Shot point blank in the head (execution style). I feel for the officer, child, mom, and witnesses.

VIDEO: Walmart hostage ends in suspect’s death | WTVR.com

Police in Oklahoma are speaking out about last week’s hostage standoff at a Wal-Mart there. A man held a two-year-old girl hostage, until police shot and killed the suspect.

But Clabes said those efforts (negotiations) failed and Wallace started a countdown to harm the child, even counting down near zero.

“We waited until the last second in our opinion to use deadly force,” said Clabes.

A negotiator shot Wallace.

“When he took that shot he made sure he was at point blank range to make sure there was no ability to harm that child,” said Clabes.

“It’s sad. It’s sad that it even had to happen but overall i think it ended the way it needed to end,” said Parker, who also said he is not the hero.

I too grieve for the family of the little girl as well as the little girl herself. That is something she has to live with for the rest of her life. Hopefully somehow she is young enough not to remember.
