MI Woman who ambushed cop at Juneteenth parade dies from return fire by cop

A Michigan woman who shot at a Flint, MI police officer at a traffic checkpoint during a Juneteenth parade in what may have been a planned ambush, may have not expected the officer to return fire. But he did and she was struck by his bullet and has since died at the hospital.

Michigan State Police is investigating following the officer-involved shooting that happened at approximately 2:14 p.m. Saturday in the city of Flint. The woman was identified by officials as Briana Sykes, 19, of Flint.

According to the preliminary investigation, the officer was working at a traffic point for the parade and "was fired upon by a lone occupant of a vehicle who drove up to him," the Flint Police Department said in a press release.

The officer, who did not have a death wish, returned fire, striking the suspect, who was transported to Hurley Medical Center, a local hospital, where she died from her injuries.

Briana Sykes

The ambush happened near a gas station on Saginaw Street near Leith Street. Poor quality video [possibly shot by Michael Moore, who lives in Flint] was circulating online and shows the cop returning fire with Sykes in her silver colored vehicle in the gas station parking lot, WJRT-TV reported.

"I saw an officer maybe 10 feet to the left of me in front of a car with his gun out," a witness, who wished to remain anonymous, told WJRT-TV. "I didn’t see if anybody shot out of the car but I did see the officer shoot into the car. I could tell that he, from his look, like he mortally wounded somebody. He instantly fell to the ground crying because, I felt, like he didn’t want to do whatever he had to do."

Yes, he had to do what he had to do.

Neither the officer nor any bystanders was injured. Michigan State Police has taken over the investigation at the request of the Flint Police Department.

The officer, whose name has not been released, nor should it, was placed on administrative leave, Fox 66 reported.

At this time, it isn't known if the Marxist group, BLM, believes Briana Sykes' life matters, but if they can make a political statement against law enforcement, we can expect to hear more from them. 

As of this posting, no windows have been broken, no bystanders shot, nor stores looted to honor the memory of Ms. Sykes, a victim of her twisted belief that all cops are evil.

California proposes taxing a human right

Sacramento -- For the first time ever, Californians will have to pay a tax on drinking water. Soon they may need to pay a tax on breathable air and sunshine as the state begins to move further to the left and financial failure looms large.

The proposed tax is 95 cents a month now, but who knows what it will be in the future as long as the state is being run by socialists? They claim the legislation is due to the  pervasiveness of unsafe tap water, but whose fault is that? Trump's?

Dirty water

The reason for the contaminated water, they say, is due to agricultural runoff (aka cow crap in the water) but rather than fixing the problem with proper drainage systems, they would rather throw money at the problem, and some of that money will undoubtedly end up in the wrong pockets.

Senate Bill 623 is supported by a coalition of the agricultural lobby and environmental groups, but opposed by water districts. It should generate $2 billion over 15 years to clean up contaminated groundwater and improve water systems and wells that should have never fallen into disrepair in the first place.

"My message is short and direct: We are not Flint, Michigan," co-author Sen. Robert Hertzberg (D-Van Nuys) said at a rally in Sacramento where demonstrators held up signs saying "Clean water is not a luxury" and "Water is a human right."

Searching for water

Many Californians know more about the water problem in Flint than they do in their own state. These are the same people who don't know who the first U.S. president was, or why we fought the Civil War, but they want those statues to come down "onnaconna it's wrong to keep them up."

Due to the fact that SB 623 includes new taxes (as is the wont of the left) to pass, it will need a two-thirds vote in each house.

"Wet my lips . . . now new taxes."

Flint, MI: jihadi scumwafer in custody

Flint, MI (Land o' Moore) -- A police officer was stabbed in the neck by a guy yelling "Allahu Akbar" at the Bishop International Airport. CNN originally reported the incident too, but only said the Muslim jihadi was yelling something in Arabic. It was only around 9 p.m. Wednesday that they admitted what he yelled.

For those of you born yesterday, "Allahu Akbar" means 'Allah is greater.' Specifically, Allah is greater than your god, as they don't tell you in the media.

A witness told MLive that he saw a man being detained by police and another officer on his knees, bleeding from the neck.

Originally, Bishop International Airport posted on Facebook that the cop was hurt but offered no details about the attack except to say that all passengers were safe and were being told to check for flight delays or cancellations.

The Muslim man, Amor Ftouhi, 50, was taken into custody, according to local media. He is a Canadian resident and lived in Montreal, but has traveled between New York and Canada quite often.

He has been charged with violence at an international airport, according to FBI Special Agent David Gelios.  Ftouhi is accused of stabbing Lt. Jeff Neville. 

A little background: the jihadi in question entered the U.S. legally through Lake Champlain, New York on June 16, then made his way to Flint's Bishop International Airport, arriving on Wednesday.

"He spent a little time in the restroom, dropped both bags and came out, pulled out a knife, yelled 'Allahu Akbar' and stabbed Lt. Neville in the neck," Gelios said.

Just another typical day of Ramadan.

To continue showing his love for Allah, Ftouhi kept yelling "Allah" several times, according to the criminal complaint.

Then he said something to the effect: "you have killed people in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan, and we are all going to die."

Yes--everyone, one day, is going to die--get over it.

When Ftouhi was apprehended, the jihadi asked the cop why he didn't kill him, the complaint said.

Thankfully, Neville is in satisfactory condition. Fortunately, the jihadi never did well in biology and wasn't aware of the location of the carotid artery.

More charges may be added to the current ones.

Authorities believe that this was merely a lone moron incident.
