Officer Ryan Bonaminio was shot and killed this morning while trying to apprehend a hit-and-run suspect. No suspect information at this time besides a subject in "dark clothing." This one hit home because I knew him, and he was in my senior class at my police academy, and we're the same age. It's messed up stuff, but just a heads up to my brothers in blue and tan/green on these boards. Stay safe out there.

RIP man, you'll be missed.
 
RIP to the brave fallen officer, and prayers for his family. That's completely messed up; you guys don't get nearly the credit you deserve for putting it on the line for us all, every day.

Heads up and be safe, guys - B.B.S.
 
God Speed and Good Hunting, Brother. There are many here who answer the call. You're not alone or forgotten.

RIP.

That's really sad. I hope they catch the guy.

It would be a shame if he didn't get brought to justice.

Much respect to all police officers. My uncle is a local officer here and he's been in a few scary situations over his 25 years on the force.

Stay safe out there, for sure.
 
RIP. Prayers sent to a fallen officer and his family. Sorry you lost a friend and brother in arms.

RIP. Take care of YOURSELF, Jon.

Doc.
 
I am sitting in MiMi's cafe in Nonsense fine town right now. I Texted him and offered to buy him lunch. He met me here and about the time he ordered an iced tea he got a call and had to roll. Shit these guys can't even take lunch.

Be careful Jon and all our boys in blue.

It sickens me to see fine young officers lose their lives in the line of duty. I've lost a friend in a shooting...It hurts to this day. Praying for the family and fellow officers that must struggle to find peace in this tragic incident.

RIP Officer Bonaminio
 
Damn, this heats me up.
My thoughts are with his family.
IIt always wounds a little deeper when it's someone you know, but it's never any easier to lose one of your own.
 
Thoughts and prayers to the family.

Stay safe out there, Jon and all the rest of the fine LEOs out there.
 
RIP Officer Ryan.

Sorry to hear about a loss so close to you Jon, make sure you surround yourself with your closest family and friends.
 
Our prayers and thoughts for the fallen officer's family.

All of you LEOs stay safe.
 
It's so easy to forget what a great risk Police take to keep us safe. RIP and stay safe.
 
Thanks you guys who posted here, and thanks to the members who PM'd me their condolences. I'm sure this isn't anything of consequence to some members here, but it's something important to me.

I got selected to assist in escorting Ryan's body from the Coroner's Office to the Riverside Police Department. It was very humbling to be able to participate in it. There was approximately 30 patrol units, 1 airship, and about 15 motors that participated in the 15 mile trek. Everyone rolled with lights only, no sirens, and we shut down a freeway and downtown Riverside in the process. I snapped a couple photos, but nothing can compare to being there in your car, alone in your thoughts.

After this incident, it was good to see a handful of good citizens still care about their law enforcement officers. Some guy decided to roll up next to our convoy and point and laugh at us, which was pretty fucked up. Some people just weren't raised right. It's like the same people who held up signs at the Seattle Officers' funeral saying, "They got what they deserved." Anyways, here's some photos:
