Video of Motorcycle Hijacker being shot by Brazilian Police Officer
Gun Watch ^ | 24 January, 2017 | Dean Weingarten

Posted on 01/27/2017 8:31:10 AM PST by marktwain








A quick search shows that it happened in October of 2013. The shooting is done by the police officer in the grey shirt. The helmet video clearly shows the officer shooting the hijacker. Note that the revolver used by the motorcycle jacker had been placed back in his pocket.  The person with the helmet video is out of the line of fire by a few feet.

The officer appears to be about 15 feet from the jacker when he shoots.

The revolver used by the jacker is likely a Taurus or Rossi .38 caliber.

This is so old it should make your teeth hurt. Because somebody recounts it doesn’t make it new.

There was no claim that it was new.

It explicitly says it occurred in 2013.

The officer appears to be about 15 feet from the jacker when he shoots.

It appeared the cop was at least 50 feet away, or more. Also, if he missed right by so much as a fraction, he would have hit the robbery victim. Overall, the cop is very practiced to hit the perp twice at that distance, in the heat of the moment.

Remember, the officer doing the shooting is wearing the gray shirt.

The view is from the helmet camera, worn by the hijack victim.

You see the officer approach the Hijacker after he shoots, and retrieving the revolver.

It took me a few views to figure it out. The change in perspective is confusing, as is the interplay of cartoon with real video.

I dunno.
The computer animated cartoon of the police officer feeling up the woman in the car was a bit more graphic than the shooting.
Thanks for the post.

;-)

Graphic? Bah. The Brazilian video with the two thugs in Motorcycle helmets holding up a shop getting their justice is graphic. Just a hale of bullets pouring through paned glass from Cops that you never see.
