Ivan Vyhivskyi for the first time commented on the shooting in the Cherkasy region, in which four policemen were killed, noting that the status of a veteran does not justify a crime.

He stated this in an exclusive comment Censor. NO.

According to him, investigators and operatives with the force support of soldiers of the special police unit arrived in the village to search a person suspected of committing a serious crime.

“On the spot, the police informed him about the initiation of investigative actions. The police were ready for any development of events. Including fire contact. They were special forces fighters who had combat experience. They spoke to him calmly, taking into account his status as a war veteran.

However, he barricaded himself and did not make contact. So the police invited his brothers to communicate. At this time – and precisely these minutes became critically important – he imperceptibly left the territory of the homestead and set up an ambush near the road in a wooded area,” Vyhivskyi said.

His brothers did not find him in the house and expressed a wish that the witnesses during the search be representatives of the community, in search of whom the police officers of the community went.

They were the first victims of the suspect who shot at their car at close range – killing one and injuring the other.

“After that, he approached the wounded man and wanted to shoot him. When our police officer pointed out that he was a local POG (community police officer), and the suspect recognized him, the attacker told him, “Okay, live” and went into an ambush,” the head of the National Police continued.

The shooting of community police officers took place 500 meters from the suspect’s house.

“When the special forces, reacting to the shots, arrived at the scene of the crime, he shot the police officers from an ambush. At the same time, when our police special forces were already bleeding, but still alive, he shot them at close range. In the end, the shooter was eliminated,” he added.

According to Vyhivskyi, some people in the media are now “heroizing” this veteran.

“I read the comments and opinions of various activists and bloggers. Many do not see him as a cold-blooded killer who, realizing that a person was already wounded, deliberately and cold-bloodedly killed them.

We respect all military personnel and veterans, of whom there are many among the police, but combat status is not an excuse for intentional killings, even with such brutality,” he concluded.
