A police officer was shot dead and another was wounded on Sunday by a suspect during a foot chase after a car crash outside of Salt Lake City, police said.

Officer Doug Barney died after he was shot once and fellow officer Jon Richey was expected to survive after he was shot three times in Holladay, Unified Police Department of Greater Salt Lake Sheriff Jim Winder said at a news conference.  

Barney and Richey were among the police officers who chased on foot a man and woman after they fled the scene of a car crash at about 10 a.m. local time in the southeast suburb of Salt Lake City.

The man suspect Corey Lee Henderson shot Barney in the head, killing him, during the pursuit, according to Winder.

Henderson was shot and killed when he later exchanged gun fire with Richey who was shot three times. Richey was taken to the hospital where he was in stable condition, Winder said.

Henderson had a criminal record, according to Winder. The woman was taken into custody, he said.

  1. Another pig was also shot and killed last night. Two in 24 hours.

    Well, good! It’s nice to start off the week with a little justice for all the victims of the pigs from coast to coast, who like to brag that they “always win.” Did they win here?

    I like to repeat this saying I once heard: In a police state, the police are the enemy. They are ALL guilty by association with the high percentage of psychopaths among them, especially since the “good” ones invariably defend the true sadists in their ranks with every tool in their disposal, from “testilying” to deadly force. They’re also ALL guilty of enforcing unjust laws (guns, drugs, gambling, etc.), violating our privacy, and helping turn the country into a giant prison. They deserve whatever evils befall them.

  2. “The man suspect Corey Lee Henderson shot Barney in the head, killing him,…”

    OUTSTANDING!!!

    THAT’S how you kill one of those scumbags!

    “Jon Richey was expected to survive after he was shot three times…”

    Sadly, that’s not. None to the head, obviously.

    Oh well, add this to the other POS pig that got smoked in OH, and that’s a banner day for freedom in this country.
