While in many cases USA black is clearly violent and life threatening to law enforcement officers, this video shows police are most at fault for killing the suspect.
I serve in military and to be specific, the police unit of the military. The engagement rule is you shoot only when life are in jeopardy, and in this case, it is not. I was taught to target the legs and not the torso. And once the suspect is being debilitated, do not fire anymore shots. The police hit the target 3 times.
USA police certainly have professionalism issue.
Oklahoma police have released an extremely graphic body-camera video showing an officer chasing and shooting down a black man suspected of making gun threats. The first-person clip was meant to justify the cop’s actions, but raised controversy.
In the video, Muskogee, Oklahoma officer Chansey McMillin is seen arriving to investigate a 911 call, which said an armed man was threatening a woman. The call was made by the local Pastor Andre Jones, and was about a woman attending a church wedding, who reportedly turned out to be the suspect’s girlfriend.
The officer asks Walker, who is seemingly nervous, to relax. However, the suspect then breaks away from McMillin and sprints down the road, while the officer immediately chases him, readying his weapon. Seconds after, Walker drops something on the road and abruptly stops to pick it up.
At this moment McMillin fires five shots at the man, with three of them hitting the target. Walker falls to the ground – he was later pronounced dead on the scene. Police searches his body and picks up an item, which is said to be the suspect’s handgun, but is not clearly visible.
