JUNCTION, TX — The gunfight in Junction yesterday morning involved more than gunfire between law enforcement and the suspect running from an El Paso 7-Eleven murder during a robbery.
According to multiple sources, Kimble County Sheriff Hilario Cantu shot an innocent civilian during the gunfight. The civilian was not killed.
The Kimble County Sheriff’s Office referred us to the Texas DPS for information.
According to the Texas DPS, the shooting of the civilian bystander happened during a vehicle pursuit. DPS said an officer with the Kimble County Sheriff’s Office shot at a vehicle similar in appearance to the suspect’s vehicle.
Is that the way this works? Shoot at all similar cars?
I have to confess that tactic had never occurred to me. Shoot at all cars matching the description of a suspect. They could end up with a lot of dead innocent folks, but hey, as long as they get their guy, they can call it a win, right? As long as they get to go home safely at the end of their shift. That’s what really matters.

Hey…..compared to the LAPD this cop is a rocket surgeon. At least the car he shot at was SIMILAR to the suspect vehicle. In LA when they were looking for former cop turned vigilante Christopher Dorner a dozen or more
LAPD morons shot over a hundred rounds into a BLUE Toyota Tacoma with TWO Hispanic WOMEN in it……when the vehicle they supposedly driven by
Dorner was a GRAY Nissan Titan…..and Dorner was a LARGE BLACK MAN.
So by comparison this is truly NO BIG DEAL. And also the guy sending rounds downrange indiscriminately has a badge and has been sprinkled
with the magic fairy dust of “government authority” so he can DO NO WRONG.

Dorner is what came to my mind as well. Every Black History Month I have a kind thought toward Officer Dorner.

Cops are civilians, too, unless they are military police. To call citizens civilians is to widen an already insurmountable gap between the coercive class and the mundanes.
