Dickson City: Police Report shows confusion on gun dispute

[normanvin]

The report only seems to have officer Gallighers take on the story. It also is full of bs and is missing pertinent information. Does anyone else that was at the ocb that night see it that way?

As I told Rich..everyone of us needs to go over the police report and write down what really happened. This is crazyness.

Well fwiw, obviously we all know now that the "911 call" played on the news was NOT that at all.

And people wonder why there is a general mistrust of the police nationwide, by criminals and law-abiding citizens alike.

We wonder why there is gun control when we have morons like Patrick Murphy consuming oxygen out there.

I can't quite comprehend how someone who is sworn to an oath to protect the people and the law can go about handling a situation like this. You'd think the law surrounding firearms and the carrying of firearms would be thoroughly covered in the education process for police officers.

Because honor and personal responsibility have been bred out of urban people and people who seek to retain public positions, that's why. They have been programmed to believe that there is always someone else to blame for your mistakes and if you can't find them, lie to cover your own ass. It is disgusting.

Wow only took 10 days to get that report out, by any other business standards, this would be quite unacceptable!

Someone trying to be funny? All I get is some "Baby Glenn" dancing to the intro to Hogan's Heroes on the television.

I am SHOCKED at the amount of lies and intentionally missing info in this police report.

I know I'm the one who made the comment about this being the safest place in Scranton tonight and that was when we were outside talking. I never saw the police talk to and customer. I've never read so much BS in my life

+1, saw that too. Looks like the report was written based on what the police chief and ADA said to the press.
