Shot from passenger side.
Bet this goes down as accidental discharge.
Cops usually let loose once a round is fired. I’m surprised anyone in the car survived.
I agree. Either it is murder or an accident. I think murder would be hard to prove unless the officer knew the guy or was a member of al-Qaeda.
Accidental discharge is very likely what happened. The state of mind of these officers is what is suspect. In these cases they seem to get hyper over nothing. Paranoid might be a better word.
Action MUST be taken against these reckless cops who are too quick to shoot both dogs and humans. This guy needs to be FIRED at a minimum. If he “accidentally” shot the guy, this type of mistake can not be tolerated in our police forces. When we allow them to use lethal force when necessary, there has to be a no tolerance policy for accidentally killing someone. OOPS my gun went off, just doesn't cut it. The one excuser in the article said ““It’s tragic and unfortunate,” he said. “Things like this happen. It’s sad. It’s not supposed to happen.”
THINGS LIKE THIS HAPPEN? Oh, well. Move along. There HAS to be severe consequences to the officers who kill dogs and humans. Take away their job, take away their guns, so they can never make a shooting mistake resulting in death again.
The death bell can not be unrung! Taking away the ability and opportunity from these careless officers, reduces greatly the likelihood they will be able to do it ever again.
I cannot beieve the lack of great training and correction of these hothead cops all over the nation. Unbelievable.
