I don’t understand what happened. He doesn’t appear to be struggling with the officers or any sort of threat to them, however without sound and from the less that clear images it’s difficult to tell. I predict this is not going to go well for the police.

The leading theory in the Bay Area news reports is that the cop thought he was grabbing for his taser but somehow came up with his pistol. This is reinforced by the surprised reaction of the cop who did the shooting (if the link above is to the complete video. I can’t see youtube from here.)

Not well at all. The direct video looked pretty much like the cops put him on the ground then executed him.

The police will be fine, excepting for one with an itchy trigger finger, it is the Taxpayers who are going to get shafted.
