Reply to comment by InflamedLiver in Sources: Brackenridge Police Chief Justin McIntire killed, another officer injured in shootout with suspect by swizzcheez

Sounds like the suspect was killed by Pittsburgh police:

> Police say the suspect is 28-year-old Aaron Lamont Swan. Sources say he was killed in a shootout with police in Pittsburgh's Homewood neighborhood on Monday. 

All in all, what a waste of lives.

Yeah, people who kill cops (or are even alleged to have done so) rarely get taken in alive

He was. He was shot in the head just like he did to Chief McIntire. The whole thing is horrible. When I heard there was an active shooter in Brackenridge I was stunned. I live 5 minutes up the road and the person who shot the officer doesn't even live anywhere near Brackenridge. He was probably selling drugs. It's sad he chose to end the officers life over being picked up on a warrant. Now they're both dead. To think of how differently it could have gone.
