So sad....the officer (State Trooper Matthew Snook) had a wife and 1-year-old. I saw the procession of fire trucks & police cars on the Kirkwood Highway this afternoon 😞. They usually have an officers stationed there... Apparently the shooter just saw officer Snook there and walked up and shot him. Fortunately a county police officer was there and took him out.
