The lawyer for the St. Louis-area cop who shot dead Antonio Martin on Tuesday night has suggested his client may have been set up and ambushed by Antonio Martin, who police say pulled a loaded 9mm pistol on the officer without warning.
The Berkeley, Missouri, officer was responding to a 911 call about a possible theft from a Mobil gas station about 11.15pm on Tuesday.
Brian Millikan, the lawyer for the unnamed 34-year-old Berkeley officer, told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that the cop may have been walking into a deadly trap set by Martin and his friend.
'Their behavior is certainly bizarre, and it wouldn't surprise me at all, in the environment we are in, that's for sure,' Mr Millikan told the newspaper.
The shooting happened just three miles from where unarmed teen Michael Brown was shot dead by white officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson in August. Berkeley, like Ferguson, is a predominately black St. Louis suburb.

I believe it.
A friend let me shoot his. Frankly I was pleasantly surprised. It’s no Les Baer, but Les Baer wouldn’t spit on you for what they cost.
A Hyundai Accent isn’t a Mercedes S500, but both will take you from Point A to Point B safely and in comfort.
Someone ping me when they are rioting again. Something tells me it will be soon.
Looks like Anthony Shahid (wearing his phony cop hat) in the crowd in one of those photos.
Ah, the FP-45 Liberator - you were reading my mind! That was the ultimate piece of junk, designed to kill a German soldier at close range so its user could take the dead Bosch’s rifle as an upgrade. None of its victims ever knew they were killed with a cheap zip gun; they were just dead.
Grandma is a liar claiming her grandson was "getting up" and then getting shot at as trying to flee. That whole "community" is filled with liars and thugs.
Arranged by Holder’s people! Has no media got the balls to just come out and say Holder did this, his dirty fingerprints are ALL over this. They wanted an escalation and to get the NYPD shooting out of the news, even while DeBlasio was pissing on their ashes!
It is time to fight back! If you’re a cop reading this, your president and DOJ have taken a hit out on you, in a situation where you think a thug is about to cap you, shoot first ask questions later
I thought the other guy was starting to make a mugging pass on the wheelchair (or baby buggy?) duo when he and his pal spotted the cop and broke it off. Either impression would fit the video, I guess.
Unfortunately true.
Another hood rat gets his wings.
turning his life around = DRINK!
That vaguely seems like it’s the very start of an organized insurgency.
What is more, it’s possible the leadership is FRIENDS with the freaking President.
Mull THAT one over...
Why would he does this? In order to generate the type of atmosphere in which police dept.s could be further federalized.
Good observations. But I think it goes even further. Hypothetically, if I were planning a Marxist revolution, I would try to hamstring and infiltrate the police and military beforehand.
simple answer is yes....not that the thugocracy adn ANSWER care about that
The president and many of his Rat friends realize that the only way to make the changes they want is if they are able to take complete control of society. When the Federal Government declares marshal law to get society back under control they will fundamentally change our society.
I am not sure local and state governments will fall for the trap or even honor the marshal law, that is when we will see if our representatives have any gonads.
No, it’s all good. I enjoy the fact that this meme has propagated.
