Cops in Illinois fatally shot a man who stole a car at a gas station and tried to drive away — slamming the vehicle into reverse and dragging officers with him, police bodycam video shows.
The footage, released Wednesday, shows DeShawn Tatum, 25, first running through an alley in Rock Island before stealing a bystander’s car at a Chicken Shack gas station and dragging two officers as he crashes into a building on April 1.

5 kids. Good grief. 5 more likely to be taken care of by the state in one form or another.

“DeShawn-—His family must hail from the town of Shawn.”
More likely to have been named after the French white wine mustard, Dijon that mama likes.

It has been stated elsewhere, that this is the cousin of the Stanford student senator, Gabrielle Crooks, who said that ‘White people need to be eradicated.’
Nothing like a little bit of relatives being shot by the police (he had a gun, and tried to back up a car with a policeman caught behind the open driver's door...) to instill a sense of racial harmony.

He was trying to decide whether to pursue a career as a brain scientist or as a rocket surgeon.

I did not see anything distressing about that vid. Why did they post the warning?

Get the cops to the damm range. Numerous clear angles, this was a one head shot situation.Practice, practice, practice. The guy apparently had a gun and was trying to run them over. I suppose you want the cops to run up and take his pulse after every shot before deciding whether to shoot again?
