The article says the MSP Trooper was shot at about 2:30 a.m. Friday while conducting a car stop. Somebody from inside the car shot the Trooper.
Prayers for the shot Trooper. He willingly stepped into the breach to keep his community safe so all the good people there can sleep soundly in their beds.

We just had a similar situation down here 2 weeks ago. Be safe out there
Dammit, Woodtv.com, the guy wasn't a "motorist killed", he was a "criminal".

From what I heard on the radio this morning, he was wounded in the arm. Hopefully nothing serious damaged (nerves/arteries/etc) and hoping it will be a full speedy recovery...
ETA: Heard a later report he was shot in the neck as well as the arm...

Perhaps the suspect thought if he acquired a fifth strike he might go to prison....
"Amerson pleaded guilty in 2006 to carrying a concealed weapon, pleaded guilty in 2007 to fourth-degree fleeing from a police officer, pleaded guilty in 2009 to possessing with intent to deliver marijuana, and pleaded guilty in 2009 to attempted unlawful driving away of an automobile.
He served about a year in jail, and state Department of Corrections records show he was sentenced to probation from November 2007 to July 2009."

I also found this recording of some of the radio traffic that was posted on YouTube...

7th District, have you heard how the officer is doing? I haven't heard or seen anything since the original news posting. Granted I am about 175 miles, southwest of where it took place.

The last thing I heard was that he is in stable condition.
