Yep - that’s how I trained my wife...center mass and follow it down and keep squeezing until it clicks...put in fresh mag and then ask if the person can hear her...
Yes, he waited way too long and what was the woman cop doing even being there if she’s not willing and prepared to act in that situation.
Patrolling at night in a park? Bring the dog.
Article identifies the female as being a sergeant...the senior officer in charge. It's all on her.
“Female officer lucky she didn’t get shot by friendly fire.”
That was some serious lead whizzing around her.
ChiCongo. Figures.
“so there won’t be any question that the cops did the right thing.”
You don’t really think that matters, do you?
Bingo!!
She could have moved or pulled her own weapon.
Quick, what’s his name so a basketball player can put it on his jersey before the next game.

Women shouldn’t be cops.
the guy wi the body cam had a dog... you can see the shadow on the ground
he went after the girl as he viewed her as the weakest link
it was the third cop that punched his ticket, came into frame from the right
and the head shot made sparks when it hit
i can only guess why she is a Sargent
Using her TaSER (Tom Swift Electric Rifle)
The range on those, cop issue, models is just over 15 feet.
You saw how well it worked. I have to wonder what drugs the dude was on....
Normal SOP is use TASER if another officer is providing cover with a deadly weapon (pistol, shotgun, bazooka, etc)
Watch **Donut Operator** channel for more of these and a breakdown of the event and the related laws...
It looks like she was shocked into inaction when the guy got up.
Well, it will matter for the LEO who shot a guy on camera plunging a knife into another police officer, if it came to a trial, but riots? No.

You got it. For pepper spray it’s 25 feet because it takes longer to act. The good thing, however, about pepper spray is if you have any doubt at all, you can just hit them and say ‘sorry’ later.
And it is only good as a delaying tactic. The move after deploying pepper spray is to run and call 911.
My cousin brought two jewels back from the FBI shooting course:
Draw fast and shoot from the hip, watching where the bullets hit for correction.
Shoot FOR the hip/groin.
