There was an unfortunate incident in our community last week where a man for reasons unknown at this time was seen in a quiet community wielding a sword of some type, harassing passing cars and trash cans. The police were called and, again for reasons at this time we or anyone who has seen the story fully know, the 10-year veteran CPD officer was forced to shoot, and almost kill the man, instead of using another weapon like a Taser. There has been speculation by many that this was the use of undue force on a man who apparently was under some kind of mental distress.
