Here is a YouTube video of the encounter.
The officer who was also there, but didn’t fire his gun has been suspended or something.
If we want to end drunk driving arrests, just change the law.
Yes it is a shame his daughter probably watched her dad die on video on her birthday.
thank you for the share of the video. truthfully i never watched the news and had no idea he was already tazed once but kept going and then tazed the officer, makes sense a bit at why the lethal choice was next as they had no more non lethal. hindsight, they knew who he was and possibly just have let him run off, arrest later. not saying that what should have happened, it was just a thought.
but he really tossed those two officers around like rag dolls, so maybe it was not just the alcohol in his system. people do weird stuff once the cuffs come out. personally i hated it and it instantly makes you feel helpless and caged.
now we have two officers ruined, and one dead guy. the officers were imo pretty darn polite and respectful and calm until the bad guy freaked, i think they never thought he would switch ON and become a fight.
burning down wendys sure didnt help afterwards. we have to get this under control.
we dont need a change in DUI or other impaired drivers laws, DUI and impaired drivers are murderers in my eyes
