Maryland police officer's death ignites a racial firestorm
It's hard to think of a more volatile mix: Four young black males from Baltimore City, accused in the death of a white female police officer in Baltimore County. Authorities say three of the teenagers were breaking into homes when the fourth ran the officer over in a stolen Jeep.
Predictably enough, social media, call-in radio and other forums blew up. A sampling from the Baltimore County Police & Fire Facebook page:
"I was hoping they'd kill him during apprehension. What a waste of life. He's currently breathing air some decent person could be breathing."
