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.

Body cameras are great so long as you turn them on. Any explanation why these were not turned on. And reading that this cop in the passenger seat shot across his partner is stunning. Not a single agency or military body would ever approve of that. Never. I guess getting this immigrant was more important for diversity appearance than actual law enforcement.
Yeah I’m up to the gills with “Amish” too. That might have been cute a couple of years ago but it has just become an annoying mosquito written by someone with nothing to say. Stop it!
Or anyone else's.
Every time Shrub opened his big yap to pander to and canonize Satanists as “peace lovers”, he deserved a hard right hook across the mouth.
Where did you hear she was armed?
She most likely fit right in.
“A woman named Hannah, who came to the scene with Zach Damond and is a close family friend, said Justine was a “spiritual healer.” Hannah, 21, did not want her last name used for safety reasons.
BINGO!
Patting themselves on the back for hiring a snake in the grass. Noor could not have been assimilated into American culture
You are absolutely correct. And one more poor soul has to learn this lesson the hard way.
Yep.
Read my mind.
Funny how FR's coterie of holster sniffers are laying low and not coming to the defense of this honorable LEO, now that the news is out that they've let jihadi goathumpers into the thin blue line..
Women in particular seem to think calling the police is a thing that will make them feel better about (fill in the blank). Then they can’t figure out why things end badly?
Minneapolis is the official sister city to Mogadishu. I kid you not. My kids went to college there. Stay away.
You almost have to be a whack job to live in Minneapolis. By the way, I’m drinking some 101 proof “spiritual healer” right now! Feeling healed already.

It doesn’t matter how loony the woman’s beliefs were, it was still murder.

She definitely wasn’t armed.

I think I’ll join you. Cheers!
Are you Aussie?
My heart grieves for her family and loved ones.However, she found out the real hard way that the problem is not the 2nd amendment but the bloody GOVERNMENT!

>> “ the problem is not the 2nd amendment but the bloody GOVERNMENT!” <<
And has been so for at least 25 years.
