So, Friday morning when I left to go to work, I decided to go get some breakfast on the way in... but, much to my dismay Lake Mead Blvd. was shut down with police tape from traffic light to traffice light and there were cops everywhere.
Anyhoo, I was able to get my breakfast and was only 10 minutes late for work. And then I found out why the major cross street by my complex was shut down...

Apparently, some guy thought he would go out in a blaze of "glory" and decided to carjack like 4 people, shoot at police, steal a Metro K-9 vehicle (dog included), shoot the dog, crash the SUV and then kill himself.
The shootout happened about 1/2 a block from my apartment complex, and I slept through the whole thing.
In the end, I kinda wonder how much fun the guy was having while he was doing all this. I mean, obviously if you reach the point of commiting crimes like these, rationale is not a factor. So, he went on a movie-style crime spree and didn't have to go to jail. Sure, he's dead. But, I'd have to imagine death being better than jail. I think you get to sleep in when you're dead, and nobody tries to fuck you in the ass or stab you with a rusty nail.

eh, it happens. Woulda been more exciting if you hadn't slept through it, but, whatever.

Sorry I'm not out wandering the streets at 2 AM on a weeknight. I DO have a job.

Fucker shot the dog? Bastard. Too bad he took the coward's way out!

Killing a K-9 is like killing a cop. So he was going to get the lethal injection anyway.
Those cop dogs are real smart too, smarter then most of the gangsta's these days.

If the k-9 handler had gotten to him before the suicide, I think the perp would have resisted arrest....
