He was fleeing the scene of a shooting with a gun in his hand. He may not be the shooter per say but he must have been involved in the dust up.

Exactly what they'll say about any good guy shot by a cop while ccwing near someone else's gunfight.
Consider that these are the two pictures mainstream sites picked up off social media to accompany the article:

From his facebook shortly before the incident:
He still could've been innocent, just a good guy who waited to long to re-holster after a DGU.

True....but he also could have been running away with the actual shooter who did get away.Consider that these are the two pictures mainstream sites picked up off social media to accompany the article:

If you are a good guy with a gun you don't run away. You stay put and co-operate with the authorities. Why was he running? Why was his gun out of his pants pocket? He was properly licenced and if he wasn't there with the real shooter running away was the worst thing he should do.
Your a Cop, there has been a shooting, people are down, in rapid fire a person is running towards you, gun in hand, quickly,, what do you do.
I have long said I would make a lousey Cop, I'm a shoot em first and sort out the innocent later kid of guy and wouldn't last long on the force.

Aside from not being Black, I guess this i just another reason why CCW-holders need not feel required to be heros. Save self and loved ones, judge the situation and take the risk if you feel morally compelled.

Starting to sound like there might be a legit reason to wear a CCW badge and/or sash after all.![[shocked]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/007.gif "Shocked [shocked]")
Most definitely the best & safest combination:
Group buy?

Saw somewhere that the responding officer may have actually shot the girl.
Don’t remember where I saw it and I have no way of corroborating it.

Three fatal shots to the back, nice shooting. Cops retracted the 'brandishing' claim, so i guess the guy was just guilty of RWB? Running While Black.
