JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office on Tuesday released body-worn camera footage from an evening last month when officers said a man fired a shot that grazed an officer’s face and police returned fire, killing the man.

"police were investigating a residential burglary on West 2nd Street in which a smartwatch was stolen when officers found "Leon Burroughs, 39, asleep in a car on Hardee Street. Police said they arrived at that location by tracking the smartwatch’s GPS. Police said they found a gun on the roof the car...."

I guess the smartwatch didn't take.

Leon, he dead. He no longer dumb.

The perp shot at the cops, hitting one in the face. Perp is dead. He won’t do that again.

And thus Leon became a saint.

All hail Saint Leon.

You won’t see that kind of lionization here.

Grandma has other ideas.

“After seeing the video, she said, she believes that officers could have identified themselves more and that they could have used a family member like herself to talk Burroughs out of the car without anyone getting hurt.

She also pointed out that he was lying down. She said she cannot definitively tell from the video that Burroughs fired the shot at police.

She didn’t want to go into more details on camera Tuesday because she is talking to her lawyer.”
