Swat

UPDATE -3:00 p.m. Tuesday, September 24   Jason Kirchner, 35, of Missoula, appeared in Missoula Justice Court on Tuesday, September 24 to hear charges surrounding the nearly 24-hour standoff on Cooley Street in which shots were fired at law enforcement officers, dozens of people were displaced from their homes, and an entire neighborhood was brought to a standstill.

Update 9:30 p.m. - Lieutenant Richard Stepper with the Missoula Police Department said late Monday night that part of the strategy to get the suspect inside the trailer to communicate with law enforcement was to cut off the power to the trailer earlier in the day.

Well, this is humiliating. Thieves using bolt cutters were able to force their way into a supposedly secure building earlier Thursday morning and steal 21 MP-5 submachine guns and 12 large caliber handgun from the Los Angeles police department’s prestigious SWAT unit.

I had the opportunity to do this last year. Have you ever wondered what our PD does, how dedicated they are, and want a chance to ask them ANYTHING you want, no holds barred. This is for you.
