Internship at the PD? As in Police Department?

Just ask them to borrow a vest and a gun. Gotta get you ready for sitting in a cruiser in your body armor. Riding in on your bike in your kevlar ought to get you ready for that.

Garland police ID man accused of shooting at motorists

04:48 PM CDT on Wednesday, July 2, 2008

From Staff Reports

A 22-year-old man who may be responsible for shooting at motorists in Garland, Mesquite, Richardson and Plano was in custody this morning, Garland police said.

Thai-An Huu Nguyen faces charges of aggravated assault, endangering a child and deadly conduct, Garland police said. Bond had not been set as of late Tuesday when he was arrested.

Richardson police said they expected to file a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon against Mr. Nguyen. Plano police also said it expected to file charges. Mesquite police did not immediately return calls made by The Dallas Morning News.

Police said a gunman who shot at three groups of motorists on Sunday and one person on Monday struck again in Plano on Tuesday on the Bush Turnpike. Police had been searching for a black Honda Prelude with an oversized chrome exhaust.

Living in Richardson, working at Plano Cycling, and commuting by bike to and from work, I was somewhat on edge this morning. there seemed to be no pattern that I noticed.

girlfriend drives on the GBTP and comes home just after 7pm, so it could've easily been her that got shot at on Tuesday.

Yea, its totally not a situation to be in. Ya cant really "get the hell outta there" at that time of night. Glad they caught the tool. I guess time will tell if he was the only a$$ doing that.

That must be Addison PD.

Note: Addison is a small town with almost zero crime. LOADS of tax dollars though. They tend to buy their Officers the most arbitrary equipment (E.g. Chargers, The Cop Killer Gun (a handgun that shoots rifle rounds), and other seemingly pointless stuff..
