He was about to wingardium leviosa the cop's gun, so he shot him before he could open his mouth to activate the skill, since the hand movement was already done.

whatever gesture he made was the worst decision of his life. wtf even was that? Think he's a fucking wizard?
can't blame the cop, that's a stressful situation and any small move is probably startling. looked like a throw almost.

he held the other knife by the blade, a showing that he may have thrown it, so cop reacted. May have been a bad shoot but if the cop says he was threatened enough by a quick movement, then it's justified.

“Put down the gun”… “(Lady) Where are you? Come to my voice, stay where you are”….. “You know me”….. 5 shots! This cop should be fired and tried for murder. That's all this is. MURDER!!!
Recounted, I think it's 7 shots. My bad

If only there was something this guy could have done to avoid getting shot. Like not be threatening people with a deadly weapon or dropping the knife when asked to. All you ; "It looks like he was about to put the knife down." Need to shut the fuck up and realize that not only can you not predict the future but also putting down a knife and dropping a knife is two different things. Maybe if you retard left your basement you'd realize that sprinting 6ft and stabing someone in the neck takes about 1-2 seconds maximum.
He was told to drop the knife, he didn't do it, he got shot, that made him drop the knife. Maybe if retard didn't act like an overgrown toddler throwing a tantrum he wouldn't have been shot. The reason the cops showed up was because he wanted to act like a maniac. It's 100% his fault for getting shot.

He didn't die. News sources say he's continuing to recover in hospital.

Absolutely legally justifiable. They were withing 10ft or so of a guy armed with an edged weapon refusing lawful orders. We just saw the other day how deadly knives can be with that BWC footage of the Officer getting his throat cut.

Kneecaps. Simple as.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Yeah, it's not like we have large blood vessels in our legs. If the femoral artery is hit you have max 7 minutes before the suspect bleeds out and a leg injury has never made anyone unable to hold and swing a knife. This is of course if you can hit the leg, cuz if you miss now the guy is angry at you, still armed and nothing prevents him from going to hide and wait to ambush you. That's now a barricaded suspect and all of this started because you want people in rapidly evolving situations to have the accuracy of John Wick.
Next you're gonna say "shoot the knife out of his hands, easy as that!"

Mate, do i need to go over every vital organ found at center mass? I thought the concept of a hollowpoint round expanding tiny metal shards into your kneecaps rather than organs vital to life to be very self explanatory.
Plenty of people lose legs or have them seriously mangled in accidents and have survived just fine.
I stg you bitches just argue for the sake of it at this point.

If anyone thinks this was too fast, watch the recent video where a cop approached a homeless guy and was stabbed to death. Someone with a knife can close distance very quickly.
If I'm a cop and in a situation like this..if there's any doubt as to whether I'm going home to my family ALIVE versus some mentally ill creep stabbing me to death? He's getting shot at the first twitch every single time. Fuck these mental cases.

Which is why you're not a cop and why the hiring process for many states have changed. Or at the very least you hurt the publics stance on police interactions because of ypur ignorant behavior. If he was trying to kill himself wtf was the point of the cop unloading the clip like that??? The cop who got stabbed to death didn't have his gun drawn or had any situational awareness. If you're by yourself always stay cautious until backup arrives.

It's not about my happiness. He shouldn't be, and will NOT be, I guarantee it. There was a woman 3 feet away from him, just out of view, and he made a movement, furtively or even slightly. Milliseconds matter when lives are on the line. Clearly, you're young and still kind of dumb. Hopefully your brain ripens a bit with age - not everyone's does.

Was the cops life in danger? Was the “ladies” life in danger? Where was this lady? And yes, 39 is too young to understand things. You're right.
As someone who's been a victim to how dumb cops are and can be and how they FAAAAR TOO OFTEN get away with, well exactly this, MURDER! I know first hand that they are 90% in the wrong 100% of the time. Yea, don't check the math, it's correct.

No dude it's called europe. A taser would be enough to take that guy down and just kick his weapon away instead of shooting. That guy looked and might have had a mentally disorder so shooting somebody like that would be the last thing you wanna do

You don't even need a taser. A riot shield effectively counters a knife with minimal risk to the cops. US cops need to start and learn to work in pairs or teams, not a bunch of individuals pointing guns.

I think cops should be able to carry light weight tranquilizers. Like the stuff they'd dose this guy with if he was at the hospital. Doesn't even have to knock them out just make them tired. You'd be surprised how quick the fight leaves someone when it hits your bloodstream. Try lorazepam first and work your way up

Yeah, Europe is ran by retards. You never use less lethal force against someone who is armed with a lethal weapon, especially in such close proximity. Go watch the video posted the other day of the cop being stabbed to death in a very similar circumstance, it's a perfect example.

I dont think the people defending this guy noticed that he had a female hostage. You're defending a guy who was holding a woman against her will at knife point. Also your defense is he MIGHT have been about to drop the knife. Cop phobia is crazy
