Killa City: Live by the sword, die by the sword

Being a cop in Kansas City isn’t all traffic tickets and DUI checkpoints, sometimes it gets pretty hairy. Take this dashboard video of an officer responding to a single-car crash with no injuries, that KCPD Chief James Corwin posted on his blog yesterday.

It starts out normal enough with the officer locating the motorist near 113th and Sycamore Terrace. Then, without word or warning, 36-year-old Exae Chavez-Guitierrez cocks his pistol and starts shooting.

Officers were cleared of wrongdoing in the case, and the police department was notified of this on Dec. 7, Corwin reported.
