A Kentucky policeman was shot and killed in an apparent ambush when he stopped to pick up debris on a highway exit ramp, the Courier-Journal newspaper said on Sunday.

Bardstown Police Officer Jason Ellis, 33, was found shot to death on an exit ramp on the Blue Grass Parkway in north central Kentucky early Saturday morning.  

Investigators could not be reached for comment on Sunday. The Courier-Journal said state police answered a call about an accident on the exit ramp and found Ellis lying outside his parked police cruiser, which had its emergency lights on and had not been in a crash.

He had not spoken to dispatchers and had apparently stopped to pick up debris that had been deliberately placed in the roadway, the newspaper quoted Kentucky State Police as saying.

Ellis had been with the Bardstown Police Department since 2006 and left behind a wife and two small children, the department said on its Facebookpage.

He was the first officer killed in the line of duty in Bardstown, a town of 12,000 people about 40 miles south of Louisville, television station WLWT said.

  1. FINALLY! People have had enough of these murdering scumbags, and are starting to retaliate.

    Not one whit of sympathy from me. What goes around, comes around.

    About damn time!

  2. I hate to say it but that should be a message to that wife and two children of that cop. I guess that that comes with the territory being the wife of a cop and haveing kids with a cop. Oink oink squeel squeel. No big loss! Ain`t nothin`.

        1. I saw that movie when I was working at the theater. Denzel Washington was a real bastard of a cop and I wanted to beat the shit out of him myself by the end of the movie. His character reminds me of the Round Rock police. “Training Day” is a movie that gets my anger and blood boiling. Of course, that’s the whole point of social films. To get people emotional upset and angry in order to initiate a response. Spike Lee’s film, “Do the Right Thing” is a perfect example of that. Guess who discovered Denzel Washington, too? Yep, Spike Lee. Imagine that.

          1. At least Denzel got his just desserts at the end of the movie.

            We need more happy endings like that one.

  3. My guess is that whomever did this had good reason.

    Every week we read about cops murdering someone. Payback’s a bitch.

  4. Maybe they will get Senator Rand Paul from Kentucky to look into this, in case they blame the patriots or Constitutionalists on this incident. I mean he’s helped everyone so much these past years. NOT!

      1. Hahaha!!! Whoops! I missed that one.

        Hey, instead of suing me, how about I buy you a Starbucks coffee? Don’t worry, I won’t tell Henry.

        D’OH! He’s probably reading this already. lol

  5. Don’t be surprised if they claim the bullet came from an AK-47, which the Zionist MSM will frame as a Muslim terrorist act to benefit Israel.

    1. Don’t be surprised if the shooter was another cop. The guy could have been an Oathkeeper or something along those lines who wasn’t going to go along with the program. If we knew a little more about him it would help.
