Rankin shot Chapman in the head and chest outside a Walmart superstore on the morning of 22 April. The pair had engaged in a physical struggle after Rankin tried to arrest the 18-year-old on suspicion of shoplifting, according to police. Witnesses said Chapman broke free and then stepped back towards the officer aggressively before being shot twice. The 18-year-old was the second unarmed man shot dead by Rankin in Portsmouth. An autopsy indicated Chapman was not shot at close range.

I take everything said by the MSM with a giant grain of salt, but...
This guy ends up at the morgue in handcuffs, shot in the face, and the chest?
Something doesn’t add up.
Plus the last guy he shot 11 times because he wouldn’t take his hands out of his pants (no weapon?).
Sounds like this cop may be a little trigger happy.

I’ll withhold judgement on this one until I see some more evidence.
