Police officer dies in the line of duty after being shot in crime-ridden Oakland as woke district attorney faces recall over city's rampant violent theft
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A police officer has died in the line of duty after being shot in Oakland as woke district attorney faces recall over the city's rampant violent theft.

The officer responding to a burglary in progress was fatally shot early Friday in the Jack London Square area of Oakland.

The Oakland Police Officers' Association reported that the officer was 'ambushed and shot,' marking the 54th Oakland police officer killed in the line of duty.

Oakland Police Department's interim chief, Darren Allison, expressed the profound sacrifice of the profession, noting that the fallen officer, a four-year veteran, was part of an overnight burglary operation.

'The dangers and demands of this profession are real and come with significant sacrifice,' said Darren Allison, interim chief for the Oakland Police Department in a news conference Friday. 'Sadly, today one of our officers paid the ultimate sacrifice.

Violent crime is running rampant across the Dem-led Californian city, with business owners now comparing the area to a 'battleground' akin to wartime Vietnam.

Last month, Alameda County District Attorney Pamela Price was facing a recall as a result. Hundreds of locals have started a group, named Save Alameda for Everyone, in a bid to oust Price from her position because of her soft-on-crime approach.

Restaurants in Oakland have been losing thousands a week as diners have their cars and jewelry robbed mid meal - with locals now avoiding the city's downtown area.

#2 ^ Not just Oakland - the entire East Bay to include Richmond, Emeryville, Berkeley and and all points south to San Jose. A massive, festering sh!thole.
