    Shoot him in the arm.. the leg?

    Shoot him in the arm. Hope you hit. Wait to see if it stops him. If it doesn’t aim at the arm again?

    Sure why not just shoot the knife out of his hand like Clint Eastwood

    People here dont like when you ask the nationality of an offender.

    Mainly because be someone be Brazilian, Ukranian, Syrian, Jamaican, Kenyan, Azerbaijani they are the offender. If you abduct someone or threaten a garda you face consequences regardless of nationality. Nationality doesn't diminish or enhance the crime in anyway.

    I'm in no way bashing Gardai here btw just asking a question. It mentions in the Mirror that he was shot in the head. Isn't it usual police protocol to aim for the chest and/or legs to disable a threatening suspect?

    Police are trained to kill not wound

    If you were to ask me to draw a creep I’d probably draw him sitting on the bench in his jumper just like the Facebook picture

    Try, miss and be stabbed? We're not talking about movie marksmen here.

    But it sometimes diminishes the length of an offenders sentence.. I dont get why people have a problem when others question nationality, its a perfectly acceptable question to ask.

    No, if they shoot, they aim for the largest part of the body which is the stomach. Less chance of missing.

    I suspect they are trained to shoot for mass and to kill.

    Just as an example so he does that, shoots him in the arm, misses the shoot and the guy get's him right in the neck with the knife.

    There's an easy way in life to avoid these situations. One don't abduct people and secondly don't produce an knife to an armed Garda.

    I think on this site, there are people who will just disagree with the Garda in all states of what they do, if the Garda was dead, it would be there fault cause they didn't shoot him or shot him in the arm, and he got away and went on to cause more mayhem, or kill himself.

    Either way it's tragic, for both families, I hope the girl is found safe.

    I am going to leave it there and just continue to read the comments.

    Really? poor service? they have been probably asked what information to release and most likely following that request.

    I’m not familiar with Facebook somebody showed me it and said it was him. I could be wrong.

    Hopefully there's something on his phone or computer that leads the Gardaí to the girl.

    Yeah because throwing out "facts" before they are confirmed really provides a good service.
    Good news sources will release confirmed information and will work with the authorities to ensure that the release or withholding of information does not impact on an ongoing situation. Let's not forget, as far as we know there is still a missing persons case active and concern for that person must be extremely high given what has unfolded.
