Stabbed officer

On Thursday, one of our Miami police officers was stabbed in the face by a patron at the Magic City Casino.

The officer discharged his firearm to protect himself as well as to protect the public.

I want to thank Magic City personnel for the immediate aid rendered and the Casino’s complete act of professionalism.
