Detective interrogates murder suspect for six hours before realising he’s dying from being shot in eye
Had the suspect been rushed to hospital instead of being interrogated, things would have been very different.
Naturally, the police always want to question a suspect they believe may have committed a murder to ensure justice is served.
However, with this particular case, officials should definitely have allowed the suspect to go to hospital before the questioning commenced.
This case is a real crazy, hard-to-believe one, but also one filled with a lot of sadness, too.

The unusual case takes us back to 2006, where Ryan Waller was the victim of a violent break-in that changed his life forever.
Ritchie Carver – a former roommate and friend of Waller – and his father Larry Carver decided to break-in after an initial bust-up.

Even the break-in was unusual, as Ritchie went to the front doorbell and rang it – not much of a break-in if you ask me.
Nevertheless, what happened next was truly tragic.

As Waller got up to see who was at the door, he knew trouble was on the horizon so kept it firmly shut.
But Ritchie managed to shoot Ryan through the door, hitting him twice in the head, allowing him to proceed through the apartment in Phoenix, Arizona.
Ritchie went through the home and shot Waller’s girlfriend Heather, who was sitting on the sofa – she was pronounced dead at the scene.
The police were called to the property after Ryan’s parents became worried when he didn’t show up for Christmas dinner.
Ryan – who was just about holding onto life – said that he didn’t remember what had happened when questioned by police.

Of course, that is understandable, as the lad had just been shot in the head – but police didn’t believe him.
In footage from the interrogation, Ryan can be seen holding his eye with a number of horrible wounds on his head.
Despite his obvious pain, Ryan managed to identify Ritchie Carver and his dad as the gunmen.
It wasn’t until hours later that Ryan was rushed to hospital, after contracting an infection that could have been avoided had he received proper and timely care.

As a result, Ryan lost some of his brain, his left eye, and experienced seizures for years.
Those frequent seizures led to him losing his life just a year later in 2007.
The family may have found a small bit of comfort from the justice that has been served in recent years, though.
Ritchie received a life sentence without parole while Larry was also sent down to a life behind bars in 2013.
As for the officer who interrogated Ryan, he was charged with evidence tampering and fabricating stories about events to do with the case.Featured Image Credit: TikTok/@thevibesareimmaculate90

Haunting final words of Manchester terror attack suspect before being shot dead by police
Rabbi Daniel Walker heard the attacker’s final words
A Rabbi who survived the recent terror attack on a Manchester synagogue has described the final words of the attacker.
The Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue was attacked on Thursday (2 October) morning, with two people killed and the suspected attacker also slain.
Jihad Al-Shamie was shot dead by police as he attempted to break into the synagogue, with the doors being held shut by Rabbi Daniel Walker and others.
He had been on bail for an alleged rape when he carried out the attack, where he drove a car at people before attacking them with a knife, with two dead and three injured as a result of his terror attack.
One of the victims of the attack appears to have been injured as a result of police gunfire targeted at Al-Shamie, with Greater Manchester Police Chief Constable Sir Stephen Watson saying that it may have been a ‘tragic and unforeseen consequence of the urgently required action taken’.

The victims have been named as 53-year-old Adrian Daulby and 66-year-old Melvin Cravitz, with police saying that Daulby was struck by a bullet and that another person wounded was also hit.
A total of six people have been arrested as part of the investigation into the attack.
Rabbi Walker told the Daily Mail that he and several others were blocking the door to stop the knife-wielding terrorist from getting into the synagogue.
He also said that the terrorist’s final words were him shouting ‘I’m gonna get you’ to the people holding the door shut before he was gunned down.
Police said that the attacker was wearing a fake suicide vest and that, according to their investigation, he ‘may have been influenced by extreme Islamist ideology’.

However, they added that the attacker ‘does not appear to be known to counter-terrorism policing’.
The family of Melvin Cravitz said that the 66-year-old had been a ‘kind’ and ‘caring’ man who was devoted to his wife and family, while tributes to Daulby described him as ‘a lovely, down-to-earth man’.
His family said: “Adrian Daulby was a hero and tragically lost his life in the act of courage to save others.”
The family of Al-Shamie have also released a statement condemning the attack, calling it a ‘heinous act, which targeted peaceful, innocent civilians’ and which they ‘fully distance’ themselves from.Featured Image Credit: PAUL CURRIE/AFP via Getty Images

‘Stabbing’ outside synagogue in Greater Manchester as suspect shot by police
Mayor Andy Burnham described it as a ‘serious incident’
Police have swooped on a synagogue in north Manchester after a stabbing and car attack left four people injured.
Greater Manchester Police announced that a suspect had been shot by armed cops following the incident at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on Thursday (2 October) morning.
Officers were called to the scene in Crumpsall after a bystander reported that a car was being driven towards a crowd of people, according to GMP.

Four people have been injured as a result of the attack outside the synagogue.
The force declared a major incident at 9.37am, and shots were fired one minute later at a man who is believed to be the offender.
The details of his condition currently remain unclear, however, Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham said ‘it is believed’ that the man is dead, but stated that this ‘is not confirmed’.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said he was ‘appalled’ by the incident, adding: “The fact that this has taken place on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, makes it all the more horrific.”

“Members of the public are asked to avoid the area while the police continue to deal with the incident.”
Andy Burnham described the incident as ‘serious’ while speaking to BBC Radio Manchester, but reassured locals that the ‘immediate danger appears to be over’.
He praised GMP officers for their swift response while urging people to avoid the area.

“I can give some reassurance that the immediate danger appears to be over and GMP have dealt with it very quickly with some amazing support from members of the public and security at the location,” Burnham said.
