I just got home and am winding down from this.....Spent the afternoon digging out- putting tires on and trailing in a grain auger and just when we hit town emergency vehicles were going everywhere... The neighbor I'd loaned the auger to dropped me off at my vehicle at the Waterhole- and thats when my wife called and said "I'm OK- I wasn't one of the ones shot- we're in lockdown- don't leave town until I call you because they think the shooter (s) are in the area of our house or headed that way..
Turns out the lady EMT killed is also the Clerk of Court- who's dad is my bestest friend and who was my Administrator of the Jail (now retired)- the nurse shot was a sweetheart who's husband I've known since he was born-who was the other one shot (but I heard they will be OK)-and the real scarey part is the next one out of that hospital door when this nut went shooting was going to be my wife- who had to hesitate for a few seconds to push the button on the computer to send some C-Scans to the Radioligist...When she got to ER the ER Doctor was ducking bullets trying to get back inside :shock: THANK YOU LORD......
Anyway the Law Enforcement did a fabulous job--somewhere along the line somebody poked a bullet hole in this nutcase- they shutdown the town- nobody moved anywhere- called in all the mutual agreement officers- dogs- and helicopters-- tracked his bloodtrail all night until about midnite ( my son was in involved in the that- I did teach him a little) and the really scarey part was this guys trail went right down the road and beside the house where 2 of my grandkids were- with their other grandparents- but I had let them know- and they had the grandkids in the basement- and old Grandpa Nolan (an old Miles City man) was watching the door with a shotgun... They caught up with him about a 1/2 mile away from there (which is only about a mile and half- 2 miles from my house)-- apparently from what I hear tonight he attacked one of the tracking dogs and his handler with a knife- shots were fired- ambulance called- ambulance code returning to the hospital was Code Black- which means no trial :clap: .....
ATTA BOYS for law enforcement and training- it showed tonight.....I used to catch hell when I was Chief Deputy and when I was Sheriff for spending money and time on SWAT training and equipment-- more than one councilman and commissioner and taxpayer told me those things don't happen in our area :???:
The other thing that showed tonight was that everyone knows that I don't walk across the street without packing-- I had more women loving me up and willing to spend the night with me and offering a place to spend the night in town than I ever had before :wink: :lol:
I don't mean to make light of this- Hell of a tragedy just befell our community
-- GOD works in mysterious ways- and I thank him Grandma had to spend them few seconds pushing the buttons on her computer.... We were going to work cows tomorrow- but instead might just have a big family gettogether to thank the good old Lord......
