Earlier on in this segment, we told you about a police officer who was beaten to within inches of his life in a Camalote bar. Well, there's another case of absolute lack of respect for the law in Burrell Boom. That's where the driver of an unlicensed Mazda Tribute pulled a gun on a police officer. The Officer Commanding Rural told us more:...

ACP Edward Broaster - OC, Eastern Division Rural
"The driver of that black tribute pulled a firearm on our police officer who was stationed at Burrell Boom.

One black and silver 9mm was recovered from a yard along with a cell phone and the individual was captured and has been since charged. He will be charged today for aggravated assault and kept unlicensed firearm."
