My friends: I post this on the tactics & training page because I am a curious man, an old graying ex-cop who tries to draw lessons from the life around him.
Here's the article:
http://www.ohio.com/mld/ohio/2006/07/01/news/14946556.htm
In case the link won't work (I don't know as much about computers as I should) here's the nutshell:
A 17 year old committed armed robbery while wearing soft body armor given him by a juvenile parole officer in Akron. After the robbery he shot a customer in the leg.
It appears the goblins that prey upon society's sheep are adopting the useful adjuncts that we, the sheepdogs, have been using to good effect.
I will leave it to wiser heads than I to suggest proper training/tactics to reflect this event.
