Shootout in Rankin County

 Update: Suspect identified as Ricardo Kirk. 

Rankin County Sheriff Bryan Bailey issued the following statement. 

Approximately 5:40pm, the Rankin County Sheriff’s Department received a request for assistance from the United States Marshal’s Service in reference to an arrest warrant they were attempting to serve at 1594 Shell Oil Rd, Brandon, MS 39042.

 

Although the name of the suspect is being withheld at this time, the subject of the arrest warrant was a Wanted Person on a felony charge of Aggravated Assault with a Gun through Omaha Police Department in Omaha, Nebraska

 

The request for assistance occurred after the suspect began firing shots at US Marshals from inside the residence.

 

As additional law enforcement officers began arriving on scene it became clear the suspect had barricaded himself inside the residence alone.  Based upon the suspect’s actions, an additional request was made to have the sheriff’s department dispatch it’s armored vehicles to the scene.

 

After the armored vehicles arrived, negotiations commenced which were followed by more shots being fired at law enforcement officers from inside the residence.

 

At 8:45pm, officers on scene heard an additional single shot fired from inside the residence and could not get any response from the suspect inside.

 

After the decision was made to breach the residence, the suspect was found suffering a self-inflicted gunshot wound.  Despite the efforts of emergency medical personnel he was pronounced deceased at the scene.

 

For purposes of transparency, Sheriff Bailey requested that the MS Bureau of Investigation respond to the scene to investigate this incident.

At least all officers went home to their families.

Between this and finding out Tupac shot his own left nut off pulling his gun out of his underwear in 1994...

He needed help and he never got it. His family should had gotten him help

improvised shaped charges will make short work of bailey’s armored toys. There is a reason those APCs are all milsurp. The military was forced to adopt ablative armor like the Abrams tanks use because shaped charges fired from recoilless rifles punch right through the armor and turn the inside of the APC into a hot crucible of agony. And shaped charges are stupid easy to DIY.

That last paragraph is a hoot considering the 50+ times the bureau should have been called in over the last decade.

Rankin isn’t lost. It was never found

Sheriff Bryan Bailey: leading Rankin County’s “law and order” brand where deputies torture suspects, get federal charges, and the boss still keeps his job.

If you’re wondering how that happens look at who the county votes for. Turns out “drain the swamp” never applied when the swamp wore a badge or waved a Trump flag.

And making/possessing one is a stupid easy way to do 20 years in a federal penitentiary.

@6:58 when they outlaw shaped charges, then only criminals will have shaped charges.

unless you work in the oil and gas industry where they are commonly used on well perforation.

He's 32 years old. Blame it on his family?

"His family should had gotten him help"

Some people people refuse to accept help, no matter how many time (and how vigorously) it's offered.

Was the residence on Shell Oil Rd. by any chance the same one in this post from last month?

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
