EPD officers soon located Clayton Lee Lasinski (09/11/1990) and ultimately fired numerous rounds at him. Lasinski was struck once and taken into custody. Lasinski was taken to Saint Joseph Hospital by medics where he was treated, and he is expected to survive his injury.

The officer’s names were not released until now due to an on-line threat concerning the shooting. The officers who fired rounds are:

Ron Harpham                  May 28, 1991

Abraham Jansen             November 1, 2013

Steven Linfoot                 August 1, 2013

Dustin Nantz                    February 1, 2014

Each of the officers involved in this incident have been placed on administrative duties until cleared duty.

I wonder if any of the officers said to themselves “I need a paid vacation” just moments before popping off a couple of rounds into the air.

Guest..I’m glad he wasn’t your grandson, you would’ve had him put down..hopefully this will be a wakeup call for this kid..you remember the old saying ”YOU CAN PICK YOUR NOSE BUT YOU CAN’T PICK YOUR RELATIVES”, He needs outside help , like a male mentor, not on drugs..I hope while he’s doing his time, he gets some help.

EPD scares the shit out of me. Shoot first ask questions later seems to be there guidelines. Whatever happened to Protect and Serve? I don’t have a criminal background, but still afraid of getting pulled over by them.
