Nice restraint - well done Hartford P.D. If they would have dropped him (which I wish we could do more often), we'd have a public outcry and some BS activists claiming it was a racially-biased white officer who killed the POS. We just need judges with some stones to impose FULL sentences.
gotta love it

they probably second guessed on wether or not to shoot based off of what happened to Lawlor. Let's hope that second guess doesn't cost an officer his or her life....

Another fine Hartford resident acting like a great citizen. The best part is if the police had killed him other Monday morning quarterbacks would be screaming police brutality. Enjoy prison Frankie "Vincent" Vega! You'll be there for awhile. Another career loser off the streets.

They should've shot him in the head. Now, more tax dollars to support this piece of trash.

I am sure the Lawlor shooting has an effect on the police officers in Hartford.

Unfortunately cops these days see what their brothers go through in regards to shootings even when justified and probably risk their lives at a much greater pace due to them thinking of the reprocussions. It shouldn't be that way. That being said, HPD took like 600 guns off of thugs last year, its amazing none of them got shot in the process. (Police or criminals)
Scared to shoot

You're such a disgusting liberal.. Your stupid name says it all...

Hartford Officers... Don't be afraid to protect yourselves next time.. The minority political clowns in Hartford don't care if you're shot dead by their own.. In fact, they would probably rejoice in private amongst themselves...

Criminal attempt at murder + Criminal possession of a firearm + Theft of a firearm + Carrying a firearm without a permit + Unlawful discharge of a firearm and reckless endangerment x Sheer stupidity / pi squared = MORON.

Have a nice life in Gen Pop.

Come on folks...something tells me that Frankie "I shoot at cops" Vega is not the next Pulitzer prize winner. We all know he on the fast track of being the next career loser to come out of Hartford. Can you animals at least keep your trash in your own city so the rest of humanity doesn't have to deal with it.
Hartford "the rising star" ...what a joke. Instead the motto should be Hartford, the zoo where animals roam free!

In the meantime, Hartford cops were paying the whole city back on Sunday by giving out parking tickets all over town because they were pissed off that somebody shot at them the night before! What a joke they are.

They should put Magua in a tent in the North End of Dumpford. He would square away the entire neighborhood in a week, Magua style.

What a whiner! I am expected to park where it is legal and when it is legal, and so should everybody else. The law is real simple, park where you should you don't get a ticket, park where you shouldn't you get a ticket. The more tickets given to those who don't obey the law the more revenue the City gains and the less I pay in taxes!
great job

Considering that there is a new meter maid team doing all ticketing and not the cops, I think we know where the joke lies.
