Just unbelievable the number of LE officers that have been injured and or killed in the last two or so years.

Thanks for posting passionflower.

It is with profound sadness that we announce that Prince William County Police Officer Ashley Guindon, one of the officers involved in this evening shooting on Lashmere Ct, has died as a result of her injuries sustained during the incident. The investigation into the shooting is still underway and the remaining two officers wounded during the encounter are continuing to be treated for their injuries. We ask for everyone’s thoughts and prayers as our department deals with this tragic loss. We also ask for continued patience as we learn more about this incident.
 
She just started there too!!! :tears:

Horrible. And her training officer was there too.
 
Daily Mail article:

While many people immediately react "must be a low-income minority group member"

The shooting occurred in the Lake Ridge neighborhood in Woodbridge, on a curving street with suburban houses, lawns and sidewalks about a 5-minute drive from the county office building.

The two-story homes approach a half-million dollars in value apiece, according to county tax records, each with brick and siding exteriors, four bedrooms, multiple bathrooms and two-car garages.

and the suspect:
Allegedly the suspect, a military serviceman, 'murdered his wife and then ambushed the officers with a rifle as they approached the scene', according to the Officer Down Memorial Page.
 
Once again, I'm going to guess that we are not supposed to consider her perp's access to weapons as relevant?

Fortunately, that seems to be more a matter of perception than reality. Statistics reveal that 2015 was, relatively speaking, a very safe year for LEOs.

But 2016 has not been a safe year for them.

ETA:
Gunfire deaths this year: 11 , which is up 1100%
