"I think the count is more than 90 shots...according to our investigation right now, we're getting details that suggest 60 to 80 wounds."
What say ye, FReepers? 60-80 hits from 90 shots at a moving target? Is that estimate high?

How many cops?
You can pop off 2 shots/second. So, if you’re firing for 4 seconds, that’s 8 shots per officer.

Good thing they had enough ammo with them.
I would find it tough to determine when the threat subsided sufficiently during real time action.
They need to put out a millisecond by millisecond time line.

Idiot certainly seemed to get what was coming to him.
In terms of police accuracy, it usually sucks ass. People seem to expect David Soul from Magnum Force-level accuracy. Most donut-munchers couldn't hit the side of a barn.

That’s good shootin. On the run, moving target. DAMN!
To: BenLurkin
for cops, probably too high
ccw’s geneally have more range time and are better shots because they have to be, ccw’s just cant spray and pray

Show the evidence. I have no trust in stories about shootings and cops these days.

More like 6-8 hits from 90 shots. LEOs normally suck with stationary targets. Moving target would be damn near impossible for Dunkin Donuts to hit on a good day. Now if LEO has a fully auto M-4 that’s a whole different problem every citizen should be worried about.

When asked why they shot him 90 times.,police responded thats all the ammo we had,,,,
To: BenLurkin
Why would you run from the police at a traffic stop if you have nothing to hide? When are they going to learn that it’s unlikely you’re going to outrun a bullet.

Could have been more if they had more spare magazines.

So what? You've got to make sure they are no longer a threat. On Iwo Jima "dead" Japs would play possum and then "wake up" and kill a Marine. I'm not going to second guess the law enforcement on the scene. The perp needed killin'.

Another report said 12 hits out of 90 shots. If 90 shots were fired then the 60 to 80 hits figure is preposterous on its face. A moving figure at night. Cops on adrenalin. This 60 to 80 hits nonsense can only be believed by journalists and the folks it was meant to inflame.
