Re: police shooting - justified?
I have seen another longer video on this one.The bad guy rounds the corner looking for the cop that was behind him possibly to ambush him when the other cop suprised him. The bad guy had his other hand ( right hand )on a gun tucked in the small of his back, and if you watch closely he was pulling it out as the officer was telling him to put the rifle down. The other officer behind him sees his partner about to get shot, yells gun and shoots the suspect, after the suspect is on the ground, his right hand is still gripping the pistol that was concealed in the small of his back that he was about to use on the officer. OR he was about to comply and did not tell the officers he has two of them dropping one of them and grabbing for the second to put it down when the cop preceives the threat to his partner and yells gun and shoots. I am sure his dept. ruled it as justifiable. In my experiance when a bad guy has 2 guns, he will drop the first one and keep his hands away from the area of the 2nd gun so he dont get shot, and tells the officers he has another one on him, or complys, and hopes the 2nd wont get found until he has time to try to ditch it and when hes caught with it denies its his lol. Either way what was this dumb ass kid doing with those guns anyway? Welcome to my world.
