News Zealand's police force is mourning the loss
of an officer killed in the line of duty.
Wilkinson and another officer were on the property as part
of an operation which was targeting a suspected methamphetamine
operation.
The plain clothes officers were installing a tracking device in
a vehicle when they were disturbed by two offenders from inside the
house. The men got into a vehicle and pursued the officers for 75
metres down the road.
Wilkinson, who was not wearing a bullet proof vest, was then
shot in the chest. His 44-year-old colleague was beaten and shot
twice and was wearing a stab resistant vest.
RIP.
Killed by high-powered air gun.. shit.
