- 1:46Speaker 2: the South Florida Police Benevolent Association for attempting to have
- 1:49Speaker 2: the Miami Dade County police indicted by a grand jury.
- 1:53Speaker 2: The officer's names have not been made public, and the
- 1:55Speaker 2: union has not stated what charges the officer's face. Our
- 1:59Speaker 2: friends with the Maya Ammy Harold were the first to
- 2:01Speaker 2: break the story of the indictment. The tragedy started when
- 2:04Speaker 2: cousins Lamar Alexander and Ronnie Jerome Hill, both forty one
- 2:08Speaker 2: looted the Regent Jeweler store in the Coral Gables neighborhood
- 2:11Speaker 2: of Miami. When police arrived at the business after being
- 2:14Speaker 2: called by a silent alarm, they stated that gunfire was
- 2:17Speaker 2: coming from inside the building. A ricocheting gunshot struck a
- 2:20Speaker 2: store employee in the head. It was as twenty seven
- 2:23Speaker 2: year old Frank Ordonez was delivering packages that the robbers
- 2:26Speaker 2: hijacked him in his truck. As the suspects flood into
- 2:29Speaker 2: a nearby neighborhood, Alexander and Hill led officers from a
- 2:33Speaker 2: number of agencies on a lengthy pursuit into southern Broward
- 2:36Speaker 2: County during rush hour, dodging traffic signals and barely escaping collisions.
- 2:40Speaker 2: Television news helicopters were drawn to the chase, and they
- 2:43Speaker 2: started transmitting live nationwide broadcasts of it. The drivers and
- 2:47Speaker 2: passenger side doors of the ups van were partially open,
- 2:50Speaker 2: allowing firing to occur while the vehicle was in motion
- 2:54Speaker 2: at a busy intersection in the Pembroke Pines area of
- 2:57Speaker 2: Fort Lauderdale. The van eventually came to a stop in
- 2:59Speaker 2: the sun lane, stuck behind a line of cars waiting
- 3:02Speaker 2: for the light to turn Green. Witnesses told our friends
- 3:04Speaker 2: with the Associated Press that as officers then dash between
- 3:07Speaker 2: cars in the direction of the van, gunfire suddenly erupted. Ordnas, Alexander,
- 3:12Speaker 2: and Hill were all killed. In the delivery van, a
- 3:15Speaker 2: stray bullet killed seventy year old Richard Cutshaw as he
- 3:18Speaker 2: was driving by. It is unknown from the investigation if
- 3:21Speaker 2: Cutshaw and Ordonas were shot by the robbers, the police,
- 3:24Speaker 2: or both.

- 3:29Speaker 3: officials for on duty killings in the previous forty years,
- 3:33Speaker 3: making it extremely rare. Only one of the policemen had
- 3:36Speaker 3: been found guilty even then. Now to New York State,
- 3:40Speaker 3: where a retired police officer found guilty of four murders,
- 3:44Speaker 3: including the torture and strangulation of a man for drug money,
- 3:48Speaker 3: has been handed four consecutive life sentences behind bars. Once again,
