Even if the guy HAD discharged a weapon. NO EXCUSE to wildly unload a clip like that in what looks like a residential neighborhood. They can't even see what they're shooting at.
This was not a heartfelt apology at all!!
Who needs hollywood, when police in america provides the entertainment.
I hate these officers, especially the female officer who added to the situation and probably took her partner's word for it, instead of hearing any such gunshot for herself. Such tribal behavior among those who think they are above God to enforce life and death and to then think to appease another citizen with a sallow apology, which to me words that hold them in contempt toward their random person of interest. I know aggressive dogs love barking at strangers because of the adrenaline game they get out of what their target is thinking, then lose interest and walk away if they don't get any sense of fighting action from it.
Its madness how many bullets he put into that patrol car, without even confirming anything. Im wondering why his legs went numb, mini heart attack?
Is she really shooting into a car 30 yds away while backing up…….wow!!!
That shows you how afraid they are. You have no business being a cop. What I don't understand is what are you shooting at, what's your target?
If your that scared at your job quit!
Fully searched , nobody that fired a gun that day is innocent. Said from the Sargeant get in the house, get in the house, the public was not even safe. Thank God the detained man is okay, as well as the public.
Cops newest weaknesses.
Acorns my friends,
How embarrassing
Both officers need to be charged with attempted murder
Guy in the car – "Im going to get my life right. Im done committing crimes."
5 mins later…
Cop- "SHOTS FIRED!!!"
Lawsuit
Sometimes I feel like a nut, sometimes I don't..
Only in USA❤
🤣🤣🤣
If chicken little had a gun:
Attempted murder. Reckless endangerment, vandalizing a police car, unlawful use of excessive force , Thats just the tip of iceberg.
If this isn't F'd up enough their not showing you the rest of the video.
When all the backup arrived they made the guy sit up in the car so they could see his silhouette, they shot out the rest of the car windows around him with him sitting there, then made him show his hands which were handcuffed behind his back. The guy sat in jail for a couple hours then was released with no charges.
they're actually VERY lucky those 2 cops were incompetent at handling their firearms
So they just searched him, had him handcuffed and in the back of police cruiser. Enter the acorn. And in a matter of seconds this man goes from unarmed, detained, and secured to armed, barricaded, and deadly without even knowing it. Do not watch jump scare movies with this former policeman.
No, they failed all the way through, including the female officer. The first officer should be in prison for tempted, murder, and the female officer should be in prison for a aiding and abetting
Thanks Chip and Dale, now the Tax payers have to pay for a brand new Police Car
😂😂😂
High standard 😂 30 days of training and a gun giving to enforce the laws they didn't have enough time to understand
Is this a comedy sketch…😂
😂
Pathetic and sickening, these officers are not an asset to the community…
How dumb are these cops on the stupidity scale?
