Cop kills over darts?

[RockSP]

A man at a bar in Murrieta, California ribbed an off-duty cop that he 'suck at darts,' the cop, 42-year-old Dayle Long, reportedly responded by pulling out a gun and executing him in front of a shocked crowd in an incident one man described as 'the most horrific scene I've seen in my entire life.'

Patch.com reports:
Chris Hull, a 39-year-old Temecula resident, said he was inside the bar and saw the shooting happen.

Hull said he witnessed a man walking up while Hull and a group of friends were playing darts. The man reportedly identified himself as an off-duty cop and started a discussion with the group about darts.

“We were playing darts, and he says 'I’m better at darts than you are,”' Hull said.

“My buddy says, ‘Aw, you suck at darts.’ (The man) says, ‘That’s why I’m a cop, I can do whatever I want to do.’”

Hull said his friend, identified only as Danny, asked the man, “Really, you can do anything?” The man then pulled out his gun, Hull said, and after the group repeatedly asked him to put it away he “pops three rounds into my friend Sam.”

Hull identified his friend as Sam Venettes. He didn't answer a request for Vanette's age or hometown, but said he was a "hardworking guy" who "works three jobs."

Police have not released any information on the name of the victim.

"I just watched the most horrific scene I've seen in my entire life," Hull told Patch.

"This is the worst day of my life."
It should be noted, the cop was a 10-year veteran of the force.

This is terrible. The cop must have been delusional. Are off-duty cops allowed to carry guns, let alone in a public bar?

Damn. Sounds like the cop was a ticking time bomb , I wonder if there will be more details on this.

This guy probably had some issues in his life to push him over the edge.

I believe the point of the running gag is to show that he wont be punished all that much so.........yeah. Perfect.

 

[Thundercrack85]

Considering the almost comical amounts of brutality police regularly get away with... yeah.

The guy should change his name to Walter, find a guy named The Dude and take up bowling.

Seriously, when I read the thread title and skimmed the article the scene where Walter pulls out the gun in the bowling alley from The Big Lebowski was all I could think of.

Maybe the victim just didn't understand that you don't throw on Shabbat
