Federal agents on Wednesday morning hauled more than 120 firearms, including “machine guns,” out of the Ahwatukee Foothills home of a man suspected of shooting at a campaign office for the Democratic Party three times and posting bags of white powder labeled as poison near political signs.
Jeffrey Michael Kelly, 60, was arrested on Tuesday night near his Ahwatukee Foothills home by Tempe police who, according to court documents, used surveillance footage to find the suspect.
If you are a cop afraid to confront a criminal, isn’t that what special units are for? Like wtf are we giving SWAT teams tanks for if they can’t deal with this?
If he was handicapped and homeless they would be neck checking this fucker. Probably ly a lie anyway…I bet they went, questioned him, had a big laugh, shook hands and called it a day. This is PHXPD
Can’t be worse than Mesa PD…
So they can get new profile pictures for their social media accounts
They’ll always have excuses, it’s how they justify bigger budgets and ridiculous departmental purchases.
“What if they have anti tank rockets?” “What if they’re using suicide drones?” “What if they start taking shots at us with phased plasma rifles in the 40 watt range?”
The spectre of the unstoppable criminal provides an extra profit stream for defense contractors on top of forever wars.
They also could just arrest him when he left his house for beers or whatever. They dont have to no knock him like he’s “sleeping while black” or anything.
proof that phoenix police are cowards… they freakin admit it outright
No, they just agree with the shooter.
How about both?
This guy seems dangerous. We should probably just leave him alone.
That’s literally their job. They aren’t going to send regular officers to that shit. There are teams specifically trained for those situations. Whoever made that decision should be fired and blacklisted from ever working as an officer again. But we know nothing will happen about it.
Limited property damage and a liberal…no resources for that around here.
Did you notice the part where it was Dems being shot at? Could be a correlation between who the cops serve and protect and what side of the aisle they identify with.
Seems like those cops went to the same school as the Uvalde piss babies.
They may have. Third party police training is common, and a few companies train large numbers of officers (to be mortally afraid of any unexpected loud sound).
Sorry, we can’t keep you safe, we’re too scared.
Coward cops doing cowardly things.
Partisan prosecutors propping up their Republican buddies.
Justice for some in America, like usual.
