He’s finally arrested.

Minneapolis police are now facing heavy criticism for not arresting Sawchak before the shooting even though he had multiple complaints.

Members of the Minneapolis City Council, including Mayor Jacob Frey, pointed blame at the Minneapolis police department for not acting on any of the prior complaints against Sawchak and failing to arrest him immediately after the shooting. https://newsone.com/5658819/white-man-shoots-black-neighbor-minneapolis/

    Several days? Was this a siege? In any other case they’d torn down the house.

      With Christopher Dorner they burned the house down with him in it. Apparently the Minnesota police could use some training from California police.

        TBF that’s less egregious than randomly shooting up cars that didn’t even match the description of Dorner’s car.

          Just because the vehicle they shot up was the wrong make, model, year, color, and had two people in it that didn’t match the description in any way, shape, or form doesn’t mean the shooting wasn’t justified. They both had four wheels, did they not? Ok then.
