Yes, across from the police station and busy traffic corner – duh….
It’s days like this to be reminded how important the role of a police officer is in our lives. God bless none of the men and women in blue did not get shot or hurt. I back the blue, they are important men and women.
I commend our police department for their quick action.
North Olmsted you did a good job today with this
shootout. I was at the light waiting to turn on Dover
and I seen him running down Dover when the first officer tried to stop him. Thank God the bullet did not hit the officer. Keep up the good job protecting
Residents in North Olmsted.
