I don't know if it has been posted here yet. I think it's a good example of how things are not always as they appear. There are 3 camera angles one looks like the BG was gunned down from behind the other 2 show the true story

That is kind of scary!! They shot the crap out of that guy. I see the bg turn around with something in his hands, but I am unclear what exactly he had in his hand. If it was gun then I can see why they shot him, but if it wasn't a gun then I would say they might be in some hot water.

lok at all three cameras. one shows him turn and "aim" something at the cop on the left another shows him jerk to the left and then the cops start shooting.

wow. that is pretty messed up. what exactly did the bg have in his hand?

he turned towards unit 185 I think and pointed it like a gun, but then turned away.

all hell broke loose after that. couldn't tell how many rounds were fired, more than a dozen though I think.

I can't get it to go unless I copy & paste it .But it's worth the trouble

I don't know what that object in his hand was, but I'd have shot him if he pointed it at me in a threatening manner.:scrutiny:

from what iI read it was either a lighter or a cell phone.

He may have been able to get away better if he wasn't always pulling up his @#$%&*%#!!#$%#$ pants.

If yer gonna talk about this particular incident, keep it civil so it doesn't get locked down like the last one.

Looks to me like the guy got what he was asking for.
