Officer Who Shot Knife-Wielding Migrant Placed Under Investigation

An Italian police officer has been placed under investigation after shooting a knife-wielding Ghanian migrant in the legs who was threatening passersby.

The police officer is being investigated for “negligent excess in the legitimate use of weapons” after shooting the 44-year-old Ghanian at Rome’s Termini train station on Friday.-snip- “The officer, with a salary of €1,500 (£1,280/$1,790) per month, will have to appoint his own defence, an expert and lawyer: they will cost thousands of euros that we at Coisp have offered to support, especially since the migrant, for his defence, will have free legal aid and, of course, at taxpayers’ expense,” Pianese said.

-snip- The 49-year-old, like the migrant in Rome, had been harassing locals when police approached him. The Ghanian became aggressive with officers, stating: “In Ghana, I would have slit your throat.”

“In Italy, justice sucks, and you can’t do anything to me,” he added.

He should have hit him 2x center mass, and 1x in the forehead.

This is why I don’t like movies like THE PURGE. Liberals are so busy flipping right and wrong, they might implement it in real life.

I’d like to the jerks who bring charges against police that stop this kind of attack by shooting the perp be forced to face a situation like this and face the attacker with only their glib mouth and a bouquet of flowers.

He should have shot the knife out of his hand. Shooting him in the leg was excessive force, obviously.
