O'FALLON, Mo. • Deputies shot and killed a man who shot two deputies in an ambush early today and stabbed a police officer who was trying to capture him after a long manhunt near O'Fallon, the St. Charles County sheriff said. One St. Charles County deputy was shot in the wrist; the other was shot twice in the arm and hit by flying glass after bullets shattered a window on his patrol car at about 1 a.m. today. Their injuries were not life-threatening.
Then, at about 5:30 a.m., a St. Louis County police officer who was part of that department's SWAT team was stabbed by the suspect as the man confronted a team of searchers. The SWAT member was stabbed in the shoulder; he was wearing heavy gear, and the wound wasn't life threatening, said Sheriff's Lt. David Tiefenbrunn. Just as the officer was stabbed, other officers in the group fatally shot the suspect, a 61-year-old man from the Wentzville area. The officers who fired at him were just feet away, Tiefenbrunn added.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
