Get this. In Greeley, CO a cop was finally cleared in a Feb. shooting of a bad guy. Said bad guy was reaching for a gun whlist the unnamed officer was investigating a suspicious vehicle parked in a high crime area.
As the cop approached the car he observed the “gangster” reaching for a gun that was resting on his lap. The officer told him several times to not reach for the gun!! Did the chump listen…of course not. He grabbed the gun and was pulling it up. The obvious indication would be to shoot the cop.
In defense of his life the cop fired and had a respectable shot group. The goof was then given first aid. After transfer to the hospital he was declared DRT
Everything was recorded on the officers body-cam…thank God. OK everybody had the info and the video of the incident. Why in the hell did it take these “officials” so damn long to clear this cop??
Almost every day cops are cleared of silly, unsubstantiated complaints and incidents due to their body-cams. Please turn yours on!
