7th Division Officers Involved in Fatal Shooting After Responding To Burglary Call

Obviously you don't know, because he has never been in the west end or Shivley....Shivley has their own department. Officer Hodgkins always rode Dixie Highway area until he went to the 7th division! You don't know as much as you think! Like I have said many times, I can definitely understand the family mourning their loss as would anyone, but I don't understand making up excuses for his wrong doing. Officers have to be able to handle those situations in order to do their job, but to someone who doesn't do the job day in and out, you wouldn't understand. It's a very tragic thing that happened and I wish that officers didn't have to make those kinds of decsions in a split second but that just happens to be the job. I am sorry for his families loss, but he chose the outcome, Officer Hodgkins just chose to go home to his family that evening.
