I would think that after the bean bags and taser failed (and not knowing why they did not all charge him at once, clubs swing) why did they not try to place one shot in the leg? ok, it dont bring him down, then try one more at the leg. You would always have the option to fire more, if the man with two shot legs still tries to run for it.

Oh, jeez...

well, if you had a mentally ill family member would you think a slow escalation be best??
don't know all the details here but I see time and time again , mostly in liberal states, that SOME cops really like to shot. what about that guy in NYC that was producing his ID for the cops, and 4 cops shot him like a dozen bullets in him, and about a dozen more missed, he was standing in a building doorway. mistaken identity, opps!!!

i am just bring up the possibility that maybe less drastic action could have been taken, Multiple shots fire at a guy that does not have a weapon that can project much farther than his arm causes me to suspect something ain't right? Did they shoot him while he was falling on the ground?

this is too early, not enough details to decide if this was justified or not.

life was taken, I want to know if there was something else that could have been done. Life liberty etc... Could something been done to save that life? maybe, lets find out more. maybe it was justified, lets find out?
