Watch: Hatchet Man Charges Cop from Feet Away
Western Journal ^ | June 16, 2022 | Jack Gist

Posted on 06/16/2022 5:48:25 PM PDT by lowbridge

A police officer in Naperville, Illinois, pulled over a driver for a minor traffic violation when another vehicle pulled up beside him traveling in the opposite direction, according to WSPY News.  A man then got out of that stopped car and charged at the officer with a hatchet.

The officer had been on the scene for over 11 minutes, according to the Naperville Police Department. There’s no way he could have been expecting a man to attack him for no apparent reason.

The officer, a 22-year veteran of the NPD, promptly shot and killed the assailant. The deceased man was identified as 28-year-old Edward C. Samaan, of Naperville.

The officer’s body camera captured the frantic seconds when he opened fire. The NPD released the body and squad car camera footage of the officer-involved shooting earlier this month.

Cops sure can release body worn video in a hurry when it benefits them.

Yep, he sure did.

I read yesterday that he had been charged with attacking a cop back in January.

I wonder why he was back out on the street.

Why are all the images of this hatchet man show his face blurred out? Why do I have to sign in to You Tube to watch the video?

You could see the lunatic was anxious to get out of the car before he even parked it. He had the full intension of killing that cop, right then and there. Wonder if the victim had an “axe” to grind with the cop during a previous encounter?

Officer was either expecting trouble, or has been practicing his fast draw. That was quick. (fortunately).
