Off-Duty Cop Allegedly Shoots Woman In Head During Road Rage Incident

[boston bean]

An off-duty Texas cop got upset at a woman for cutting him off and allegedly fired his gun into her window, hitting her in the head.

Now Precinct 6 Deputy Constable Kenneth Caplan is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, according to Click2Houston.

The woman, whose name was not released by the station, said the bullet grazed the left side of her head, allowing her to avoid a major injury.

"I feel like I got a taste of death, honestly," she told the station. "My heart was slowing down and I couldn't really breathe."

1. He needs to go to jail and never wear a badge again.

Cops like this and Wilson who can't control their emotions should have been screened out of hiring process.

Everyone else would be charged with attempted murder. The divide continues...

5. The police office was not Houston Police

Some of the constables in Texas have really slack standards for their employees
