Officers just killed a guy in the house right across the street v.again for me

Tenant of the lady living there (along with her 9 year old) apparently assaulted the woman and she called the cops, told them he had a shotgun, etc. Roomie's uncle was coming home about the time and said he saw the lady and the kid heading to the car.

Well the cops went to the basement stairs and told him to put the gun down, he raised it up and a cop shot him 3 times. Roomie's uncle was like oh snap because he heard shots (I was down in the basement at this point) so I went back upstairs, a bit later they brought him out on a stretcher, not even covered up.. couldn't see the wounds though. Was pronounced dead at hospital.

Will link it up once I see it online.

This isn't the first time that this has happened around where I lived. Back in 2003 I was home when police and ambulances responded a couple of houses across the street that I was perpendicular to, that I could see easily from my front yard, to a much more tragic event in a rural area of NoVA. Here's a recap:

They don't cover them up until they are dead. Its hard enough to breath after getting shot 3 times and even hard if they cover your face.LOL

I never have a gun out unless I plan on using it. I might be wrong. This is only my opinion but, you don't point a gun at a cop and expect to live long. The cops shoot to kill.

Some people actually use this as a form of suicide. "Suicide by Cop".

Yeah, there are also a lot of dumb-asses that think they can do what ever they feel and nothing will happen.

Yeah I got the news that he was pronounced dead at the hospital after making the thread. It was kinda cold out guy could've used a sheet on the rest of his body at least :silly:

He meant people that do it purposely.

Really? Dang! Don't mind me, I just fell off the turnip truck.

That's a horrible thing to have to see.
