That POS had a lot more than a beating coming, and if they’d beat him to death, I’d have just applauded. Some street justice now and then might prevent some of the thuggish behavior that’s just common as dirt nowadays. You act like they were beating up some innocent guy who was taking a nap, instead of providing some honest pay-back.
An officer ran over and tried to remove the suspect from the car before he could offer resistance. He had the guy about halfway out of the car when the robber recovered himself and tried to fight back. He slammed into the officer, smashing him back against the car, and the officer reflexively pulled the trigger.
The bullet tore the officer's thumb off before striking the suspect in the head and killing him. You should have seen the letters to the editor of the local paper, asking why the cop had to shoot the poor, innocent suspect in cold blood.
When the police chief released the dash cam footage of the pursuit and struggle to the television stations, those complaints dried up instantly.
But that was clearly not the case jim.
