VIDEO: LAPD Shoots from Helicopter, Kills Armed Home Invasion Suspect

Breitbart: Video has emerged of Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) Swat officers shooting from a helicopter and killing an armed home invasion suspect in Sunland on Monday.

According to the Los Angeles Times, LAPD Chief Charlie Beck said a woman alleged that she woke up to an intruder in her home. She fled out of a window and called police. When officers arrived, the suspect had armed himself, and a five-hour standoff followed. A SWAT team was called in as officers attempted to negotiate with the suspect, but negotiations failed.

  1. I’m going with ground fire here, it’s damn hard to hit something from a helicopter.
    Just a guess, I’ll wait for the autopsy, if they had full auto, all bets are off.

  2. The training articles I’ve read about aerial sniping indicate that it takes a little time to master, and that it is a lot of fun as well. I hope these boys with their Obama SWAT toys enjoyed their day and if they all went home safe it was all worth it.
