Another person was shot and killed by a Metro officer last night.
A thug was robbing businesses, firing a shot every time he robbed them, the cops caught up with him at Charleston and Nellis, the thug fires at the cops and the cops respond by killing the thug.
From the Las Vegas Sun: "About 11 p.m. Friday, officers were canvassing an area after a robbery occurred when they located the suspect in an SUV parked at a gas station convenience store at the intersection of Nellis and Charleston boulevards, police said.
When officers approached the vehicle, the man pointed a firearm at the officers and fired two rounds, police said.
Officers returned fire, striking the suspect, who was taken to UMC Trauma where he was pronounced dead, Metro said."

This seems like this is a good shooting- a thug is off the streets, his DNA is no longer in circulation and no one will care, except maybe his family.
Being a cop in Las Vegas is not easy. It's not all about arresting people like Paris Hilton. The cops actually have to deal with mean and vicious thugs and they did a good job here.
