The news brief said he was carrying a collapsible stock ak47 and a little Italian sidearm starts with a B

AK was in violation

Do you have a link it was a Draco style

Not that it matters

Bad kill in my view big time

Thug or not

I found some images of the AK as well as a video showing him putting it into his back seat. It doesn’t have a hinge for a collapsible stock or underfolder and appears to be the shorter barrel of the pistol.

This article also confirms it was a Draco.

Finally, if you go through the slideshow here it shows the Draco entered as evidence.

However, in reading some of the details it appears the officer killed Smith with his Beretta (normal service pistol), not the AK. He had the AK out in the encounter that began the chase, but he didn’t fire it for fear of having shots go wild. He did fire his Beretta at the fleeing car 7 times (to start the chase).
