Trooper Edenhofer 10449 was still in FTO. He and his trainer responded to an “unarmed” suspect throwing rocks at cars. They got in a struggle and the suspect grabbed one of their guns shooting both Troopers. Suspect was wounded in the shoulder.

RIP Trooper Edenhofer

Very sad news. Both here and the incident in WI reported last night.

I responded to almost the exact situation 10 years ago on the interstate. Being a clueless rookie, I'm lucky my situation did not go south.


What a terrible tragedy . Pure evil at work again.

My God. When are whack jobs going to stop targeting cops?

Reading news has become too depressing.

My God. When are whack jobs going to stop targeting cops?

Reading news has become too depressing.

The suspect is a mental patient but hard to say he targeted cops based on the info in the news article.

Targeted implies something like we saw in Dallas and Baton Rouge.

This is just regular crazy having a bad day. It happens.
