The report found that from January to July 20 this year, 14 police officers were shot and killed in ambushes, seven while stopping a suspicious person and five were killed while “executing a tactical arrest or high-risk warrants.”

Both officers were gunned down in their patrol cars after responding to a report of gunfire in Des Moines.
