The officer probably “dissed” him in some way, you know, like looking at him, provoking a justified attack.
It was just a little whoopass.
From what the news said this morning, the cop was forced back into his car by the “unarmed” thug and that’s when the cop fired the first round. I don’t really care if the kid tried to run after that.
If a vicious dog attacks your child and leaves, no normal person is going to consider the incident done and over.
Trying to piece it together:
The officer told the kid and a friend who were walking in the street to get up on the sidewalk.
The kid pushed the cop back into his car and one shot went off in the car.
35 feet away the kid was shot multiple times.
