NC: Eyewitnesses describe the terror of DWI checkpoint shooting

Via NC Links

40 gun shots and they are still alive?  Idiots.


Jared and Rose Cleerdin found themselves right in the middle of a shootout at what should have been a routine DWI checkpoint.  Days after the dramatic shootout in Brunswick County, they are still shaken by what they saw.

"Every cop turned around and started unloading like super trigger happy as if their training was coming into full effect and they were being able to utilize it," said Cleerdin. "Everybody was just blasting this car to pieces. It was absolutely terrifying."

They were stunned with what was happening, as officers reportedly shot dozens of rounds - in the direction on-coming traffic.

"Cops are shooting from the front of the car, back into the rest of the on-coming traffic to the check point, into the rest of the innocent civilians down the road," said Cleerdin.

Cleerdin says he believes the officers acted with no regard for public safety.

"It was way beyond reckless," said Cleerdin. "I couldn't believe it. These are professional people, professional officers, and they're training, they're highly trained and they're not supposed to do stuff like that."

  2. Interesting.... Did we just witness the awakening of some "sheeple"?
    As for the officers in question, NO they are not professional, and the "spray and pray" style of shooting seems to have effected all Law Enforcement across the country. Really very sad, as one well aimed shot should be all a "Professional" would need....
