A suspect staged a brazen attack to break a prison inmate out of a Boise hospital overnight, shooting and seriously wounding two Idaho corrections officers, police said. A third was also shot and wounded when arriving police mistook the officer for the suspect and opened fire.

One officer was in critical but stable condition, another has serious but non-life-threatening injuries and the third was not seriously injured when mistakenly shot by an arriving Boise police officer, the city said in a statement.

    These people are considered professionals.

      Hey, bud. We all figured out how professional they were when they (police in general not this jurisdiction necessarily or specifically) refused to storm a school and take out an active shooter, instead causing more children to die because they were afraid and too busy talking on their phones, that were covered in Punisher logos.

      Not seriously injured though - the cops missed the mark, in a hospital setting. Amazing.
