Just watched video and how are people defending this? they shot him 5 times, he fell still after the first shot so quite why 4 other shots were fired is really beyond me.

Probably standard police procedure I'm afraid, they cant rely on a single shot as the victim may still be able to resist somehow so they pump another 3 or 4 bullets into him just to be sure.

There is no attempt to incapacitate or arrest a living person rather better to have a bit of shooting practice and let someone else sweep up the corpse afterwards.

Only in America..........

Yep, two shots center mass (chest) and one to the head, because even a headshot isn't a guaranteed kill. Of course if you have five armed men you can just sort of plug away and be fairly confident of one good shot in there somewhere.

My millions of vids show the police are out of control in USA. This just one story out of many. The police can do what they want and no one seems to care in fact people like you seems to admire the unnecessary violence. But then I suppose the people 'got what they were asking for' and any way its their problem not ours.

Police performing welfare check on elderly Army veteran end up killing him instead

When James Howard Allen’s family members asked police to stop by his home for a welfare check on Saturday, they were hoping authorities could help ensure he was safe.

Instead, their request set in motion a series of unlikely events that resulted in the 74-year-old North Carolina man’s death.

Allen was killed by an officer’s bullet, the result of a confrontation that occurred when officers from the Gastonia Police Department entered his home and found Allen, an Army veteran, pointing a handgun at them.

Now, relatives want answers, and two official investigations are underway.

“I am so hurt that he had to die like this,” Allen’s sister, Mary Battle, told ABC affiliate WSOC. “Maybe the police were frightened. Maybe they were. I don’t know. But he wouldn’t hurt a fly.”

Gastonia Police Chief Robert Helton said at a news conference that police were initially dispatched to the home around 10:20 p.m. on Saturday, according to the Charlotte Observer. When nobody answered the door, the officers left and were asked to perform a check of local hospitals in search of Allen.

At 11:30 p.m., after officers failed to locate him, police returned to Allen’s residence with local fire officials, according to the Observer.

“A decision was made to enter the house, concerned that he may be inside in need of emergency assistance,” said Helton, the police chief.

Before entering through the back door, Officer Josh Lefevers announced his presence, Helton said. Once inside, Lefevers encountered Allen, who was pointing a handgun at him.

“He was challenged to lower the gun down,” Helton said at a news conference. “The gun was pointed in the direction of the officers, and a shot was fired that fatally wounded him.”

Why did police feel the need to enter?

Authorities had been made aware that Allen recently underwent heart surgery, Helton said, according to the Gaston Gazette, and were “concerned that he may be inside in need of emergency assistance.”

Lefevers was placed on administrative leave while police conduct their own investigation, according to the Observer. The North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation is conducting a separate investigation into the shooting.

Allen’s family members are demanding more information. His brother-in-law, Robert Battle, told WSOC that Allen “probably woke up, someone’s breaking in on me, so when you’re by yourself you try to protect yourself.

A friend, Otis Thompson, said he can understand why Allen a gun in his hand.

“You kicked the man’s door in,” he told the station. “He’s disoriented and he’s in his own house, privacy of his own home; my first reaction would be to grab a gun, too.”

This is the story Arista isnt interested in. BTW This happened just a couple of weeks ago.

Not its Valid



But I am sticking to the Title
[USA: police shoot homeless man dead in Los Angeles]


Because you Never Ever gab a Cops Gun
Fact

[user104658]

Random, untrained crazy people managing to get hold of police officers' guns seems to happen a LOT in the US. Bit odd, isn't it? I think I have found the solution. They need to start training their officers in how not to be disarmed by random civilians. Seems like pretty basic stuff bur apparently not. Back to school, cops.

Tl;dr - a trained police officer should know how to keep hold of his firearm, if he doesn't he shouldn't have one in the first place

USA has a population of 300,000,000 and around 800,000 police

Its easy to take the odd story about the police and try and extrapolate this to represent all police. Every hour of the day thousands of good police stories happen in the USA but they dont make Youtube

Girth you just do not understand scale or law enforcement

I'll answer this seeing as it mentions me

Do you understand law enforcement? Dont pretend like you do. All I'm saying that USA police seem to be killing an alot of people unnecessarily IMO.

I think when you are thinking you are just about to be shot at close range you kind of pull the trigger a few times more
to be safe

OK then have you been in that position?

There are two policemen punching him in the face... he isn't shooting anyone.

There seems to me a discrepancy between what we've been told and what we can actually see with out own eyes here.
Never has my sig been so apt.
