A SWAT team killed one of the oldest men in America yesterday after the 107-year-old man wouldn't stop shooting at police officers who were responding to a domestic disturbance call at his house.
Monroe Isadore, proud centenarian and a resident of Pine Bluff, Arkansas (aka "the most dangerous little town in America"), allegedly displayed a gun to two residents of the house. When officers identified themselves, Isadore began shooting through a bedroom door at them — as he did his best Clint Eastwood, one imagines.
A SWAT team was called, and when attempts at negotiations failed, they filled the room with gas, "breached the door to the bedroom and threw a distraction device into the bedroom." When Isadore continued to shoot, the SWAT team fired back, killing him. No officers were harmed in the shootout.
