A Louisiana Black man suspected of killing two people Monday, and kidnapping a baby, died in a shootout with police who refused to let him kill them. Rather than firing their guns in the air, or shooting him in the leg, or using a taser with a very long wire, they shot him dead as he shot at them.
For reasons unexplained, Black Lives Matter did not violently protest the incident and many media outlets were busy doing something else.
The infant has been taken to a hospital and is in stable condition.
Eric Derell Smith, 30, is suspected of killing two people Monday afternoon died in a shootout with police after he fled the murder scene with his 4-month-old baby in his lap and headed for Mississippi.
Biloxi Police Chief John Miller said that Smith died Monday afternoon. Smith's infant daughter was taken to a hospital.
Deputies with the East Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office responded to a 911 "hang-up call" around 11:30 a.m. Monday in the 2000 block of Richmond Street in Baker, Louisiana, about 11 miles north of Baton Rouge.
When deputies arrived on scene, they found two people dead in an apparent shooting. The suspect had fled the scene with an infant child.
"Right now our top priority is locating that child safely," Sheriff Sid Gautreaux said in a statement earlier.
Smith was stopped on I-10 in Mississippi and a shootout with police ensured, WLOX reported. Smith was reportedly holding the child in his lap when he fired at police while being chased, according to the outlet.
Authorities said the shooting stemmed from a domestic incident that included two family members.

Fortunately no police were hurt and no social workers showed up to lighten the mood.
