    Not knowing anything about this, I would just like to predict this may be related to the Juggalos. They love to create terror and that’s where they seem to gather, besides the family gathering. I could be way off. I’ll be watching for more news.

  2. All of rainbow Glen wad closed.

  3. I wondered why cops had that area blocked off earlier today..What is happening out here?? USE TO FEEL SO SAFE.Now it feels every week there’s a shooting or murder etc….Crazy…

  4. Cops want to shoot any body cuz they think they are the law !!

  5. Next time you are in trouble, Do Not call 911, handle it yourself.

  6. I’m so sick up people making stupid comments about how cops think they are the law! Umm yeah they are!!! If it weren’t for them things would be a lot worse. IMO only ignorant people who start the crime and don’t obey the law are the ones making those comments. Funny in all my life I’ve never had an issue with police

  7. Chuck says:

    Was it really over a parking spot? Dumb.

  8. Kris Kelso says:

    I understand it that the officer was shot at first and then returned fire. It was an off duty LAPD officer, had nothing to do with use of force issues

  9. Remember off duty or not still a cop.

  10. Lynn Vogel says:

    So, what’s happened with this story? Where’s the follow-up?
