Sergeant Jay Cook of the New York State Police was on patrol alone when he spotted "a suspicious man walking down a roadway" at about 3:20 p.m. local time.

Cook called out to the individual, and when he turned the officer recognized him as Sweat, police said.

The fugitive took off running and the officer shot him twice in the torso, police said. Sweat was taken into custody and transported to a local hospital for treatment.

That’s pretty fancy shootin’ to drop an unarmed man running away from you with shots “to the torso”. That North Charleston cop who just shot the unarmed black man running away from him “in the back” should have been trained in that torso shootin’.
