Sad situation.
Brother blaming cops in his angry gofundme page. I get it.
But the cops had to take these guys out for public safety.
Maybe, but I'd like to hear more details. Whose gun was responsible for the civilian drivers death? And whose gun was responsible for the UPS drivers death? If it was the cops, then there is an argument that maybe taking out 'these guys' should have been handled differently?
This is so sad for the UPS guy’s family.
You will be hearing all the details. Family is clearly going after the cops

Odds on the police didn’t know that the UPS driver was even in the truck. From the video, you couldn’t see and that truck was riddled with bullets.
Yes, wow! Sounds like a “dreamer” with a chip on their shoulder and looking to cash in on this one
If the jewelry store didn’t have expensive products, none of this would have happened, let’s blame the Jewelry Store Owner instead ok?
The cops probably all emptied 3 or 4 magazines into the truck.
“But the cops had to take these guys out for public safety.”
You’re very accommodating. Good citizenship. The brother should take your lesson.
“Records show that both men have extensive felony criminal records, and that Alexander had just been released from prison on an armed robbery conviction.”
I’d like to see the family go after whoever let career criminals out to kill their relative. The police aren’t in charge of the revolving door.
Did the cops have to let the van get into heavy traffic? I don’t know how long the chase took, or if there was any way to get ahead of it.
I don’t know if the cops were taking cover behind a private vehicle moving next to the UPS van, or if that was an unmarked police car.
It’s too early to blame anyone but the robbers, but there are real questions here, about police procedures.
And the woman in the jewelry store. Whose bullet hit her, robber’s, or owner’s?
privileged, entitled sobs....animals....
Did you watch the video?
The cops were taking cover behind civilian vehicles. THAT HAD PEOPLE IN THEM! And shooting into another vehicle with a hostage inside, killing him and killing a motorist stranded in the line of fire. Over jewelry.
What a sh*t show.
That's your takeaway from this? Seriously?
To be fair, if it had been my husband I would probably being suing anyone and everyone involved to get answers.
But those cops could not let those perps go.
Surprised the Black Activists aren’t screaming that cops should have done more to arrest them peacefully.
Florida law enforcement.
Shoot first, figure it all out later.
I only saw a brief clip.
I don’t think police procedure requires them to be IN FRONT of the civilian vehicle with no cover as shots are being fired at them. I am sure we will find out.
Your attitude is beyond reprehensible.
Go be fair.
What part of my opinion is reprehensible.
If my husband was an innocent driver caught in a hostage situation, I would use the mighty power of my legal family members to get down to what happened.
But since it isn’t my family memember I can be a bit more objective.
There is NO WAY those cops could let those perps go.
It is now up to investigators to see what should and could have been done differently.
