Bishop feels 'deep ache in my heart' after fatal shootings of police

Law enforcement personnel gather July 18 near the scene where police officers were shot in Baton Rouge, La. A former Marine dressed in black shot and killed three Baton Rouge law enforcement officers the previous day, less than two weeks after a black man was fatally shot by police here in a confrontation that sparked nightly protests nationwide.

BATON ROUGE, La. – Baton Rouge Bishop Robert W. Muench renewed a call for a diocesan-wide week of prayer, fasting and reflection after the latest fatal shootings in the city, which this time took the lives of three law enforcement officers.
