KILLEEN, Texas (KWTX) - Texas Rangers are investigating after a Killeen officer shot and killed a man Sunday evening whom police described as “emotionally distressed.”
The officer responded to what police said was a psychiatric call at around 5:30 p.m. Sunday in the 1600 block of Carrollton Avenue in Killeen.
“Upon the officer’s arrival, he encountered an emotionally distressed man,” police spokeswoman Ofelia Miramontez said.
“The officer initially used his conducted energy weapon, which was ineffective, and then discharged his duty weapon during the encounter, striking the subject,” Miramontez said.
Projected energy weapon.
I’ve been married to one for many, many years, ahat.
Bruh... doncha know a black man’s life is worth 10x of a white man’s?
LOL.
Professional athletes should stick to their sport.
There sure are a lot of unarmed black’s in this country. War wounds?
That makes your knee jerkiness against the cop even worse! 😖
A taser powerful enough to take down a 250 pound man on PCP, will kill a woman r smaller man. And, no, it's not feasible to expect a cop to have to twiddle with a volume knob while being attacked.
High-power taser was removed from the market after they caused several cardiac arrests

White lives don’t matter.
***conducted energy weapon,***
Is that a new name for a tazer? Names and nomenclature changes every few decades for some common items.
"twiddle with a volume knob while being attacked"
