“So those eleven the chief is referring to were NOT the first ones on the scene.”
There were 3 cops in the video.
2 were professional the other one has resigned.
Total of 11 cops at the scene and there weren’t any complaints about the others.
The reports I saw/heard were that three cops were ALONE in the beginning. The “eleven” were after backups were called.
Of the other cops, be it two or eleven, how many were approached from their rear quarter (the side their gun was holstered on) by two young males making threatening moves? Including an indication of intent to pull a weapon?
There was a graphic put up yesterday in one of the other threads showing a 5 or 6 frame (from the video) breakdown of what led to the officer drawing his weapon. Now the takedown of the bikini girl may have been excessive and unnecessary, but drawing his weapon in the face of clearly threatening moves by those two guy’s was not.
