MANCHESTER (KDKA) – The SWAT team was called to a home in Manchester Monday morning for a possible hostage situation.

According to police, the incident started out as a domestic with a husband assaulting his wife around 6 a.m.

The Unions elect the democrats and they reward them with Big pensions, benefits, OT, etc. It sounds like a conflict of interest to me. Who protests for the average Joe when our health costs go up and pensions down.

What a joke. To be there is to truly appreciate it. It looks like the keystone kops. Bunch of whackers,hup,hup,hup,. Absolutely ridiculous. Plus the suspect is long gone before they get there 80% of the time. It’s like killing a a mosquito with a nuclear weapon.. I think it’s a scam to get overtime. Disgraceful.
