One person in the comment section asked why didn’t the officer choke him instead of letting him get away...

I read that and thought,"Sheesh, the cops can't win." Sorry, Shanequa, the options that the police have in subduing the perps get more limited daily. Choke out the perp and watch him die of cardiac disease and drugs and stress? Well, we've heard that song already.

Think I’ll cancel that dinner reservation I had at a downtown restaurant tonight.

The wife’s gonna be disappointed.

Why bother finishing your coffee when you can loot a restaurant with multiple pots full of it?

Just taking a nap.

Atlanta police units initially responded to a 911 call reporting a suspicious person at Wendy’s around 10:30 p.m. Friday. Officers found a man asleep in his car, parked in the drive-thru lane and blocking customers, according to GBI.

‘He was certainly resisting the police with all his might.’

perhaps; but the sight of two armed white cops shooting a fleeing and unarmed black guy in the back is not going to help things a bit...

Is that first 3 round burst from a Taser?

Looks like he took one of the cops TASER... the yellow thing in his hand when running... if so he wasn’t unarmed

*********

He is running away and the officer shot him.
He wasn’t running backwards.

You can’t tell from the video what happened when he was shot.
