Lawdog Dago Dom Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Say it ain't so! While on parole for a weapon offense bad guy gets a gun and shoots at cops?

Subdeacon Joe Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Quote Flamingo Jones has been charged with attempted first-degree murder of a police officer. He appeared in court in the Leighton Criminal Court Building in a wheelchair, wearing hospital scrubs.Wait. Flamingo? Seriously - Flamingo? HAHAHAHAHA! An officer caught up to Jones on foot, saw him holding a gun and ordered him to drop it, Santini said; instead, Jones fled through a gangway. When Jones jumped over a fence while still holding the gun, the officer chasing him “feared for his life” and fired, but did not strike him, Santini said. The officer later saw Jones emerge from a gangway onto Bennett Avenue, still holding the gun, Santini said. Jones raised the gun toward the officer and the officer fired at Jones again, Santini said. Jones fell, fired at the plainclothes officer, then at uniformed officers arriving at the scene, Santini said. Those officers fired back; Jones, shot in his feet, was taken into custody, Santini said. A gun was found nearby. Wait. Shot in the feet? Well, he's going to have a lot of practice living up to his name standing on one leg, switching back and forth. No bail either, which is a nice change. Nice shooting officers. UPDATE: Somebody in the comment section said that we're mispronouncing his name: I think it’s pronounced "Flamin’ go." We apologize for any confusion.

But if we did, would it cancel itself out and become legal? Hmmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
