hope that it’s just bad batch of PCP and not teh ZOMBIES!
Meh….alternative lifestyle plus drug usage, multiplied by argument. They say that when it comes to domestic violence, there are no faceless victims. Oh, wait – we found one!
I live about 30 miles north of Miami. Saw a partial video of the attack, no gruesome stuff shown. They are advising that it was some sort of new bad batch of LSD! Wow, talk about a bad trip! I work in LE and most cops can’t hit the broad side of a barn! Although some of us train on our own to be more proficient at shooting, just curious how many rounds hit the bad guy!
Stay safe all!
