"Reckless driving is generally not a felony..."
Reckless driving through a government building is though. Destruction of goverment property.
And have you tried to shoot the tires of a moving vehicle? I'm willing to bet the cop tried to shoot the tires. We don't know the distance involved, what kind of car was driven, where the kid was hit (a shot in his stomach in a low riding sports car would be easy to make by accident while aiming for a moving tire)
There is more to the story than we know though.
Absolutely.
There is no way for us to know exactly what transpired and how. It could be that the kid was driving toward the officer or a group of kids and the only recourse was for the cop to shoot at the car, hitting the driver. He may have actually saved lives.
That being said, I'm glad he wasn't around when I used to burn donuts around my old high school.
I'm shocked he hit, and killed, the driver.
