Oregon occupiers: What officials say happened at traffic stop
http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/27/us/oregon-siege-traffic-stop/index.html
“The FBI and state police teams knew the route they were going to take. They picked a spot away from populated areas to attempt a traffic stop. One vehicle stopped on command from authorities. The second, allegedly driven by LaVoy Finicum, took off at high speed, attempting to get away.
about a mile away, out of sight, the FBI and state police had set up a roadblock.
But Finicum, with police in hot pursuit, attempted to leave the main road and drove into a snow bank. When he emerged from the vehicle, FBI and state police ordered him to surrender. That’s when, authorities say, Finicum reached down toward his waistband where he had a gun.
The SWAT team opened fire. Finicum was killed. Ryan Bundy suffered a light wound on his arm.
The shooting was captured on camera by the SWAT team. FBI and Oregon police officials are discussing possibly releasing the video, in part to counter claims by supporters that Finicum was gunned down while trying to surrender.”
The explanations of the so-called authorities keep evolving, just like Hillary's.
If so, they would be wise to release the video immediately. If not, it looks like cover-up.
There was a case of a white cop shooting and killing an unarmed black 19 year old in Baltimore recently.
Within a day of the incident, the police released surveillance camera footage clearly showing the punk rushing the cop, cop, with gun aimed at kid backs up but keeps gun in place. Punk kid reaches behind his back to his waistband as if reaching for a gun. 3 to the chest stops the situation. It was clear to all the cop did his job well and the issue dropped quickly.
Odd. The young woman who was in Finicum's truck, and was a direct eyewitness, says he raised his hands. So does Ammon Bundy.
” Now if the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms comes to disarm you and they are bearing arms, resist them with arms. Go for a head shot; they’re going to be wearing bulletproof vests.” … “They’ve got a big target on there, ATF. Don’t shoot at that, because they’ve got a vest on underneath that. Head shots, head shots.... Kill the sons of bitches.”
