Zango was shot Thursday during a struggle with a plainclothes officer after being chased down a hallway at a Chelsea storage facility, where police were raiding a bootleg CD and DVD operation. Police admit the African immigrant, who worked in the building, had nothing to do with the counterfeiting, but say he tried to grab the officer’s gun.

**News Flash**

If you break the law, run from a cop, struggle with him, and then try to take his gun...you may get shot!

Sharpton's comments don't even deserve a reply.

The incident started when the cop chased Zongo, who got out of the elevator on the floor where the action was taking place. There is no indication of why the cop did this.

I believe it was all a mistake, and that Zongo, an illiterate African, thought the cop was some kind of robber or lunatic who was after him. The cop was not in uniform, and it was dark.
