The first story said his hands were cuffed behind him so I was curious. I live near Pittsburgh, PA and every police shooting is the same way. One officer I met approached a stolen car with 3 criminals passed out at a light. He woke them and the driver took off with the officers hand slammed in the rear door. He jumped on the trunk to find a stolen .45 pointed at him. He pulled his gun and shot all 3, killing 2 and wounding the driver. He fell off the trunk and was dragged for over a mile at up to 80 mph before the flesh was stripped from his hand and he came loose. A coroners jury, 3 black and 3 white voted 5-1 to try him for homocide. Fortunately our coroner Cyril Wecht quashed that in the face of the threats of riots by none other than the naacp and local gangs.

That would certainly start the adrenaline flowing right there.
