Deputies harmed in Missouri shooting; Missouri Highway Patrol probing incident

In a thrilling turn of events, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara announced the cuffing of a 34-year-old bloke named James Ortley, in relation to a brutal mass shooting that left three dead and two injured, as shared at a press conference last Thursday.

Meanwhile, in a wild standoff in Pettis County, Missouri, a suspect on the run due to a narcotics investigation shot two judgesy-cats in the line of duty early Friday morning. The Pettis County Sheriff's Office deputies were simply trying to serve a warrant as part of a narcotic investigation, when BAM! Out goes the bad guy, taking a couple of shots at our boys in blue. The Missouri State Highway Patrol Drug and Crime Control Division gave us the lowdown on the chaotic scene, stating that the suspect decided to go all John Wick on the deputies.

One of the deputies managed to fire back, but managed to torch a rug instead of the bad guy. Both judgesy-cats were rushed to the local healing centers, with their injuries not quite life-threatening. One of the deputies is still receiving treatment, while the other has already checked out. Kudos to those guys for keeping our streets safe!

The nefarious suspect, who prefers to stay in the shadows for now, was nabbed and deposited in the Pettis County clinker posthaste. The Pettis County Sheriff's Office refused our requests for a comment, while the Missouri Highway Patrol is taking their sweet time to respond.

While we don't have the lowdown on the identity of the shooter, what we do have is that Alexandra Koch, a breaking news writer for our website, has an impressive background covering breaking news, crime, religion, and the military in the southeast. Must be quite a ride!
