And right on cue, we have the usual bedwetters claiming he should have just shot her in the arm, the police are lying, he should have known it was an air gun and that cops are not supposed to shoot unless they are being fired upon.
Police shootings in Kokomo are extremely rare, and this is quite possibly the first time this officer has ever fired his gun at a suspect.
Sad situation for the cop, who is no doubt regretting having been put in that situation.

Was the perp wearing a bikini? Did she just come from a pool party in TX? !

You seem confused, as I’ve never seen anyone here claim a suspect being shot to death while holding a gun on some low wage clerk was a bad shoot.
Never.
If yea see someone doing this, ping me.

If the cop had a body camera, it will just be icing on the cake to the store video.
Well, one fewer “gimmee dat!” in the world.

The officer was not identified. While I’m not against that in principle, especially right after the incident, when I see that in the press, I have to assume the officer was not a white male. My guess is a female, race irrelevant as to influencing the decision to withhold identity.

And right on cue, we have the usual bedwetters claiming he should have just shot her in the arm, the police are lying, he should have known it was an air gun and that cops are not supposed to shoot unless they are being fired upon. The only one who's "right on cue" is you with this hysterical cop defense post. No one is calling this a bad shoot, at least on FR. If you've got other references, name them. But save your pre-emptive attack on people who want to know the details. If the shoot was good, Freepers support it. This isn't DU.

True. He at least has a store clerk still alive because of him—and likely eternally grateful for his rescue.

Lots of meth heads in and around Kokomo. 50/50 the suspect could be of any race. I’m thinking a stupid white meth head from a decent family who stole her brother’s B.B. gun to rob the place. She was in too deep and out of her league.

It’s heading in the direction that the perps will shoot first because of the hesitation of the cops.

I know a couple of Kokomo policemen, & I hadn’t heard the name of the officer involved. Not one I know but feel sad for what lies ahead for him.

Women involved in violence makes my heart hurt. Not the way it is supposed to be. Happens way too much & they are getting younger & younger.
