An Australian woman engaged to marry an American next month was shot and killed by a Minneapolis cop Saturday night after calling police to report an incident, leading her family and investigators to question what caused the deadly shooting.
The woman, identified as Justine Damond, 40, was killed in the late-night shooting in the city's Fulton neighborhood, Fox 9 reported. She reportedly had called to report an assault.
Two Minneapolis police officers responded to a 911 call of a possible assault just north of the 5100 block of Washburn Avenue S. just before 11:30 p.m. Saturday, the state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension said in a news release. At one point, an officer fired their weapon, fatally striking a woman."
Police were trying to determine whether any video of the incident exists. The body cameras of the officers involved were not activated, according to police.

Or are the people issuing news releases grammatically impaired?

The fifth-column leftist media will bury the story until they can spin another “more gun control needed” mantra out of it.
To: shelterguy
I want to know the history of this cop, NOT running the body cam ?
Did they give them, minorities, a pass on not having to run body cams?
To: dblshot
An officer fired their weapon? Am I to surmise that more than one officer showed up ...
I noticed that too. I believe it's another example of 21st Century "journalism" where the reporter doesn't want to be gender specific, as in "his" weapon, or "her" weapon.
More PC BS.

“The body cameras of the officers involved were not activated”
Maybe they only activate them when they get out of the car?

I thought of that too. “An officer fired” is all they needed to say. I can assume the weapon part.

From what some have said, the body cams are only on when the cops are out of the car.
In this case apparently, they were still in the car.
