DC cops still have service revolvers? Probably comes from liberal reporters book of misinformation
Or the cop was carrying a little 5 shot S&W Chiefs special as an off duty/backup piece

Investigators found the suspect's gun at the scene and determined it to be a realistic-looking, all black toy gun that resembled a revolver.A variation of the rocks-paper-scissors game: "My REAL revolver beats your TOY revolver." The wannabe probably forgot to blacken the orange tip with a black marker like many do nowadays.

I suspect once this story is circulated amongst the peoples of Baltimore, that unnamed POlice officer is going to be in deep doodoo.
After all, Edel Cato Moreland only had a toy gun.
Killing a poor unarmed black (probably) man who in reality was only trying to get money for Christmas presents for his kids and baby mama(s) is not acceptable in 2015 Baltimore. I suspect that Baltimore state attorney Marilyn Mosby is going to be all over this like ugly on an ape.

Investigators found the suspect's gun at the scene and determined it to be a realistic-looking, all black toy gun that resembled a revolver. So technically the perp was unarmed?

Maryland’s gun controls are so tight that the cops can no longer use real guns for throw downs? “a realistic-looking, all black toy gun”

Wait! The real story can only be told if we know tge race, ethnicity and gender preference of the officer and the perp.
Black officer, white perp, no problem. White officer and perp of non white color or transitioning between genders, now we have issues that require a “conversation” and a deeper understanding of racial and gender politics in a eurocentric white patriarchal society defined by hate, pure unadulterated hate i tell ya!

1:30AM in a neighborhood slightly higher than national average for crime. 3 burglaries, 2 thefts, and one assault in the last month in the general area. If the cop was troll fishing, he caught one. Good on him.

Moreland fled a short distance before collapsing in the street. Needed a bigger/better round, and he should not have stopped firing. If the perp could run away, he could have just as easily returned fire if that had been a real firearm. LEO is lucky to be alive. I'd have kept firing center mass until he was on the ground. I usually carry a 9mm or 45 ACP - both loaded with Federal JHP.

Which permutation of the all important matrix?
Black perp - White officer
Black perp - Black officer
White perp - White officer
White perp - Black officer
Expect Sharpton within 24 hours if the first, 48 hours if the second....cickets chirping for the others.
