The Minnesota cop who shot and killed an Australian bride-to-be opened fire on her after being startled by a ‘loud sound’ near his patrol car, investigators say.

Officer Mohamed Noor, 31, began blasting at 40-year-old Justine Damond, of Minneapolis, just moments after he and his partner, Matthew Harrity, heard the noise in the alley behind her house, according to the state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.

Except when it's a cop shooting a civilian.

Then, not even an excuse is needed.

SHE’S STANDING RIGHT BY THE CAR. HE CAN SEE HER. WTF DIFFERENCE DOES SOUND MAKE. WAS THERE A GUN IN HER HAND. WHY SHOOT AT HER. THIS IS A CROCK OF BS. THE MAYOR WILL SAY, WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND HIS CULTURAL BACKGROUND. APPARENTLY WHEN SOMALIS HEAR GUNSHOTS THEY SHOOT THE PERSON THEY ARE TALKING TO. AND WE NEED TO HIRE MORE SOMAIS UNTIL THEY TAKE OVER THE PD.

This is Minnesota, where they have a Comedian posing as a US Senator. Making Minnesota is full of jokes, such as this police officer.

Someone linked to it on another thread. You could Google it.

Minneapolis rules of engagement appear to be much looser than those our troops are subjected to against terrorists.

I will never travel through or vacation again in Minnesota. I will also never buy any product produced in Minnesota. This joke of a cop is lying and should be hung today.

Excuse me sir, but your BS meter was pegged so hard I’m afraid it will have to be replaced.

Unlike typical meters, BS meters do not wear out. They only get better with use.

In the end, it will be a whitewash. He will get a promotion and she will be buried. And he can be on the lookout for scalp number two.

In the end, hopefully, the taxpayers of that miserable jurisdiction will be relieved of a seven or eight figure sum.

BLM twitter has been very supportive of this cop.

A “loud sound” might make someone twitch if he was stupid enough to be sitting with his finger on the trigger. A “loud sound” is not going to get someone to reflexively draw from a retention holster and fire across his partner.

Q: There’s a pic of the officer at Geller’s link that shows the officer wearing white gloves. Are the white gloves part of a dress uniform? If not, why was Noor wearing the white gloves?

Again, from Australia. Sounds like the PM is PO'ed...

Tributes flow for Justine Ruszczyk as police officer who fired fatal shot remains tight-lipped

The police car’s dash cam was operating (although there are reports it wasn’t), but wouldn’t have shown the shooting. It did have audio however, and there was some immediate calls for the audio to be released.

The audio from *after* the shooting has already been released. Criminal cover-up unless all dash cam audio released. Perhaps the victim was still on phone with 911. Looks worse all the time.
