Has it now become procedure to burn down the house if a suspect is in the midst of a shoot out with police? Has the Chris Dorner case empowered departments all over the nation to just burn suspects to death when it becomes to difficult to catch them alive? It's sure starting to look that way...
According to Seattle Times:
A two-day police standoff at a home in the Washington coastal town of Hoquiam ended just before dawn Thursday when a man who had holed up there after allegedly wounding an officer got into a shootout with authorities and the house erupted in flames.
The man came out of the house at about 6 a.m. and went down in an exchange of gunfire with officers, Hoquiam Police Sgt. Brian Dayton told KOMO. Moments later the house was on fire.
There has been no word on the condition of the suspect or the cause of the blaze, which destroyed the home. Video showed the house engulfed in flames as firefighters arrived, and authorities pulling back a robot that had been used in the standoff.
I just find it so hard to believe the cops anymore. Sure, no one has no idea how this fire started...
