Texas police officer FATALLY SHOT in the head while writing ticket outside police HQ

Police say a cop was killed while sitting in his patrol car writing a ticket in an ambush attack.

More from the Associated Press:

A San Antonio police officer writing out a traffic ticket to a motorist was shot to death in his squad car Sunday outside police headquarters by another driver who pulled up from behind, authorities said.

San Antonio police Chief William McManus said the suspect is not known and has not yet been apprehended. A motive is not known.

“This is everyone’s worst nightmare,” he said.

McManus said the officer had pulled over a vehicle and while he was inside his squad car writing a ticket, a car pulled up behind him. He says the driver of that car got out, walked up to the officer’s driver-side window and shot the officer in the head. The man fired a second time, then walked back to his car and drove away, McManus said.

The officer, a 20-year veteran of the force, was pronounced dead at a hospital.

Of course the media won’t rush to blame the “culture” of hatred against police that has been encouraged by the left and Democrats as they do whenever a killing can be tenuously linked to the right. Please pray for the family of the murdered officer.

UPDATE:

San Antonio PD have released this picture of the suspect:

From Fox News:
