Auburndale, FL
Police officer Stacy Booth (inset) responded to a 911 call from children who stated their parents were arguing. The children hung up on the 911 operator before she could get further info.
As Officer Booth approached the front door of the residence, unbeknownst to her, Michael Wayne Lester lurked behind the door with automatic weapons and over 1000 rounds of ammo. Lester fired through the front door, striking Officer Booth 2 times, once in the abdomen and another in the arm. Reportedly, a 3rd shot hit her holster and disabled her duty weapon. However, only one news source seems to have that information.
Bleeding profusely, she dragged herself next door where the neighbors gave her cover until assistance could arrive. Half dozen jurisdictions and over 20 units responded to the call. A hostage negotiator was called in and this piece of shit,
would not negotiate or listen to reason. Since he was barricaded and had an ample supply of weapons and ammo, the tactical team first set off tear gas canisters in his home and then used a fire department robot to storm the house. Lester was unconscious when SWAT went in.
Police are unsure how he received those lacerations on his face. Like they care, I'm sure.
Officer Booth remains in critical but stable condition.
Our thoughts are with her on a speedy recovery.
