Crime

If you happen to be a baseball fan who has been watching the playoff games recently you may have noticed some intentionally jarring political advertisements popping up between innings. They depict some of the grisly crimes that have been captured on security cameras around the country recently as the ongoing crime crisis continues to spiral out of control.

Chilling bodycam footage captures the moment a wounded Bristol cop shoots dead the crazed Connecticut man who fatally gunned down two other officers.

The dramatic police video includes the sound of bullets flying and a woman hysterically screaming in the background while police Officer Alec Iurato, who is already wounded by cop killer Nicholas Brutcher, limps around the side of the attacker’s Redstone Hill home, gun in hand, as he radios for backup.

In Bristol, Connecticut this week, two police officers were murdered and a third was wounded by gunfire in what was clearly an ambush after a phony 911 call was received. Thankfully, the wounded police officer, rather than retreating, returned fire and killed the attacker, saving the public the bother of a trial. This would obviously be grim news under any circumstances, but the attack does not appear to be just some random, one-off act by a maniac.

Ghislaine Maxwell has spoken from a US prison cell about how she feels “so bad” for her “dear friend” Prince Andrew.

In her first lengthy interview since her conviction on sex-trafficking charges last year, Maxwell said she still cared about the Duke of York, who has been stripped of royal duties over his relationship with the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Speaking to the Israeli-American documentary filmmaker Daphne Barak, Maxwell said: “I feel so bad for him. I follow what is happening to him.’’

Police in California say they have caught a suspected serial killer responsible for a handful of murders that have haunted the Stockton and Oakland areas.

Authorities say they apprehended the suspect, identified as Wesley Brownlee, 43, just as he was about to claim another life.

Stockton Police Chief Stanley McFadden said on Saturday, ‘Early this morning he was on a mission to kill, he was out hunting.’

Jacob Hoggard is facing years in prison for sexually assaulting an Ottawa woman in her early 20s, regardless of how much of a public danger a judge finds the former lead singer of Hedley poses to the public.

The Crown is seeking a sentence of six to seven years in prison, arguing that Superior Court Justice Gillian Roberts should find that Hoggard, 38, repeatedly raped the young woman in downtown Toronto hotel room over hours in November 2016.

Three SWAT officers and one civilian were shot this past Wednesday at approximately 6 a.m. on North 10th Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The policemen were shot by a 19-year-old murder suspect while serving a homicide warrant.

The officers were listed in stable condition at Jefferson University Hospital. The civilian had a gunshot wound to the head and subsequently died.

Scammers posing as Canadian immigration lawyers have targeted Facebook groups with tens of thousands of users, a new report reveals.

The posts, documented in a new report by the Tech Transparency Project (TTP), the research arm of watchdog group the Campaign for Accountability, have been flagged as potentially fraudulent by Latin American and Canadian authorities but continue to proliferate.

Purporting to be authored by Canadian immigration lawyers, the posts claim that Canada is recruiting more than 400,000 people for a jobs program that will grant those accepted an immediate work permit.

Turns out a group of suspected armed carjackers accused of terrorizing Toronto are too young to legally drive.

But apparently they’re not too young to hold a gun to people’s heads and demand their car or cash.

I wonder what kind of music they like?

The call to South Simcoe Police Service came from a grandmother who was asking her grandson be removed from her home after causing a disturbance.

Originally, this was not a gun call. But there are no routine police calls.

A 23-year-old man who died following an exchange of gunfire with police inside an Innisfil, Ont. home has been identified.

Chris Doncaster was pronounced dead on scene following a shooting inside a home near 25th Sideroad and 9th Line on Tuesday night.

South Simcoe Police say two of their officers have died in the line of duty following a shooting in Innisfil, Ont. on Tuesday night.

The founder of the online group “Diagolon” remains in custody after being denied release following a bail hearing in Saskatchewan.

Jeremy MacKenzie was arrested on September 29 in Cole Harbour, N.S., on a Canada-wide warrant related to charges laid by the Mounties in Saskatchewan in July.

Violent crime remains intolerably high, but the left wants you to think that perception is just a concoction of right-wing media.

After more than a decade of violent crime decreases with just a few interludes, crime has shot back up to levels not seen since the early 1990s.

When the left acknowledges this fact, it often does so by tying the violent crime increase to the sale of guns. However, there’s no evidence that the additional crimes are being committed by law-abiding gun owners.
