3 police cars and a helicopter.
Suspect casually (though hands up) wanders away from officer pointing a gun at him (presumably screaming “don’t move, get down”), and over to his vehicle window.
Unclear exactly what happened in the end, but suspect clearly acted to escalate tensions to the point of a furtive movement validating a shooting. May have been a bad shoot, arguably explained by the taser shot triggering the gunshot (if multiple cops are pointing guns at a suspect, and one shoots, understandable if the others shoot too).
Based on this little, looks like another argument against “non-lethal” weapons. Initiating “non-lethal” force in the presence of hair-trigger lethal force (chambered, sights on target, finger on trigger) may prompt the latter.
“Initiating non-lethal force in the presence of hair-trigger lethal force (chambered, sights on target, finger on trigger) may prompt the latter.”
I was thinking along those lines too. “Hair-trigger” tense situation, she may not have intended to pull he trigger. If indeed her’s was the only shot fired, seems like such may be the case.
