I'm not surprised, given the rep PG Cops had back in the day, when they use to practically terrorize Black people, and poor Whites who lived close to Blacks. Are you talking about the White PG Cop who killed a Black man in his own home, after mistaking him for a burglar, while responding to someones house alarm. It turned out the Black man was a cop who got a call from his home security company, telling him his alarm went off. He got to his house before the White cop. The White cop saw him in the window, and claimed the man turned towards him pointing his gun. So he shot him, and he died, not knowing the Black man was cop. This may not be the story you're talking about, because it happened when home alarms were fairly new. I don't know if they did it back then, but today, the security monitoring people will ask you if you want a cop called. But they will call the cops anyway if they can't reach you. That's one of the reasons I never want to be home, if the cops ever showed up to my house for a false alarm. Anyway, I think this happened in Mitchellville, across from Kettering. I think they call that Bowie now. It happened in the 90's, possibly the late 80's.
Speaking of PG. County police brutally against Black people, when you get a chance, do a google on "The Story of Terrence Johnson". This was the 15 year-old Black teenager who rocked PG. County for decades. He shot and killed two White PG. County Policemen, one known to be a racist, during an early summer morning in 1978. in the basement of the PG County Police Station in Hyattsville, after the cops were beating him, which happened rampantly to Blacks during this time. He some how got one of the cops gun from him, and shot him, then ran down the hall way in panic, while still unloading. He said he didn't even remember shooting the other cop. He was called Malcom X Junior in PG. County, and deemed the first one to strike back against police brutality. But he was found guilty of manslaughter for the shooting of the first cop, and temporary insane for the shooting of the second cop. He wounded up getting 25 years, serving 17 of them (longest time ever served by a person his age for the same crime). He was due to come to my high school after that summer. Tragically,, not long after his release, he committed suicide (questionable) after he and his older brother, who I did go to high school with, attempted to rob a bank up in Aberdeen. There was more too this story, if it happened that way at all. Or if it did, they probably pushed him. I went from hearing they were going to do a movie on his life, to hearing Howard University, of all places, wouldn't accept him because of his crime (he earned a BS degree while incarcerated), to hearing his girlfriend was giving him trouble because he was having financial difficulties.
I didn't mean to take the focus off Jemel Roberson, the brother who was killed in Chicago this weekend, but this is still related. I lived right across the street from that police station. A lot of the younger generation in PG never even heard of Terrence Johnson, and this story was published in Jet Magazine when it happened. He should never be forgotten, especially since police brutality is even worst today, and what happened to Jemel Roberson proves it.
Getting back to your post, now I do remember something like that happening again to a Black cop by a White cop. I think it happened since I moved form the DMV in 2006, but I'm not sure.
this can't be life.
)I'd run in the opposite direction too
