Police seeking Dorner opened fire in a second case of mistaken identity
Torrance police say the man was driving a pickup resembling the fugitive's. The incident happened just after the LAPD fired on women delivering newspapers nearby.
This one was a shorter skinny (by about 100 lbs) white guy mistaken for the 6 foot 270 pound black guy.
What a bunch of Keystone Cops. Fortunately after ramming his truck, the Gang that Can't Shoot Straight missed him. And to make matters even more commical, they were responding to calls of "shots fired", from the other police shooting at the newspaper delivery ladies. They were all police shots of course.
He was also driving a BLACK HONDA pickup.
The ladies were in a BLUE Toyota Tacoma.
Dorner was driving a GREY NISSAN TITAN.
THese “professional law(less)men” can’t tell the difference in MAKE OR COLOUR!
Yeah, only they and the army should carry firearms...
El Gato~:” There was a second “mistaken identity case”.
In the first case (shots fired at Newspaper ladies) there is abosolutely “no legal defense”.
I counted 38 hits on their truck from newspaper photos.
Deadly physical force (discharge of firearm) can be
used only in RESPONSE to deadly physical force.
What prompted police to fire at them ?
Different make, model, and color of truck of the suspect’s truck
Did the victims display firearms ~ no !
They were shot from BEHIND the truck , through the truck box and back window, into the truck cab (!)
Police admit there was No warning issued (!)
The only discharge of firearms were the police, which prompted other to fire also (herd mentality) (!)
One victim shot in the back ; the other victim had shattered glass shards injury.
This shooting is a legal nightmare for the police.
In the second case , the male victim was no way , even remotely , come close to the physical description of the perp.
Adrenaline pumping, or not , is no excuse for a ‘trained police officer’ ramming the victims truck.
All the police officers involved need to go through re-training for deadly physical force,
the use of physical force , but also ,
they need more time on the target practice range (!)
Thank goodness that I am not inside their jurisdiction .
There must be a spif for a cop to shoot his gun. So, if not dogs around shoot at a car that looks like a car-—— that looks like a car a cop killer is driving. Then find another excuse to go Dirty Harry.
