While I understand a police officer wanting to stop a crime, drawing attention to yourself by opening fire from a crowded dinner table isn’t smart. (SLIDESHOW: This Blonde Bombshell Might Be The Hottest Model On The Internet)
He just turned with his weapon and started spraying. Anybody could have walked in front of him and he easily could have missed. (SLIDESHOW: 60 Times Abigail Ratchford Wore Almost Nothing)

He didn’t even catch them! He sprayed lead all over the damn place and the bad guys still got away! From the perspective of a police officer, that’s not great.
