I’ll play detective. The cop was alseep. The marine pulled into the lot to take a whiz, hit the gate, got out, went into field to relieve himself. Cop hears crash and wakes up. He drives over to investigate, sees a black man coming out of the field and returning to his car. He tells him to stop. Maybe the marine doesn’t know he’s a cop or just doesn’t doesn’t listen, gets in the car to drive away and groggy cop shoots him. I’m betting the marine was dead before the cop claimed he was stopping him for hit and run and child endangerment.
I do not disagree. Just the statement he fired into the Yukon with no regard to the danger he placed the children in tells me this stinks to high heaven.
So was the gate usually open, and this time it wasn't?
He's not paying attention and drives into the gate?
I'm sure if the marine had made any threatening statements to the cops or toward his girls, we'd know about it.
