BANK HOLDUP: Veteran Officer Fired Shots
Well said "nwareader" I wish that the community knew what kind of person Detective Williams really is before they snap to the "trigger happy, rogue cop" judgment. TRUST me, Detective Williams is no “Dirty Harry”. He was a paramedic for over 10 years, he started a helicopter rescue squad, he does EXTENSIVE work with the Peace at Home Family Shelter, he is a leading advocate against domestic abuse and crimes against children, he has been instrumental in changing domestic abuse laws here in Arkansas, he even teaches officers how to deal with handicap people…I can go on! All I’m saying is he’s not some “trigger happy rogue cop” like some have suggested. He is the kindest person I’ve ever known. Of course this is hard, but unless you are put in his situation, you can’t judge him or his actions. He felt there was an immediate danger and he followed proper police protocol. I agree…At least the good guys came home safe!

BANK HOLDUP: Veteran Officer Fired Shots
It's mandatory to put an officer on paid administrative leave. It's NOT proper police protocol to shoot out tires! Detective Williams used his best judgment, and possibly saved the life of a citizen or fellow officer.

BANK HOLDUP: Veteran Officer Fired Shots
Unarmed? He was using his vehicle as a potentially deadly weapon! I also know Detective Williams. He is a wonderful person, police officer, and true pillar of our community. As far as a "sweet young man." The guy was robbing a bank and trying to run people over...I support Detective Williams, and I know the families of the officers and citizens we was trying to protect feel the same way. Hang in there Dave!
