Philadelphia police officer ambushed 'in the name of Islam' | ||

...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (IS), officials have said. Edward Archer fired at least 11 shots at the officer, in an act done "in the name of Islam", police said. Despite being shot, Officer Jessie Hartnett left his vehicle and was able to return fire, striking Mr Archer at least once. Mr Archer escaped on foot but was apprehended by police shortly after. Officer Hartnett is expected to recover from his injuries "He has confessed to committing this cowardly act in the name of Islam," the police commissioner said, because he believes "police defend laws that are contrary to Islam". There is no evidence that Mr Archer, 30, of Yeadon, Pennsylvania, was working with anyone else, he said. Philadelphia court records show he was convicted of assault in March and was set to begin a prison term. He had also been convicted of forging documents in a nearby suburb. Mr Archer's mother Valerie Holliday said he is mentally ill and had suffered multiple head injuries, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported. "He's been acting kind of strange lately. He's been talking to himself . . . laughing and mumbling," she told the newspaper. "He's been hearing voices in his head. We asked him to get medical help."
