U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force Officers were attempting to serve an arrest warrant on a career felon when the subject shot 8 members of the team killing 3. Wounding five others. One of the wounded was CMPD Officer Joshua Eyer who succumbed to his injuries hours later. Two of the dead are NC Adult Correction Officers Sam Poloche and Alden Elliott. The deceased US Deputy Marshal has been identified as Thomas Weeks. The four injured Task Force Members including CMPD Officers are expected to recover from their injuries.
This is a tragedy that not only weighs heavy on Charlotte but also our entire Nation.
This afternoon at just after 2 pm Mrs. Cedar did what 100s of other CMPD family members did, she checked in with those who know. She ran through a list of friends and family asking if they are they OK?
A buddy check just to be sure everyone was safe. The response was thankfully a short "We're OK I've got to go".
But we are not OK we are all family and we all hurt.
Prayers for all our CMPD Officers and their families, prayers for the members of our United States Marshals Service and their families. Prayers for our North Carolina Department of Adult Correction Correction Officers and their families. Prayers for our Nation.
To those who step up to form that thin blue line, we will never forget. We are forever indebted to you and your families.

Cedar Update: Its been a long hard week. We have opened our home to friends and family attending the funerals which leaves little time to answer emails or comment further. There will be time for that in the future. Right now we are taking care of those who matter most.

We lost 4 good men that day because we’re run by a bunch of incompetents! Why are we doing a high risk warrant at 1pm in the afternoon? Was it a no-knock warrant? I know we’re all afraid of the next Briana Taylor protest but shit man…. Was this tactically sound? I hope when the real media gets ahold of this there will be some questions that they have the balls to ask the traffic vest wearing chief. In the meantime, and this is directed to the hypocrites on the command staff and the DEI Mayor on down,… don’t pretend like your sad cops lost their lives… we all remember what you did and did not do when the BLM & Antifa shitbirds wanted to defund us. We remember what you did when they vilified us. We know how you really feel about white cops, so don’t pretend like you give a shit now
Amen Bob!
