BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- A man opened fire early Saturday at a hospital in Alabama, wounding a police officer and two employees before being shot and killed by another officer, authorities said.
Police were sent to St. Vincent's Hospital around 4 a.m. to check on a report of an armed man inside the facility. Two officers who arrived separately converged on the suspect on the hospital's fifth floor.
"When the officer encountered the suspect, there was immediate gunfire from the suspect," Birmingham Police Sgt. Johnny Williams said. One police officer and two hospital employees who happened to be in the area were wounded.
A second officer shot back, mortally wounding the suspect.
Williams said detectives were still trying to determine Saturday why the armed man was in the hospital. Authorities did not immediately release the names of the assailant or the victims.
A handful of cardiac patients and several staff members were on the fifth floor, hospital spokeswoman Liz Moore told reporters during a news conference. She said the hospital is secure and stable, and patient care was not interrupted.
Fuck this planet.

It's not in the news yet, and I'm going off 4th hand information. But I was told a few hours ago that a man in Cleburne County shot his wife and kids. Was stopped by an officer, got out of the vehicle firing an assault rifle shooting the officer, and was later stopped by either Anniston PD or Calhoun County and killed.

Some of that was in the news. Not the wife and kids part.

I think it will get worse the closer we get to the 21st.

It gets harder everyday for me to not shoot fuckers on principle alone.

The dude was from Heflin. The initial shootings happened at a trailer park then, during his getaway, he shot a Heflin policeman. He made it to Oxford, where he was shot and killed. I drove through there just after it happened.
People are losing their freaking minds. It's gotten to the point that you have to be armed.

Sounds like a good enough reason to me.

Dude was also charged with trafficking cocaine, possesion of controlled substance, and unlawfully carrying concealed. Dude agreed to plea guilty on trafficking with a 1 year sentence and the other charges dropped. I would say this is unfuckingbelievable, but I see this shit every fucking day.
