Default So why no mention of Perry Stevens in mainstream media ?

Quote:
East Baton Rouge Sheriff's spokesman Greg Phares says Officer Brian Harrision
was escorting a funeral procession Friday when he pulled Temple over and wrote
him a ticket for breaking into the procession. According to Phares, that's when
Temple attacked Harrison. Police say Perry Stevens was walking outside of the
Auto Zone on Greenwell Springs Road when he heard Harrison yelling for help.
Harrison was reportedly on his back with Temple on top of him. That's when
Stevens went to his car and grabbed his .45 caliber pistol.

News items like this only get reported locally, rarely nationwide coverage.

Gee, I wonder why....

Took about 3 reads to get 'Louisiana resident Perry Stevens armed himself and assisted a police officer to make an arrest'.

Nope, never happened. It isn't in the papers here, so must not be true. Bleah.

The best part was "no charges have been filed"

I was looking over Perry Stevens photo taken shortly after
he shot the bad guy... the photos kinda small, but it looks
to me like he has a neck brace on.

If so, even more impressive that he didn't hesitate to help
the officer, despite his existing injury.

Perry Stevens:


The police officer is lucky Mr Stevens heard him yelling for help...
the bad guy seemed determined to kill the officer.
