The Milwaukee police officer who fatally shot an armed suspect Saturday is black, Chief Edward Flynn confirmed Sunday.
"We are concerned for his safety, he has been staying with relatives out of town."
Flynn said that based on his review of the body camera video, the chain of events leading to the shooting of 23-year-old Sylville Smith took 20 to 25 seconds.
"I mean, there was virtually no time between the officer unhooking his seat belt, turning on his body camera, getting out of the car and immediately he was in a foot chase. That foot chase went maybe a few dozen feet before he encountered this individual in a fenced yard," Flynn said.
"The individual was armed. The individual did turn toward the officer with the firearm in his hand. You can't tell when the officer discharges his firearm."

Then let’s riot and hunt down white people.
and how do you call back the animals who went wild?
No. They stole what they wanted 1st.
The reason Obama wants the Fed to Control the Police is so he can put insane Rules Of Engagement on them
People need to start protecting themselves from these animals. I’m down for pre-emptied strikes
It was reported that the business was burned down because they were not nice to black people . . . just looking for an excuse to do it, the shooting provided it.
No, they burned down the hood for a criminal. A criminal who had been arrested several times, but never taken to trial. I am surprised the media has reported the gun as being stolen. I would think that doesn’t go along with their desired narrative.
No,this cop is surely an "Oreo".
They use whatever excuse they can make for theft, riots, and burning.....
“Hey, bro!!! It’s damn hot today!!! Let’s burn something!!!!”
Like Irish? “O’Reo” sounds rather Irish... Black Irish?
Heck no! They burned it down for the 0bama Legacy.
This is the stuff that will endure.
You mean they've been beating on whitey for nothing?
Whoops....
Obama may not have started ISIS, but he sure has hell started BLM
Yup, their words, not ours.
.
“It is the institution that is racist” Will be quoted.
This is whitey’s fault somehow.
I wish we could return to the old days when looters and fire starters would be shot on site when caught in the act.
Sylville Smith was a piece of work, coddled by the “justice” system and let skip on witness intimidation charges. Only in a Democrat-run system do the bad guys get put back on the street to hunt again.
