Men Who Shot Cop, Left Him Paralyzed And On Ventilator Get A Dose Of Karma In Court

Two officers reportedly responded to three men trying to rob three people outside of Caesars casino, which prompted a shootout. One of the suspects, 25 year old Jerome Damon, was killed in the incident. Officer Jostle Vadell, 29, was rushed to the hospital in critical condition but was later considered stable.

“Our hearts are heavy at this hour, but our resolve to captured these suspects remains undeterred,” New Jersey PBA president Patrick Colligan said in a statement following the incident. “We ask for prayers for the officer, his family, and the Atlantic City Police Department.”

In court, suspects Demitrius Cross and Martel Chisolm walked into the court room to find a room full of police officers who showed up to honor their brother in blue.

Officer Vadell’s wife gave an update on her husband’s condition on Facebook.
