Don't get me wrong. I am grateful to them for getting him and respect their service, but MAN. Is there a single one of those guys that could hit the side of a barn? Geesh!

Well, do you know what they were aiming at? Or what they were shooting?
Could have been covering fire, could even have been blanks to allow the suspect to comprehend the sheer number of officers who had him cornered.
Armchair quaterbacking the officers on the scene without knowledge of their approach is ill-advised.
I think the fact that they took him alive speaks volumes about the professionalism and ability of those involved.
Would have been pretty easy to have just wasted him in the bottom of that boat.
That would not have allowed any further gathering of information from him.
Kudos for bringing him in alive.
