Wednesday morning feel good stories
Once again, Chief Tango sends us our feel good stories. The first comes from Pennsylvania;
Investigators tell Action News former Colwyn cop Stephen Rozniakowski was armed with a gun, police radio, and a bullet proof vest when he kicked the door in at the home on the 600 block of Glenfield Avenue.
He allegedly shot dead Valerie Morrow, then shot her 15-year-old daughter once in the arm.
Morrow’s husband, a part-time Morton police officer, was awakened by the gunfire.
Delaware County District Attorney Jack Whalen explains, “Tom Morrow, at this point hearing the commotion, hearing the gunfire, reached into his nightstand next to the bed, pulled out a revolver and started returning fire.”
When he ran out of bullets Morrow jumped out of a second floor window, breaking his ankle.
Motive appears to be jealousy, according to sources. Valerie Morrow and Rozniakowski had at one time been romantically involved.
The late Valerie Morrow had filed a protection order the day before which had been served the evening of the shooting. But, I’ve heard that’s just a piece of paper.
The next story comes from Florida;
Neighbors told Channel 9 a resident spotted a man trying to break into vehicles in the neighborhood. Investigators said the resident alerted an off-duty deputy who lives in the area.
“I just woke up to my wife and stepson saying there was gunfire and to get down,” said resident Jeremy Santos.
According to police, the deputy confronted the alleged burglar and opened fire when he became violent.
“He was telling him to keep his hands out and get back,” said neighbor Dwight Leavel.
The suspect, later identified as 32-year-old Wilford McCloud, was taken to a nearby hospital in serious condition.
Mister McCloud had a pretty long history with the local authorities, a career that has come to an end for a little while, I’m guessing.

But, but… Six bullets is more than enough. It only takes one to kill a person. /sarc off
Good to see both perps needing treatment and in custody.
Too bad both aren’t doing the eternal dirtnap. Hopefully the murderer gets the needle – as I recall, PA still has the death penalty. But since he’s an ex-cop, even if he doesn’t I’m guessing he won’t fare particularly well in prison.
Too bad to hear about the innocent victim buying it. May God comfort her family and friends.
I don’t feel too good about that first story. I might feel a little better if that rotten SOB dies from his injuries or receives the death penalty, but right now it’s just a sad story.
Agreed. But at least the perp is behind bars.
And, Bubba and Tyrone are awaiting the arrival of Rozniakowski.
