26. I think the story is BS

If you watch the video of the cop at the scene (and the pictures) there is no sign of any injuries, not even blood. In addition, physical mannerism don't indicate that the he is injured and in pain. Anybody who has ever had a head injury knows that it is pretty painful. There is no sign that he is in any pain. If he had been that seriously injured, he would not have been allowed to drive himself off in his patrol car. Either Emergency Medical Services would have been called right away (and we all know that did not happen) or someone wlse would have taken him to the hospital.

I just don't find the claim of injury to be credible.

The broken eye socket would count as significant head trauma, yes? Maedhros Aug 2014 #27

The problem with there story is the fact that the shooter avebury Aug 2014 #29
