The friend said he was within arms reach of BOTH the cop and his friend when the cop started firing? Does that make sense? Cuz everyone says the kid was 30 feet away when he was shot.
It could be both. I had heard the kid was shot, nonfatally, when he started running then surrendered, than the cop took a fatal shot when the kid was thirty feet away.
But that is for forensics to determine.
I believe the cop fired the first shot from inside the vehicle, and then the kid started running away.
