Police said the gunman approached the cabbie and demanded money about 8 p.m. The cabbie warned he would call police and the man responded: "If you call the cops, I'm shooting you and the cops."

The cabbie went ahead and called police, and pointed out the gunman to Pawlowski and his partner after they arrived, police said. As the officers approached the gunman, he lifted a .357 Magnum handgun, firing through his clothing, and striking the officer in the chest.

The MSM are still hiding the race of the perp a day later.

Police Officer Shot, Killed In Olney

A Philadelphia Police Officer died after being shot in North Philadelphia Friday evening.



Officer John Pawlowski was pronounced dead at Albert Einstein Medical Center after being shot at Broad Street and Olney Avenue.

"It's a very sad night," Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter said.

According to police, Officer Pawlowski and his partner were responding to a report of a man with a gun and a disturbance at about 8:20 p.m.

According to Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey, the suspect approached another male and asked him "how much money he had."
The man told the suspect he was going to call the police at which point the suspect replied, "If you call the police, I'll shoot you and the police."

Upon arrival, the suspect opened fire through his coat, striking Officer Pawlowski in the chest. Multiple shots were fired at Officer Pawlowski and one bullet was able to penetrate through his bulletproof vest.

The second officer returned fire, striking the suspect. The suspect was also taken to Albert Einstein in critical condition.

Ramsey said investigators recovered a .357 magnum at the scene.

Officer John Pawlowski, 25, was a 5-year veteran of the force and an officer at the 35th District. He was married and his wife was expecting a child.

Mayor Michael Nutter released a statement that read in part:

"My thoughts and prayers are with Officer John Pawlowski's family – his wife Kim and their unborn child; his three brothers Bob, Chris, and Vince; his sister Lauren; and his father John. Let them and the Philadelphia
Police Department know that they have the support of the entire City of Philadelphia in this unimaginably difficult time."

The shooting occurred only minutes away from where fellow 35th District Police Officer Charles "Chuck" Cassidy was shot on October 31, 2007 during a robbery. Officer Cassidy passed away on November 1, 2007.

Friday's fatal shooting is the 7th officer killed in the line of duty since May 2006.

Police: Career Criminal Slayed Officer

PHILADELPHIA - Police said a career criminal - with nine prior arrests for everything from robbery to assault to weapons possession - pulled the trigger that killed Officer John Pawlowski.

An irate Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey Saturday railed against a criminal justice system that would allow accused cop killer 33-year-old Rasheed Scrugs on the street.

Scrugs was due in court Monday for his most recent car theft case.

"It makes absolutely no sense that we've got people with this mind set walking the streets, not only endangering police officers but the public at large," Ramsey said at a news conference. "Lock them up. Throw away the key. Build another pris
on. Don't let 'em out."

Friday night, police said Scrugs assaulted and robbed a taxi driver at Broad Street and Olney Avenue. During the fight, the cab driver said he was going to call police, and Scrugs responded, "'If you call the police, I'm going to shoot you and I'm going to shoot any officers that respond to the scene,'" said Captain James Clark of Philadelphia Police Homicide Unit.

When Officer John Pawlowski and two other officers arrived, they asked Scrugs to take his hands out of the long jacket he was wearing but he didn't comply, Clark said. He then fired several shots from a .357 magnum in his coat pocket, fatally wounding Pawlowski.

Two other officers began firing at the suspect, hitting him several times. Scrugs remained in critical condition at a hospital Saturday, and was charged with first-degree murder, attempted murder and other counts, police said.

"He wasn't hit enough. That's the only thing that matters," said Ramsey.

Ramsey said the 25-year-o
ld Pawlowski specifically wanted to work in the busy 35th District. Seven months ago, he found himself in hand-to-hand combat with an armed suspect on a crowded SEPTA bus - a life or death struggle he recounted to Fox 29 News.

"I'm just happy everyone on the bus was safe as well as myself. My theory is I'm going home, no matter what it takes," said Officer Pawlowski in June 2008.

Last week, the police department awarded Pawlowski a medal for his valor. Days later, he became the fifth officer killed in the line of duty in six months.

"You have a lot of angry police officers on the street, and they have a right to be," Fraternal Order of Police President John McNesby said.

Police are trying to trace Scrugs' gun.They said he emptied the chamber in the gun battle, but had 19 spare bullets in his pocket - along with a sizable amount of crack cocaine.

"Rehabilitation has not kicked in. There are some people that are just not salvageable. Period. And he's one of 'em," says R
amsey.

Scrugs (a.k.a. Kevin Anderson and Rasheed Abdulghaffer) has a lengthy rap sheet that includes arrests for armed robbery, auto theft and firearms violations, police said. He served five years in state prison from 1997 to 2002, and then violated his parole and served six more months. He also had an open case for auto theft.

Why don't they ever talk about niggers "profiling" white cops to murder? Trying to live in a nigger city is self hatred. You're risking your life! Get out!

I'm begining to really hate the media for not calling out the race, of these supect creatures from hell.
