An Ohio judge was shot Monday morning outside his courthouse in what authorities called an ambush attack that ended when the judge and a probation officer returned fire, killing the attacker.

Police said a man apparently waiting for Judge Joseph Bruzzese, who sits on the Jefferson County Court of Common Pleas, ran up to the judge and began shooting when he approached the courthouse. Bruzzese drew a gun and fired at least five rounds at the shooter, possibly hitting the attacker, Jefferson County Sheriff Fred Abdalla told reporters during emotional remarks Monday morning.

“This individual laid in wait for our judge,” Abdalla said, tearing up during his remarks. “It just hurts. First thing on Monday morning, you have a judge shot in front of his courthouse … This was an ambush and an attempted murder on our judge.”

Authorities said Bruzzese was taken into surgery. His condition was not immediately known after the shooting, though the local news station WTOV9 reported that he was stable.

The suspect, who was not immediately identified by authorities, was struck three times and killed. Because a probation officer at the courthouse also shot at the suspect, Abdalla said it was not clear whether one of Bruzzese’s bullets hit the attacker, who fired five rounds.

During additional remarks to reporters Monday afternoon, Abdalla described Bruzzese as an avid hunter and sportsman. The sheriff said that years earlier, he had urged Bruzzese to carry a weapon with him for protection due to all of the “nutcases” around the country.

Maybe the greatest argument that gun control is NOT crime control, but Control. They ALL have firearms or Paid thugs With firearms, to protect Them. Where in the Law does it say, ONLY Gov. officials are deemed worthy of protection? I Can and Will protect my family against criminals without waiting 30 min. for a cop. That will never change.

Yet another reason not to relinquish your weapons.

Judge, Jury and The Executioner.

Hooray!! One for the good guys.

Based judge?

Did the judge use a Judge?

Fred Abdalla-- that would be an Anglo-Muslim!

From 2017?

But, why did he have a gun? Oh, right, because he's part if a class above the rest of us. If this happened to anyone forced to be using government services, rather than police or judges, they wouldn't have been able to return fire.

Thank you, Forefathers, for our Second Amendment Rights.

5 shots? I wonder if the Judge was carrying a judge.
