Blue on Blue action, baybay
Two Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies staying at separate sites on a Southern California campground were arrested after authorities said they pulled guns on each other and fired them into the air during a dispute over loud music.
No one was hurt, but Chino police said Dejay Barber, 44, of Mira Loma, and Matthew Rincon, 24, of Ontario were arrested for suspicion of negligent discharge of firearms.
Police spokeswoman Michelle Van Der Linden said Tuesday the two were released to the custody of Los Angeles County sheriff’s officials.
The deputies could not immediately be reached for comment. Sheriff’s spokesman Steve Whitmore said they were placed on paid leave while the case is investigated.
Whitmore said the pair allegedly brandished their handguns in a threatening manner and fired multiple rounds into the air.
It is a good thing LA County is moving to the S&W M&P. Cultists generally have better discipline.
I did love my M&P when I had it…
Paid leave? For that kind of behavior?

That seems to be the punishment progression. “Paid leave” is just a step above being arrested and sent to jail themselves.
