RIP for the Officer.
That's how it should be. Boot lashing is an art, the more the merrior especially in high crime areas where the police never gets out and conducts self inititated activity.
I used to work in the asshole part of our city where we had 3 of the 4 worst ghetto barracks housing projects. My station and swing shift (which was my shift) had 2 cops killed in the line of duty over a period of 2 years. OIS were pretty common back then also. One thing that our station learned after every OIS and LOD is that you have to go back in there and conduct business as usual in the most professional manner as possible.
