BRIDGETON, N.J. — Another police killing is stirring anger in another town, this time in New Jersey, where a tense traffic stop captured on video ended with a passenger shot to death as he stepped out of a car with his hands raised at shoulder height.

The newly released footage from a police dashboard camera shows Bridgeton officers Braheme Days and Roger Worley in a Dec. 30 stop that escalates quickly after Days warns his partner about seeing a gun in the glove compartment of the Jaguar...

Reid, 36, had spent about 13 years in prison for shooting at New Jersey State Police troopers when he was a teenager. He was also arrested last year on charges including drug possession and obstruction; Days was one of the arresting officers then.

Appears 6 rounds where shot at the suspect, both officers seemed to have fired, with the passenger side officer firing first.

True, but how many times was he told not to move?

The shooting occurred after the subject exited the vehicle.

I don’t recall hearing him being ordered out of the car

I did not hear that either, but it appears the passenger side officer was pulling on the door in an effort to get the subject out of the vehicle.

Dead subject had both hands raised up to his shoulders...His hands appeared empty. I heard 6 rounds.

Shoot at a cop once and it exponentially increases your chances of getting shot by a cop in subsequent encounters.

Such is life.

Facing parole issues with a gun, LOL...in N.J. you be facing issues being a HUMAN BEING with a gun. My CCW ad combo of ammo and Mag gets me 7 years hard times ‘up there’. A shrug of the shoulder by the police ‘down here’ long as you let them know up front. Moral...Being in NJ increase ur chances of being dead....

What do you think the dead man’s next move was going to be after getting out of the car on his own volition? The cop was holding the door shut (my common sense assumption since he never told the guy to get out)

Watch closely

The passenger side officer reached in and pulled the gun from the vehicle and seems he was in possession of the weapon when the suspect exited the vehicle.

very good Jack Webb, but the acts preceding the exit prompted the shoot

Although the passenger was not holding a weapon, he had access to one (in glove compartment).

So what? They shot the guy without a gun as a warning to the passenger?

Don't know, the passenger side officer took the gun out of the vehicle prior to the suspect exiting the vehicle. Watch the video closely.

I docked in Port Norris for a few years, before heading to Florida. Sometimes, I would head down “Buck Shootem Rd., and head thru Bridgeton.

There was a place that had “She Crab Soup, stopped there a few times.
