<br/><br/> "They're punched, kicked, gouged, dragged, run over, slashed, stabbed, spat on, bled on, bitten by dogs, bitten by people and shot. They suffer heart attacks, broken bones, sprains, dislocations and just plain abuse. When a police officer is killed in the line of duty, you'll read about it in the paper. You'll also read about it when a police officer kills or even shoots someone. What you often won't see is that officers of the law, sworn to keep the peace, regularly take a beating and worse." (RICHMOND TIMES-DISPATCH) This article describes the physical and emotional abuse suffered by police officers.
