IDIOT LA COP LIED ABOUT SHOOTER

Cops Search for Nothing
IDIOT LA COP Jeffrey Stenroos will be kicked off the force for an alleged shooting hoax that sparked one of the largest local manhunts in recent memory.
Fellow officers say Stenroos was lying when he claimed a gunman shot him in the chest as he patrolled near a San Fernando Valley high school Jan 19.
It's now thought he was mishandling a firearm when he was shot.
The bullet hit Stenroos' bulletproof vest and authorities said that protection saved his life.
He was treated for minor injuries and released from the hospital later that night.
But rather than own up, he claimed that he'd been blasted by a man in his 40s with long brown hair, sparking a huge 350 man manhunt.
Nine schools and about 9,000 students were placed on lock down as the affluent Woodland Hills neighborhood near El Camino Real High School was searched.
But now he's been arrested on suspicion of filing a false police report and released on $20,000 bond.
Police Chief Charlie Beck said: "The current state of the investigation refutes Stenroos' initial account of the incident and we are now certain that there is no outstanding suspect in this shooting."
Los Angeles Police Protective League president Paul Weber said he was "disgusted" to hear about Stenroos' arrest and apologized to the public for his actions. "His lies set into motion the largest search for a suspect in recent history and inconvenienced thousands of people for hours.
"If these allegations are proven true, Mr. Stenroos is now where he belongs, behind bars."
