Koval told reporters that the shooting occurred after an officer responded to reports of a man jumping into traffic, according to WKOW.

"Before we arrived, the call was updated by another complainant who indicated that this same subject was responsible for a battery," Koval said.

The officer in question entered an apartment where Robinson was thought to be hiding. "This same subject then assaulted my officer and in the context of mutual combat, the officer did draw his revolver and subsequently shot the subject," Koval said.

Unfortunately facts don't matter in these cases these days. Police are automatically guilty in the eyes of many in these neighborhoods.

Just a few months ago Police in Ann Arbor shot and killed a woman on drugs, off her meds and charging them with a knife. They hit her with a taser and she still kept coming so a single shot to the chest killed her. She had already stabbed her boyfiend which was why police were there in the first place.

Naturally there were the usual screams of police brutality and racism. To make matters worse the boyfriend who had been stabbed was right there with the protesters.
