Two police officers in the Des Moines area were shot and killed while sitting in their patrol cars in two separate attacks overnight, and police now have a suspect in custody, reports the Des Moines Register. He is identified as Scott Michael Greene, a 46-year-old white male. Authorities say he surrendered to a Department of Natural Resources officer without a struggle and was in the custody of the Iowa State Patrol. Police have not speculated about a motive.
The first officer, from the Urbandale department, was shot about 1:06am Wednesday at an intersection. The second officer, from the Des Moines department, was shot and killed about 20 minutes later while responding to the first shooting. A post at Heavy.com takes note of this video posted by a Scott Greene who matches the general description of the suspect. Titled "Police Abuse, Civil Rights Violation at Urbandale High School," it shows the man being kicked out of a high school football game "after being offended by the blacks sitting through our anthem."
