Sounds like poor decision making by the police.
They’re also going to charge him for the cost of the bullets...
Only in Noo Yawk City. Sickening. You are in as much danger from the police there as you are from the criminals. And of course, the right to keep and bear arms is maximally infringed.
The cops should be charged with assault. Typical overapplication of force by idiot cops.
Not much different than charging the get away driver for the injury or deaths of others during a bank robbery.
Still, one would wish that the police officers would spend more time on the range.
Cop’s revenge. They are pissed the guy didn’t submit by dying.
“Unarmed Man” ....maybe he was doing his rendition of Venus de Milo?

What the hell?!!
Uh, it’s the responsibility of the poorly-trained police because they don’t know how to shoot.
The cops should spend more time at the range instead of marching in “pride” parades.
D*mn these uLEO’s sometimes act like a brotherhood. Thems against us.
guy was mistaken for a dog?
If rats are kept confined in areas consisting of only small high boxes, they become insane [University study 1990`s]
So tasers are now "back-up" weapons?
Is Obama the police commissioner of NYC? He is masterful at always saying it is someone else’s fault.
Follow through with logic they are deploying: If you open the door of a bank for a guy who then robs it, then you will be charged with robbing the bank, not the robber.
typical government agency...must be nice never having to be responsible for anything
I’m sure they must have tazed the man with no effect first, right? Then the pepper spray didn’t work on him either? Then he must have assaulted half of the NYPD when they tried to subdue his resistance to arrest. It’s no wonder they had to charge him for creating the situation where innocent bystanders were struck by the frantic spray of bullets that were necessary to stop this deranged lunatic from knocking down buildings and eating all the tourists.
What a joke.
unarmed.. and they couldn’t take him down?
Give NY back to the Indians.
spare us the Free Fire Zone.
Welcome to the Big Apple!
Fughetaboutit!!
Sounds like an attempt by NYPD to preempt lawsuits by the bystanders.
