Garth Brooks concert...was this a black teen and aspiring rapper?
Oh....wait....Garth Brooks concert. My bad.
**************
Not sure the concert had anything to do with the story other than the officer was in
his car going to the concert when he saw the altercation on the sidewalk. He got out of
his car and that’s when the shooting occurred.

“Independent witnesses state that the male was abusing the female and had thrown her
to the ground,” Walker said in the release.
The man was on top of the woman on the sidewalk, and the officer got out of his
car to intervene verbally, the officer told Tulsa police.
“He identifies himself and separates the two, and that’s when the confrontation
occurs (between the officer and the man),” Walker said at the scene.

Friend speaks about man shot by off-duty Veterans Affairs officer
Snip
But Jason Chandler, who worked in the same building as Rodney Walker, said he couldn't picture his friend either pointing a weapon at the officer or intending to harm the woman. Rodney Walker wore oversized pants and would constantly pull them up while the pair worked their respective service jobs in the Williams building downtown, which may have been misconstrued as reaching for his weapon, Chandler said.
D'oh ! Done in by the droopy drawers?
Plus a pic of the deceased.
